<div>A few days ago I realized myth was not using the second
directory in my Default storage group for storing recordings.
I'm not sure it ever was. It can play recordings from there
without issue. I can move a recording from the first to the
second and it will still play back. But it only seems to ever
create new recordings in the first directory. I came to know
this because the drive containing the first directory filled
up, even though myth was reporting lots of free space
available.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The first directory is on a drive internal to the backend.
The second is on a network-connected NAS, cifs mounted on the
backend. The directory has a+rwx permissions. Any
suggestions what to look at next?</div>

How do you think MythTV would know to use that second directory on
the NAS in favor of the local directory?<br>
<br>
I made the same mistake on my first installation of MythTV. Then, I
made a mistake in defining which storage group to use in my
adjustments, then I read, re-read and re-re-read the wiki. I was
tending to see what I was expecting, not what what was present,
based upon a misinterpretation of storage groups and how they
operate.<br>
<br>
Now, I'm using two different storage groups to record to, based upon
different recording profiles. Eventually, I'll dispose of the local
storage groups in favor of an iSCSI NAS setup. After I unhose the
server that was in storage for a few years and now has a motherboard
error.<br>
Or when I hit the lottery that I don't play and get a nice SAN. ;)<br>
