[Bug 674837] Re: mythtv 0.24 frontend does not find videos in the media library

 

Well, you are right. As a long time user of mythtv, I think the setup is
becoming more and more confusing, and naming of things are not lending
themselves for some intuitive approach.

With mythvideo I now learned than I had to press M and select a scan.
Than I had my videos.

Makes me wonder: why does a backend a scan at its start and finds all
the videos automatically, and stores them automatically, and when I use
mythvideo, I still need to tell it manually to do the same thing that
had already been done?

Status in “mythtv” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete

Bug description:
Binary package hint: mythtv

mythtv 0.24 frontend released version with fixes 27204 does not find any videos although directories are set correctly. file and directory permissions are set sufficiently, also evidenced by the fact that the backend finds them correctly

from the backend log file:
2010-11-13 09:33:14.620 UPnpMedia: BuildMediaMap VIDEO scan starting in :/home/videos/video:
2010-11-13 09:33:14.704 UPnpMedia: BuildMediaMap Done. Found 90 objects

also, as verified with phpmyadmin, the mysql table upnpmedia does contain all videos correctly.

this is a regression from previous mythtv versions (0.23, .22, .21) where this worked correctly
