Hi.<br><br>I decided to change my old-ish debian lenny setup (my main backend + frontend) to openSuSE 11.2, so that it's consistent with the other computers at home. Boy, is this a bumpy ride!!<br><br>Luckily, I am using a separate HD, so the previous installation isn't destroyed and I can experiment with the new setup until I have perfected it.<br><br>The main problem I am facing now, is that I can't get the new backend to scan the storage group Videos for ... videos. It hangs at 0% for hours. "Top" shows high cpu usage for mysql and mythbackend, but no results.<br><br>The new setup is identical in nfs mounts, /myth location and LANG settings to the old debian one. Pointing the Videos storage group to a full-Ascii-path subfolder of the main folder succeeds in filling up with films. But when in mythtv-setup I point it directly to a Greek characters folder, upon pressing Enter I get a strange translation:<br>Instead of <br>/myth/video/storage/Παιδικά/<br><br>I get <br><br>/myth/video/storage/Παιδικά/<br><br>(I wish I could say it's Greek to me, but... I think it just looks Greek to you ;)<br><br>The entry stored in mythconverg is the correct one (I checked with phpmyadmin) but what I get on the screen is wrong. And mythtv-setup won't exit, complaining that the strange folder doesn't exist.<br><br>The output of the locale command is <br> <br>LANG=el_GR.UTF-8<br>LC_CTYPE="el_GR.UTF-8"<br>LC_NUMERIC="el_GR.UTF-8"<br>LC_TIME="el_GR.UTF-8"<br>LC_COLLATE="el_GR.UTF-8"<br>LC_MONETARY="el_GR.UTF-8"<br>LC_MESSAGES="el_GR.UTF-8"<br>LC_PAPER="el_GR.UTF-8"<br>LC_NAME="el_GR.UTF-8"<br>LC_ADDRESS="el_GR.UTF-8"<br>LC_TELEPHONE="el_GR.UTF-8"<br>LC_MEASUREMENT="el_GR.UTF-8"<br>LC_IDENTIFICATION="el_GR.UTF-8"<br>LC_ALL=<br><br>on all systems (debian lenny, opensuse 11.2 and another opensuse 11.2 which is the main storage server).<br><br>At this point I must mention that I tried just to import a mythconverg dump in the new system (even the host name is the same) but the mythbackend process kept dying on me a few seconds after it started). So I started with a blank db, etc.<br><br>Is this a misconfiguration on my part?<br><br>Can someone help me?<br><br>Thanks in advance,<br><br>Yianni<br> <br><hr>Hotmail: Δωρεάν, αξιόπιστη και αποτελεσματική υπηρεσία email. <a href="https://signup.live.com/signup.aspx?id=60969">Αποκτήστε το τώρα.</a> <br /><hr />Hotmail: Αξιόπιστο email με την ισχυρή προστασία ενάντια στην ανεπιθύμητη αλληλογραφία που παρέχει η Microsoft. <a href='https://signup.live.com/signup.aspx?id=60969' target='_new'>Εγγραφείτε τώρα.</a></body>
