[mythtv-users] DVD Rips on NAS?

[Jason]

I store everything,  including live recordings, on a samba share off a
NAS box.  Then I access the whole thing over 802.11g.  Works fine as
long as I have a good strong wifi signal.

The place where you made your stand never mattered,
only that you were there... and still on your feet
