That's cool! I didn't know about the webserver.

And it showed me what the errors are (I think):

2012-09-27 17:07:42.828290 E  SG(Default): Unable to find any Storage Group Directories.  Using hardcoded default value of '/mnt/store'
2012-09-27 17:07:44.794495 E  SG(Default): Unable to find any Storage Group Directories.  Using hardcoded default value of '/mnt/store'
2012-09-27 17:07:44.806523 E  ProgramInfo(1726_20120927165900.mpg): GetPlaybackURL: '1726_20120927165900.mpg' should be local, but it can not be found.

But I did enter storage directories into the setup and I see them in the database... Do you know what this could be?

Thanks again, Monty
