[mythtv-users] 0.22 The .iso / Storage groups problem

[Johnny]

>   The general concensus seemed to be that it was simpler at the FE level if most of the videos were handled by storage groups, which have several advantages over the traditional approach.

The main advantage is you don't have to setup the frontends, but that
is only an advantage if *all* of your videos are in storage groups. If
you do the hybrid setup it actually becomes a disadvantage because now
you are doing the local setup and the storage group setup. The other
main advantage of storage groups is being able to distribute your
video library storage across your network, but if you have all your
videos on one system then that isn't an advantage. So in general it
would be easier and simpler to just go without storage groups rather
than doing the hybrid approach.
