I dont think its 4453.  I'm starting to think that the
mythweb host needs the storagegroup directory from the
slave backend nfs mounted so it can access the files
localally.  I have created a work around by running
mythweb on the slave backend as well as on the master
backend and using the following patch:

I can now download the mpg directly, stream via asx, or stream via flash
from either backend without using nfs.  the 0 byte thumbnail issue
is also resolved.
