[03:28:06] mack: " a mounted bind directory via etc/fstab, AND a hard linked directory. " Depending on the situation, this might be a really bad idea.
[03:29:00] mack: "The default directory is a very undesirable location" Change it :) It's configurable so you can change where it points.
[03:30:29] mack: "It will tell you that a recording is "Failing", but won't tell you why." You touched on this in another message. There are too many possible reasons, and most depend upon a users specific setup therefore impossible to programmatically say.
[03:32:40] mack: "there should have readouts of the signal strength and quality" This stuff is printed in the log, but yes, the only friendly display is when you're watching livetv. You could get a general feeling of the strength by watching a station that broadcasts from the same location.
[03:34:48] mack: " more detailed information about the drives that are in use." As Scop pointed out, this is by design. With correctly configured Storage Groups/Directories, this information isn't useful.
[03:36:36] mack: "deleting the default directory, but MythTV adds it back." There needs to be a default for if something comes along that doesn't match the conditions to go into custom groups/directories.
