Thanks for the excellent HOWTO, it got me over the hump toward making Mythweb useful.

I did run into one problem with the section on "Modifying Mythweb to View Recordings". After I make the symbolic link from my video directory to Mythweb, I can no longer run the Video Manager from the Myth front end. It just locks up, presumably stuck in an endless loop trying to import videos by examining the video directory finding the symbolic link that points back to the video directory, etc. If I remove the symbolic link, the Frontend Video Manager work fine, but then Mythweb can't find the vidoes.

Anyone else having this problem? Any suggestions?

--> Ok, I removed the requirement for the MythWeb symlink. See the updated code. Mrsdonovan 19:47, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
