Hi,

I upgraded to myth 0.23 and I found some
awkward features. Mythweb now wants that
videos are in the Storage Group. No problem,
I created a Storage Group pointing to /home/videos, which in turn
contains links to all my video directories:

[cascavel:~/videos] dir /home/videos
total 36
drwxr-xr-x.  3 roma 4096 2010-04-29 06:14 .
drwxr-xr-x. 22 root 4096 2010-04-29 05:42 ..
lrwxrwxrwx.  1 root   17 2010-04-29 06:14 videos1 -> /mnt/dados/videos
lrwxrwxrwx.  1 roma   18 2010-04-29 05:44 videos2 -> /mnt/dados/videos2
lrwxrwxrwx.  1 roma   18 2009-07-11 07:17 videos3 -> /mnt/dados2/videos
drwxr-xr-x.  9 roma 4096 2010-04-29 05:48 videosCG

Then, I had to create a symbolic link in mythweb/data:

[cascavel:~/html/mythweb/data] dir
total 12
drwxrwxr-x.  3 apache 4096 2010-04-29 05:53 .
drwxrwxr-x. 11 apache 4096 2010-04-27 22:14 ..
drwxr-xr-x.  2 apache 4096 2009-11-28 17:09 tv_icons
lrwxrwxrwx.  1 root     12 2010-04-29 05:53 video -> /home/videos
lrwxrwxrwx.  1 apache   28 2010-04-28 16:49 video_covers ->
/home/roma/.mythtv/MythVideo

The problem is that only the Internal player plays videos in the Storage
Group,
and it does not display subtitles.  If I add a local storage (outside the
Storage group),
I can play its videos with mplayer (and the subtitles are back), but mythweb
can not.
Furthermore, since myth 0.23 is not supporting pulse audio (at least for me,
it does not work)
I have to use this command to trigger mplayer inside myth:

[cascavel:~/html/mythweb/data] more ~/bin/mythplayer
#!/bin/sh

/home/roma/bin/mplayertv "$1" -zoom -ao alsa:device=hw=0.0

Also, IMDB is no longer supported because of license issues,
and I would like to know how to retrieve a movie metada.

Either I am loosing the point here, and I am over complicating
my set up, or myth is the one which is getting over complicated ...

Does anyone have a better solution?

Thanks.
