I'm sorry if I am inconveniencing you in some way. I appreciate the time you and everyone else have taken to reply to this message, but I disagree with the accusation you have made that I am "withholding information". On the contrary, I am providing as much information as I can and where I have not provided the required info, I have been more than happy to follow up with the missing information.

Whilst it's off topic here, I must say in my defence that I had discounted NFS from being the cause of my previous live TV issue in my own local troubleshooting, before asking anyone for help, due to the fact that MythTV was writing successfully to the NFS share.

What local, unrelated issues are you referring to in this remark?


> And why use NFS to start with?

I use NFS for storage as I am lead to believe this is the 'done thing' when sharing storage between two machines.

Again, please let me reiterate that I'm trying to help myself as much as possible in troubleshooting things myself, before bothering any of you on this list.

Kind regards,

Joe
