Oh I found it. Pressing W... which I then need to add to my remote

probably more useful just to have M on ur remote - can access it via the menu

Can you setup mythvideo with a folder type setup?

At the moment all I seem to be able to get is a flat structure of all my movies in the one folder

Unless this has changed for v0.22 then it should work that way by default (I'm currently having probs geting 0.22 installed).

I have mythvideo setup to have folders instead of the flat view, I just selected (in the menu) "Change View" -> "Switch to Gallery View".

I also just set up my folders in the frontend mythvideo setup pages, didn't use storage groups.

I setup groups on the backend...

Now I cant get rid of them

Maybe this is why I can only have one directory?

Well I have had a big day. Spent most of the day under the house, I have now got my 32" LCD on the wall with all the wires within the wal cavity out of site. I also set up my mythtv box behind my couch and arm chair. It is all now out of the way and wires are all out of sight. Just need to get a wireless Wii Sensor Bar, and my hauppauge remote with ir blaster, another tv tuner, and the pvr-150 so I can capture austar input. I had to move my reciever/amp and my internet router too. It has been a big task but I think a LCD "hovering" on the wall with no wores is worth it. I now have more room too without entertainment unit.

Just finished so sat down with music dvd playing that I ripped to HDD on mythtv and thought I'd make this post.

As requested

Dam it, I have a problem using youtube on my eebuntu laptop and I just discovered that I can't use photobucket either

If anyone knows what I need to do to fix this then I can upload some pics for you all.

I have no idea where to start with this problem. Any ideas?

OK I got some channels, seems I just need to pay more attention to the numbering in the setup menus.

Check to se that you've assigned an input source to your tuners in the setup program.

Thanks! This was it.

I've added it to the OCAU MythTV wiki: http://www.overclockers.com.au/wiki/..._Member_Setups

All setup:

The poor old plaster wall has seen some action in the past eh... Nice outcome though

....although 32" of Barry Gibb, Geesh! 'how deep is your love' for that guy? Surprising how he is still 'stayin' alive' after all that 'night fever' from the drugs in 'massachusetts' . Partying 'alone' in his 'lonely days' I guess saved him though. Mind you, 'massachusetts' is the 'one' place where the drugs just aren't up to scratch, the dealers will do a lot of 'jive talkin' about the quality but when you get down to it, it's always 'tomorrow tomorrow' before you feel 'too much heaven'.

Wow, how long is the video cable in that setup?
