DVD ripping does not work until 'Directories that hold videos' is filled with a valid path

[Peter Nauta]

Mythbuntu 9.10, AMD64
As soon as this path is filled with a valid path like the default /var/lib/mythtv/videos, a DVD can be ripped.

This was an oversight on my part in my enthusiasm for video storage groups. Unfortunatly, there isn't a whole lot that can be done to fix this until 10.04

[Peter Nauta (pnauta)]

I don't know where this is stored (mySQL, xml) but surely this can be dispatched as a patch? Otherwise, how about alerting the user during the installation procedure?

[Thomas Mashos (tgm4883)]

This info is stored in the DB. I can fix it for new installs on Ubuntu, but
any existing installs or anyone that installs using the ISO's are going to
run into this problem. The best I can do for 9.10 is make a note on the
release page.

OK, that will be cool.

Unfortunately there is no easy way to fix this for existing installs, and this problem may fix itself if version 0.23 of MythTV is released in time for Mythbuntu 10.04. If 0.23 is not released by then, then the plan is to fix the 0.22 database in 10.04.

[MarcRandolph (mrand)]

I meant to say that there is no /automated/ way to fix this for existing installs. The user will have to do the configuration changes himself, as the original reporter suggests.

[George Bredberg (joje47)]

Im sorry, I dont understand what to fix with the rather scarse information supplied by the reporter.. Can someone please just make a short description on what has to be changed in db for it to work?
I only found the table "storage_group" but the settings there seem to be fine. Please just point out where its wrong so I can use it again.. I dont find 'Directories that hold videos'..

[Thomas Mashos (tgm4883)]

George, take a look at this page. It talks about something else, but should get you where you need to be.

This bug was fixed in the package mythtv - 0.22.0+fixes23527-0ubuntu1

---------------
mythtv (0.22.0+fixes23527-0ubuntu1) lucid; urgency=low

  [ Mario Limonciello ]
  * New snapshot (r23527)
  * debian/mythtv-database.postinst:
    - If the mythtv.cnf conffile is missing, don't freak out. (LP: #477926)
  * debian/control:
    - Build depends on libvdpau-dev for armel too. We don't know if
      tegra2's will be using VDPAU, but if they do, this will help.

  [ Thomas Mashos ]
  * Populate directories to hold videos in prefilled SQL file. (LP: #469583)
