So now, I delet everything under "Videos" storage group. It has NO directory path to anything. However, when I go to my frontend - I still see all my movies there! I scan it again, i restart mariadb, mythbackend (knowing this shouldn't matter) but still see all my Movies.

Ashu—

I don’t know why nobody else has asked this question; therefore, I will do so:

Why do you want to put your TV storage group within your video storage group?  There is a completely separate interface for playing recorded television programs, and it works rather well, too.
