I want to store recordings on 3 reiserfs filesystems (each of which is a complete HDD) which are mounted at α/mythdata0, α/mythdata1, and α/mythdata2. In the first setup, my default storage group consisted of a single directory: α/mythdata0/recordings. In mythfrontend, Information Center -> System Status -> Machine Status reports __ System: [3 lines omitted] Total Disk Space: 466 GB total, 268 GB used, 198 GB (or 43%) free. 89 hours and 30 minutes remaining, using your average rate of 5120 kb/sec 89 hours remaining, using your maximum rate of 5174 kb/sec __ that's OK by me. In the second setup, my default storage group consisted of 2 directories: α/mythdata0/recordings, and α/mythdata1/recordings. In mythfrontend, Information Center -> System Status -> Machine Status reports __ System: [3 lines omitted] MythTV Drive #1: Directory: hyatt1:α/mythdata0/recordings 466 GB total, 268 GB used, 198 GB (or 43%) free. 89 hours and 30 minutes remaining, using your average rate of 5120 kb/sec 89 hours remaining, using your maximum rate of 5174 kb/sec MythTV Drive #2: Directory: hyatt1:α/mythdata1/recordings 149 GB total, 33 MB used, 149 GB (or 100%) free. 67 hours and 30 minutes remaining, using your average rate of 5120 kb/sec 66 hours and 30 minutes remaining, using your maximum rate of 5174 kb/sec Total Disk Space: 615 GB total, 268 GB used, 347 GB (or 56%) free. 157 hours and 45 minutes remaining, using your average rate of 5120 kb/sec 155 hours and 30 minutes remaining, using your maximum rate of 5174 kb/sec __ that's OK by me, provided that the previously undefined term: ""MythTV Drive"", is a synonym for ""a directory in the default storage group"". In the third setup, my default storage group consisted of 3 directories: α/mythdata0/recordings, α/mythdata1/recordings, and α/mythdata2/recordings. In mythfrontend, Information Center -> System Status -> Machine Status reports __ System: [3 lines omitted] MythTV Drive #1: Directory: hyatt1:α/mythdata0/recordings 466 GB total, 268 GB used, 198 GB (or 43%) free. 89 hours and 30 minutes remaining, using your average rate of 5120 kb/sec 89 hours remaining, using your maximum rate of 5174 kb/sec MythTV Drive #2: Directories: hyatt1:α/mythdata1/recordings hyatt1:α/mythdata2/recordings 149 GB total, 33 MB used, 149 GB (or 100%) free. 67 hours and 30 minutes remaining, using your average rate of 5120 kb/sec 66 hours and 30 minutes remaining, using your maximum rate of 5174 kb/sec Total Disk Space: 615 GB totel, 268 GB used, 347 GB (or 56%) free. 157 hours and 45 minutes remaining, using your average rate of 5120 kb/sec 155 hours and 30 minutes remaining, using your maximum rate of 5174 kb/sec __ and that is completely unacceptable. I added 149 GB of capacity to the default storage group and mythfrontend reports that the total disk space did not grow at all. MythTV seems unaware of the directory that I added to the default storage group. (I know from the results of other tests that the capacity of α/mythdata2/recordings is 149 GB.) Second, since the description of MythTV Drive #2 says that it has 2 directories, my hypothesis that ""MythTV Drive"" is a synonym for ""a directory in the default storage group"" must be incorrect.",Bug Report - General,closed,minor,unknown,MythTV - General,0.27-fixes,medium,Won't Fix,,,0
