Thanks,but what seems to be happening to me is I get 3 TV_Series entries
in the play video menu...
I have tried under mythtv-setup to enter the paths on one line like
/mnt/video1/TV_Series/ /mnt/video2/TV_Series/ /mnt/video4/TV_Series,when
I do this, setup thinks this is all one path and that it doesn’t
exist...I have tried , : ; as separators,but even that don't help... I
just can't find the proper doc's to get this set right....
I guess I need an example..
Thanks
