So i don't have to do anything else than setting the path in the 
"general" settings to my path?
what video files can mythtv play?
and does it matter that the files are in subfolders in this directory?
i got a folder "filme", and the video files are in a subfolder with the 
name of the film

i am sorry for all this questions
many thanks
Daniel
