Re: [mythtv-users] NFS and mythfrontend only

[Chad]

Maybe it's just my poor setup then, but I have to NFS mount my /video
directory to play the videos.  What I mean by videos are the RIP'd
DVD's (filename.avi), not the recorded programs (filename.nuv) which
ARE playable via the connection.

Any thoughts?

Thanks.  

Just for my own understanding then, how do remote frontends get access to the
servers /video/* files?  

For more detail see the RemoteFrontends page on the wiki.
I doubt this applies to 'videos' in the media library as xine and 
mplayer don't use the mythtv protocol.
I suspect they will need nfs. I don't know about the Internal video player.
Bruce - correct me if I'm wrong... (and kindly explain how xine/mplayer 
get hold of avi's via the backend so I can update that page...)

yes, you do need to share your video and image section via smb or nfs..
When setting up a mythtvfront end only, aside from pointing frontend to the
backend database, do I need to share out /video via NFS as well?

Thanks.  

Just for my own understanding then, how do remote frontends get access to the
servers /video/* files?
