#1304: MythVideo Internal player can not find files

 Priority:  minor           |   Milestone:          
Component:  mythvideo       |     Version:  head    
 Severity:  medium          |  
----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
 I have a 2 box setup, the backend is on a headless pc, the front end is
 near the tv. both boxes have nfs access to the video drive (which is a
 seperate drive/mount point than the recorded shows drive).

 When I set the mythvideo default player to "Internal" and select a file to
 play it fails to play the file. the main error seems to be:

 RingBuf(myth://:/Top Gear - [06x01] - 2005.05.22.avi):
 OpenFile(myth://:/Top Gear - [06x01] - 2005.05.22.avi, 12)

 not sure what to do to turn this into /<path to videos>/Top Gear - [06x01]
 - 2005.05.22.avi


 If i change the default player to mplayer %s it works fine (the "Directory
 that holds videos" setting is correct)

 here is a cut'n'paste from my 'mythfrontend -v all' log:
