1. Just to be sure go into the directory as the user running the
mythfrontend process and type ls -l

2. Are you running storage groups for mythvideo? If so you don't need
to mount over nfs. Is your system confused over storage groups plus a
mount. I find this area rather confusing myself, but there is a
transition howto in the wiki that may be worth reading:
