I got the import working, after I removed all SMB based directories from
the Default storage group!

I had two directories in the Storage Group 'Default':
/var/lib/mythtv/recordings
/media/ds2/tera/mythtv_recordings

The first one is a local directory. The latter is a mount to my NAS.
When I was importing an archived show, the NAS directory got chosen by
MythTV and importing failed. Importing did manage to create a file to
the directory, but its size is zero. (You can see it in the output I
attached).

After removing the /media/ds2/.. directory from the storage group,
importing started working.

Title:
  MythArchive import fails to copy file

Status in Mythbuntu, Ubuntu derivative focused upon MythTV:
  New

Bug description:
  I have an external hard drive that I have used to export Christmas
  programs so I don't have to have them on my MythTV year-round. In the
  past, this worked fine, but in the current mythbuntu, it is failing.

  In the mythfrontend, I get error 128 while the code is trying to run a
  mythutil copyfile operation.

  I ran this command from the command line to get more information.

  I've attached the command and the output.

  Looking at the source code online, I don't see that the ring buffer
  supports writing to a mythtv URI schema, even though it is documented
  as being supported. From what I saw, when writing is set to true it
  uses a FileRingBuffer.cpp which does not look to me as if it supports
  anything but a file system reference. But then again, my C++ knowledge
  is very, very rusty.

  The backend and frontend are on the same computer. I sometimes do use
  my macbook as a frontend, and so I have the backend configured to
  listen to the external IP of 192.168.1.3.

  I'm not sure if I have something not configured or if this is just a
  regression in mythbuntu/mythtv.
