Every computer that runs the Backend of mythtv has it's own
RecordFilePrefix setting, any other computer can use that database, as
i do, by propertly configuring a ~/.mythtv/mysql.txt. But in this way,
i can't change the host in the database, because i still need the
backend to record locally.

Yes, and that part i use, but it's the path to the actuall files that
i can't pull from this database, because the info in the database is
for accessing them locally on the backend, not by my nfs mount of it.
