Hi,
I just installed freevo from sid repositories after a standard debian lenny 
install  with kde as a de.
I have just started setting freevo up and am keen to have it set up nicely to 
play music, videos and tv including timeshifting.  My question today is 
simply as which user I should run freevo.  I noticed that there have been 
audio and video as well as recording folders created in /home/freevo instead 
of in my /home/larry/freevo directory.
Should I move these folders or try and transfer my media collection to these 
folders. At the moment I don't seem to have permissions to copy files into 
these folders as a normal user (larry).
When I run freevo I get the following terminal messages:

la...@wetland:~$ freevo
You are not part of the group 'freevo', you cannot exploit shared resources 
(such as the cache). Your data will be saved in /home/larry/.freevo
Error: VIDEO_SHOW_DATA_DIR not found
ROM_DRIVES: Auto-detected and added "('/media/cdrom0', '/dev/scd0', 'CD-1')"

Error: can't find /home/larry/.freevo/static/TV.xml
Use xmltv to create this file or when you don't want to use the tv
module at all, add TV_CHANNELS = [] and plugin.remove('tv') to your
local_conf.py. TVguide is deactivated now.

init MpdBaseScreen
Plugin Interface items
MpdMainMenu init
Freevo 1.8.3 ready

I am mostly interested in the first two lines.  Any help with my setup here? 
My local_conf.py is mainly unchanged as yet.
Any tips for the mpd daemon? My music collection is an important part of the 
htpc.
Cheers, 
Larry
