could place them all in /blah/blah/Simpsons and then have the
database look for the files there via a directory entry than having
to have 300+ symlinks in his normal recording directory?
We're nearly there in SVN. We have support for including
"subdirectory" names in the recording filename (where subdirectories
are relative to the recordings directory). However, there are still
several places in the code that strip directories from the name. I
keep telling myself I'll patch this, but my HDTV upgrade has been a
much higher priority for me... :)
Check that. Works fine--for the most part. It looks like only one line
of code needs fixing, but it won't often be triggered (except by
"mythcommflag -f" and possibly autoexpire and it may cause recordings
that were recorded on a different host and placed in subdirs to be
streamed even if they're available locally and maybe a few others).
Line 1222 of programinfo.cpp is the culprit, but unfortunately, I can't
see an easy way to fix it. We can't just trim the RecordFilePrefix off
the left because it won't work with multiple hosts...

I can't think of a non-invasive approach to use. Ideas?
