Hey Paul.
Afterwards looking at the Troubleshooting page again and founding out 
the problem about the pyxml i get the log lines etc. But anyway fixed 
the missing part and it's starting to show logfiles etc

I started out with using /usr/share/mythtv/mytharchive as root for 
mytharchive.
Since my root partition is 500GB - I think there's enough free space 
there - since my movies,recordings and music and placed on seperate 
mounted discs.
So in the mytharchive I have the following Dirs
# ls -lah
totalt 44K
drwxrwxrwx 11 myth users 4,0K 21 feb 23:57 .
drwxr-xr-x 12 root users 4,0K 28 dec 15:35 ..
drwxrwxrwx  2 myth users 4,0K 21 feb 23:16 config
drwxrwxrwx  2 myth users 4,0K  2 dec 17:57 encoder_profiles
drwxrwxrwx  2 myth users 4,0K  2 dec 17:57 images
drwxrwxrwx  2 myth users 4,0K  2 dec 17:57 intro
drwxrwxrwx  2 myth root  4,0K 21 feb 23:58 logs
drwxrwxrwx  2 myth users 4,0K  2 dec 17:57 music
drwxrwxrwx  2 myth users 4,0K  2 dec 17:57 scripts
drwxrwxrwx  7 myth users 4,0K  2 dec 17:57 themes
drwxrwxrwx  3 myth users 4,0K 21 feb 23:58 work

So there's should be the rigths there's needed. But could it be caurse 
I'm running the CoreBackend on a server and the frontends on other 
machines. Caurse this error keeps getting this particular error:

Hotel 4$2008-02-22 06:39:20.413 ERROR: Unable to open source file

Why is there a problem with the Source file?
The setup is using NFS to Share /storage from the Backend Server - and 
are mounted on the frontends at the same place!
172.16.20.10:/storage/music on /storage/music type nfs 
(rw,addr=172.16.20.10)
172.16.20.10:/storage/records on /storage/records type nfs 
(rw,addr=172.16.20.10)
172.16.20.10:/storage/movies on /storage/movies type nfs 
(rw,addr=172.16.20.10)
172.16.20.10:/storage/pictures on /storage/pictures type nfs 
(rw,addr=172.16.20.10)

And all other functions in that matter works great.
Grabbing Music DVD into the System.
Getting the DVD recording and shows them different frontend.
I'm using the user myth all over the system instead of root but the user 
have read,write access to it all so it shouldn't be there the problem is.

Thanks for the help!
