Hey...


So i have an issue with a setting that i need to fix remotly and not locle. The reason is.. I'm @ work and the box is @ home :)

So the issue is... i set up my myth box to save all it's recordings to /video. well video folder is on the wrong partition!. So i have trired to make a link from that file to where i want it to be and it's giving me operation not permitted. So i figure I have to change where the files are saved in the myth tv config file. However.. I do not know where it is.. and i can not seam to find it int he mysql server tables.

Can you help me?

Look in the 'settings' table for the 'RecordFilePrefix' record

when you tryed to make the link where you logged in as root ?

Hey,

yes i did and make the link when i was logged in as root :)

i basically did this.
Code:
root@mythtv:/myth# cd /myth
root@mythtv:/myth# ls
avimanager  gallery  image_cache  music     nuv2disc  recorded  tmp  video
backup      games    lost+found   mythburn  pretty    stream    tv
root@mythtv:/myth# link recorded ../video
link: cannot create link `../video' to `recorded': Invalid cross-device link
root@mythtv:/myth# link recorded /video
link: cannot create link `/video' to `recorded': Invalid cross-device link
root@mythtv:/myth# link recorded video1
link: cannot create link `video1' to `recorded': Operation not permitted
root@mythtv:/myth#


also.. there was not setting in the mysql table for the location to save recordings into.

ok.. I found that setting in the database.. and changed it

now when i try to start the backend it does this.

2006-04-25 10:18:27.478 Enabled verbose msgs: important general
/myth/recorded
/nfslockfile.lock: No such file or directory
Unable to open lockfile!
Be sure that '/myth/recorded
' exists and that both
the directory and that file are writeable by this user.


my ls -o for that directory is
drwxrwxrwx 2 mythtv 4096 Apr 25 08:44 recorded
