Recompiled against new (local) version of boost (not easy to clue in xbmc to use boost in a non-standard directory), there should be an easier way to override the include directories other than modifying Makefile.include directly.
Anyway, it now seems to be downloading my entire mpg movies from the mythbackend into ~/.xbmc/userdata/addon_data/pvr.mythtv.cmyth/cache/coverart! What's going on? It should only need to scan a short bit of video to generate a video thumbnail.
Update: I see from the previous posts, that it downloads the contents of the default storage directory. Since many users will only have the default storage directory in MythTV, the add-on needs to handle that case more sanely. The user shouldn't have to know how their storage groups are setup and the add-on should never download multiple copies of the recordings, no matter how the groups are setup.
