video files and music files on separate frontend and backend
If you have a separate backend and frontend, if you put the video files and music files on the backend, will mythfrontend running on a different machine see the video files and music files? I can't seem to get it to work. I can connect to the backend system and watch tv, but if I try to view videos that I have on the backend, it doesn't see it. Any help would be appreciated.


Thanks,
Ang

MythVideo and MythMusic are frontend-only modules. The storage directories
for these modules must be accessible on the frontend, either on the local
disk or via an NFS or other network mount.
