[mythtv-users] Mythfrontend on a laptop

[Greg Miller]

If I just transfer the nuv files how will Myth know what they are? I guess I
was hopeing for some sort of tool that would allow you to select specific
recordings or a group. I guess I'll have to brush up on my sctipting or
learn perl, and write it myself.

Thanks for the tips.

Greg

Or use samba. Or ftp even? You should juet be able to transfer the .nuv
files from whatever directory you have your recordings in to your laptop.
