[mythtv-users] Playback permissions problem on standalone frontend

I've been running a virtualised MythTV backend for a while but decided to
build a new one and migrate to that because of some problems it was having.

After installing from MythBuntu 14.04 ISO and importing the database from
the old machine everything seemed to be OK. Recordings are on a NAS over
CIFS so I didn't need to migrate them.

Here's the problem... I have a standalone frontend and it can watch
recordings made on the old backend just fine, but any new recordings made
on the new frontend are are not accessible.

I guess it's some sort of permissions thing but I don't know what. The
mythtv users on both old and new backends have the same ID: mythtv:x:115:124

I know the recording is being created because the backend also has
mythfrontend on it and the new recordings are playable, so the problem is
only when playing back on the standalone frontend.

Can anyone suggest what the problem might be?

Regards,
Phill
