I want to store my TV recordings on a second hard drive.
Here's what I have done.
Created the directory VideoRecordings on my second hard drive
named BigDisc using Nautilus
Modified owner and permissions of the VideoRecordings folder:
napier at Colossus:~$ sudo chown mythtv /media/BigDisc/VideoRecordings
napier at Colossus:~$
napier at Colossus:~$ sudo chgrp mythtv /media/BigDisc/VideoRecordings
napier at Colossus:~$
napier at Colossus:~$ sudo chmod 777 /media/BigDisc/VideoRecordings
napier at Colossus:~$
napier at Colossus:~$ sudo ls -l /media/BigDisc/
total 24
drwx------ 2 root root 16384 2011-10-04 23:27 lost+found
drwxrwxrwx 3 napier napier 4096 2011-10-09 17:31 var
drwxrwxrwx 2 mythtv mythtv 4096 2011-10-11 20:43 VideoRecordings
napier at Colossus:~$
Went into MythTV BackEnd Storage Groups and changed the Videos
group to point to /media/BigDisc/VideoRecordings/
I changed the LiveTV group to also point to my new drive when
the above didn't work
Recordings still go to the Default Group,
/var/lib/mythtv/recordings/
Some of the reflectors and forums I've searched over the past
two weeks say to also go to the Video Library and do a Scan For
Changes. I've gone through the FrontEnd and BackEnd screens,
but I can't find it.
Here is my configuration and logs:
