Hi,<br>
<br>
Firstly, thanks for all the effort put into MythTV. It's really nice
having something so full-featured that's also open source.<br>
<br>
Yesterday I finally got around to converting some of my DVDs to
files with handbrake so MythTV could manage them. But I'm finding
that when I run <b><tt>mythutil --scanvideos</tt></b>, mythvideo
thinks they are all the same file because they all hash to
QUERY_FILE_HASH.<br>
<br>
This is with self-compiled software 0.27.3-159-g2d4a7c9.<br>
<br>
To boil this down a little, I hid all my video files and ran a video
scan to start with a clean videometadata table.<br>
Then I un-hid a file that I had originally imported in late May,
that was in the database with hash ef7a3d3b5f93a941.<br>
I re-ran the video scan and saw this in the system log:<br>
<br>
<blockquote>
<pre>mythbackend[14089]: I VideoScanner videoscan.cpp:164 (run) Beginning Video Scan.</pre>
<pre>mythbackend[14089]: I VideoScanner videoscan.cpp:393 (buildFileList) buildFileList directory = myth://Videos@sunraycer/var/lib/mythtv/videos/</pre>
<pre>mythbackend[14089]: I VideoScanner dirscan.cpp:256 (ScanVideoDirectory) MythVideo::ScanVideoDirectory Scanning Group (myth://Videos@sunraycer/var/lib/mythtv/videos/)</pre>

<pre>mythbackend[14089]: I CoreContext metadatafactory.cpp:601 (customEvent) Video Scan Complete: a(1) m(0) d(0)</pre>
</blockquote>
..and this in mysql:<br>
<br>
<blockquote>
<pre>MariaDB [mythconverg]> select intid,filename,hash FROM videometadata;</pre>
<pre>+-------+-----------+-----------------+</pre>
<pre>| intid | filename | hash |</pre>
<pre>+-------+-----------+-----------------+</pre>
<pre>| 10 | stomp.mpg | QUERY_FILE_HASH |</pre>
<pre>+-------+-----------+-----------------+</pre>
<pre>1 row in set (0.00 sec)
</pre>
</blockquote>
Now, the system I have today is not the one I had back in May - I
rebuilt it around Mint 17 (14.04) recently, and back then was
probably on Mint 13 (12.04).<br>
Is there some system configuration thing I could have botched when I
rebuilt? Or is this a genuine bug?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
