[mythtv-users] New errors since moving to trunk

Apologies for following up my own post, but to try to narrow this down I've
just temporarily removed my NAS drive from the storage group and created a
short recording on the internal drive, and the problem still persists:

2010-09-23 14:58:01.081 Preview Error: Run() cannot generate preview locally
for: '/var/lib/mythtv/recordings/13080_20100923145400.mpg'

Permissions on /var/lib/mythtv/recordings are:

     drwxrwsr-x 2 mythtv mythtv 4096 2010-09-23 14:57 recordings

And the recording file that was just created:

     -rw-r--r-- 1 mythtv mythtv  171111584 2010-09-23 14:57
13080_20100923145400.mpg
