Post subject:  Migrating to Storage Groups, How do you do it?
I currently have 2 extra drives in my system that I use for storing my Videos, /myth2 and /myth3
/myth2 stores my Adult Movies (no they are not that type of Movie :P )
/myth3 stores my Childrens Movies
I have /myth/video symlinked to /myth3/video and there is a symlink within /myth3/video to /myth2/Adult
So when you look in MythVideo you see all the kids movies and a folder for Adult movies, nice and easy and separated.

I am now using MythTV 0.23 and have found that MythWeb requires you to use storage groups, when I first tried to setup the Storage Groups I found that it was rather tedious as I had to set all the fanart, coverart etc.

What is the easiest way to migrate my current configuration across to storage groups so that I can get MythVideo to still look like it currently does? Can I simply point the Storage Group to the symlink directory (/myth/video) and it will work like it does now?

Thanks and looking forward to your feedback.

I had to create all the directories like fanart under /myth/video then add them as part of the storage groups. One thing that happened when I did this is that MythVideo displays a background of the fanart when you select the movie.
