I don’t know. I have not had to modify it. I recall finding the update statement in an older shell posted on the mythtv wiki. I did have to modify the statement when I upgraded to v.28.


I ‘cheated’ with regards to the location of the recordings, since I only use one location. If you use multiple locations in your setup, things will need to change.

I also had to start using —login-path-local when mysql was upgraded. google will help you with it.

Regards,

Is there anything I need to do with the database to make mythtv find the new transcoded file, and will mythtv still manage the original file or do I need to do it myself or delete the original?
