[mythtv-users] Storage group weighting

Raymond, that's exactly what I was planning to do.
Use my Drobo storage for long term storage & playback, my raid-1 2 drive
internal array for recording/commskip, and a script to copy stuff older
than 2 days from internal to Drobo.
Basically the internal array is a cache. Maybe one day I would even use SSD
here.
As the Drobo has approached 60% used it's becoming taxed with recording 3
HD, comm skip 2 and playback one at same time.

So, how do I do that? I did not see a place to have a storage group for
recording storage but not record to it...

I did run the backend with the suggested log flags and it didn't tell me
why it was not using the other storage group.
