How do you specify Freevo to use /var/lib/freevo instead of /var/cache/freevo? If /var/lib/freevo exists, you will use that if it doesnt use /var/cache/freevo or does Freevo search both all the time? BTW I like the idea of using /var/lib/freevo. I know you can adjust the record schedule with the  TV_RECORD_SCHEDULE variable in local_conf but what about the other files?

Static Favorite should be in their own file; so you can make a daily backup, in case of coruption IMO.

Sorry about the bug tracker; I didn't set out to test Freevo last night, it just happend :-)

Thank you Justin, forgot about record_schedule.xml as I move this to
/var/lib/freevo. The patch is applied in r8333.

In fact, I move logos, overlay, TV.xml and record_schedule.xml to
/var/lib/freevo as these are not really temporary files and cannot be
safely removed without breaking the system.

record_schedule.xml is horrid file as it contains both static favourites
and dynamic schedule, removing it you lose your favourites.

Do you think that this should be changed.

BTW I would prefer if you use the bug tracker for these because I will
generate the change log from the bug tracker and I link the svn commit
to a bug. If it is only in the devel list I *will* miss certain changes
and big fixes. There are other reasons too why I like the tracker.

TIA
Duncan
