I figured out the problem. You need to specify the full pathname to mythcommflag. When given a relative path, would it be reasonable for mythcommflag to either guess the full pathname, or to refuse to operate? Also, the usage info should document this. (It would also be nice if the usage info went to stdout when produced because of -h on the command line.) I was also wondering why the filename is stored in the filerecorded table. Duplicating this info with every record seems like a bit of a waste (although maybe mysql is smart enough to store it only once)? Wouldn't it make more sense to use the intid from the videometadata table as the key instead (which might also get rid of the problem of relative vs. absolute paths)? Dan
