Hmm, thanks to Jay for the free legwork and informed perspective and thanks
to Paul for pointing out I was looking at the wrong information. I was
going by the MythZoneMinder page in the wiki (
http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/MythZoneMinder) that states the shared is still
required.
I posted a similar inquiry in the ZoneMinder forums at
http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=20861 but have gotten
no reply. I will do a bit more research as time allows and then try to
capture some updates to the wiki page.
Thanks to both of you.
David
