Oh, and if two storage groups contain the same path... I'm not exactly sure<br>
if mythtv will properly report the storage group for the individual<br>
recordings. For example if both the 'default' and 'sports' storage groups<br>
share a particular folder, you may find that the recordings to the 'sports'<br>
storage group will report that they are in the 'default' storage group. I<br>
know that mythtv will allow recordings to be moved around the file system,<br>
thus between storage groups, so I suspect that it will detect all<br>
recordings in a particular folder as being part of just one storage group;<br>
not both.<br>

It actually stores the Storage Group with the recording metadata, but never stores the physical location. Therefore, MythTV would always report the correct Storage Group, even if there's overlap of directories among Storage Groups. That said, you're probably right that the Sports Storage Group (at least as described/envisioned) probably isn't necessary, and my other reply gave Paul a couple other, probably better, options for achieving what it looks like he wants.<div class="HOEnZb">
<div class="h5"><br></div></div></blockquote><div style>Thanks for the clearification Mike... I suspected that it did store the storage group in the metadata... but then I recalled that mythtv will let you move a recording from one storage group to another (at least at the file system level). Does it preserve the storage group even if the current folder containing the recording isn't part of that storage group? </div>
