To re-cap for those reading the thread for the first time:

We have recorded programs, they are in the DB, they are in the
harddrive, we can see them with mythweb

_____BUT_____

When we try to watch recordings from the frontend, the list of
recordings is empty.  No errors from either front or backends!!!

[end recap]

Paul, it looks like we are the only two people out there with this
problem.  Let's see if we can narrow things down a bit...

I'm running Debian Unstable, did not use the .debs (I will soon if I
can't get this to work.)  When I did use the .debs everything worked
great.  I thought I'd learn something if I did everything from scratch.

The problem does not seem to be in the permissions.  If I run
back/frontends as root and change mysql.txt to run as root, I still get
the same problem.

As I mentioned, I am pretty sure that if I apt-get mythtv everything
will work HOWEVER, I'm pretty sure we've stumbled upon a bug that needs
to be squashed!!!

Now, before I get flamed.  I am pretty sure that it is a setup problem
that we have BUT the fact that I get no errors or warnings is, IMveryHO,
a bug.

Any ideas anyone may have would be greatly appreciated.
