Hello @
stuartk
First, thanks so much for this package - I too was a long-time mythicalLibrarian user and am happy that you have picked up and run with myth2kodi. I am in the process of updating my MythTV and Kodi installs on a new machine and have run into a question/problem with configuring myth2kodi that I am hoping you can help with.
In my setup, I have four physical drives for storage (drv1 | drv2 | drv3 | drv4). The four drives are separate disks but all are part of MythTV's default "storage group." I set the backend to 'balanced percent' which means it places new recordings on any of the four drives so as to leave the same rough percentage % of the four disks available. So MythTV sees four disks in one 'pool' it can use, but to my file system, there are four separate subdirectories at
/mnt/drv{1-4}/recordings .
In my previous mythicalLibrarian setup, mL would process each recording and move it to a /Episodes, /Movies, or /Showings subdirectory on the same directory level as the recording. So I had four separate /Episodes and /Movies subdirectories, each with a subset of my renamed & moved recordings. I simply pointed Kodi at all of those subdirectories as separate sources for Kodi's library. But in looking at myth2kodi's
myth2kodi.conf file, it seems to assume there will be only one primary "MoveDir" and only one "PrimaryMovieDir" for the entire set of my MythTV recordings, regardless of which of my 4
/recordings subdirectories it is located in.
I would like to have myth2kodi move the processed recordings into /Episodes and /Movies subdirectories on the same
/mnt/drv{1-4}/recordings path as the original unprocessed recordings, rather than moving every recording into a single /Episodes or /Movies subdirectory. Is there a way to define MoveDir, PrimaryMovieDir and PrimaryShowDir to do that? Or do I need to change the myth2kodi config to not move the files but instead create links? Or change myth2kodi.conf in some other way?
Thanks for any direction or help you can provide.
