Hi Mark,

Local file paths are deprecated and will likely be removed entirely by .25 (or at the latest, .26). I'm not comfortable applying this patch for that reason as it gives the mistaken impression that we are expanding support for this option, rather than removing it entirely in the near future. Thank you very much for the patch regardless.

Reopening as there's some code here that affects more than just MythVideo? (My bad), but note that the video scanner segment minimally should not be applied by whomever decides to look at the rest of this.

Absolute path testing fixups for win32 support

Currently for Win32 builds, local files can't be specified with drive letters for both recording paths and command execution paths.

Removed the video scanner portions at the request of Robert McNamara?.
