Are there any docs that describe the split between mythfrontend and
mythbackend? Where are the files stored, which has the tv cards, which
has the database (backend) and so on. This seems to be missing from the
website docs.
The backend has capture cards. The frontend plays back recordings and
executes the plugins (MythVideo, MythMusic, MythGame, MythWeather,
MythGallery, MythNews, MythBrowser, etc.).
Files can be stored on any network-accessible filesystem. Database can
be on any network-accessible host. In other words, the filesystem and
database are not "a part" of Myth. The same holds true for Apache--if
using MythWeb, it can be hosted on any web server with network access to
the database and the backend.
All of these can be on the same physical machine or can be spread out
across as many different machines as you have to spare... In other
words, there's no requirement for a particular configuration (which is
why it's not really documented--too many variations possible).
