Can anyone tell me where my custom scripts should be located

something else? I am running Lion, the latest version that

The problem isn't the location of your script, it's the location of
the MythTV perl module. You need to find MythTV.pm, and then do
something like:<br>
<br>
use lib '/path/to/MythTV';<br>
<br>
before "use MythTV". Of course, depending on how you installed
MythTV, it's quite possible that this perl module wasn't included.</div></blockquote><br></div><div>From all the /opt stuff it looks like you're using the MacPorts version.
