[mythtv-users] MythVideo probs

[Piers Kittel]

Hello all,

Am trying out Myth Video, as I'm using the SVN version, I did:

svn co http://svn.mythtv.org/svn/trunk/mythplugins
cd mythplugins/mythvideo
qmake mythvideo.pro
make
su
make install

then started mythfrontend.  As expected, mythvideo wasn't showing up - I 
had the same problem with mythweather and mythwifi.  So I hunted around 
and found the libmythvideo.so to be in 
/lib/mythtv/plugins/libmythvideo.so and copied it to 
/usr/local/lib/mythtv/plugins/libmythvideo.so like the README file said 
it should be in, but whenever I try to open "Watch Videos" I get an:

VideoDialog: Couldn't find your theme.  I'm outta here
gallery - video-ui

and then the frontend crashes completely.

When I try "Utilities/Setup - Video Manager" it crashes with an:

MythVideo: VideoManager : Failed to get selector object.

mythfrontend -v all doesn't show any more error messages.

What am I doing wrong here?  I note whenever I compile and install a 
plugin, it's always installed in the wrong directory.  Why is this and 
how should I do it right?

Thanks very much for your help in advance.

Cheers - Piers
