Comment(by Simon Kenyon <simon@…>):

 Here is an alternative patch which gets the coverart storage groups from
 the database and then tries to find the coverart in those directories. the
 assumption (and i know it is bogus, but it is how i have set my system up)
 is that the files (if remote) are mounted in the same location as if they
 were local.

 e.g. two machines sanfrancisco (master backend) and newyork (slave
 backend)
 coverart is in sanfrancisco:/myth/sanfrancisco/coverart and
 newyork:/myth/newyork/coverart

 the url that is generated to retrieve the coverart is of the form
 pl/coverart/12345.jpg and there is a small perl module which streams this
 to the browser

 this means that the data/video_covers symbolic link is not required

 not proper storage group support, but a point on the way there
