Lost artwork

Post by flabbergast »

I moved my storage groups to another location on same partition in Kubuntu. Everything is working except artwork for videos (not recordings) is missing. I have several years of a tv series labeled like show1 show2 show3 and mythtv is not associating videos with the existing artwork. I don't want to laboriously go through all of these to refind artwork. Is there a way to connect the artwork to the videos again?

My crystal ball is out of order, please post additional information:
  • MythTV version ?
  • Combined frontend/backend?
  • A third party frontend like kodi ?
  • What do you see instead of the artwork, a picture with a question mark or simply nothing?
  • Do the log files for backend and frontend in

    Code: Select all

    /var/log/mythtv
    show any errors about missing artwork files?
  • Do the storage groups have correct permissions

    Code: Select all

    drwxrwsr-x mythtv mythtv
    i.e.: octal 2775 ?
  • Does Mythweb show the same behavior?
  • Have you made a backup of the database before the change?
