I forgot to mention that the built-in XBMC myth support (the myth:// protocol)
works
perfectly well on this XP machine and has no trouble accessing the recordings.

On your windows box, you have to mount the remote directory that recordings are
stored in. This would most likely map to a drive letter and this is what you
would
enter for the 'Recordings Directory' settings in Mythbox.

I ran into this also. I mapped "R:" to \\mythtv\recordings and I can browse that
fine, however if I try to stick "R:\" in as the recordings folder setting,
Mythbox
says it doesn't exist.
Oddly though when I browse recordings in Mythbox it's pulling up the PNG from
that
folder but not the video
*confused*

Can you try "R:" instead?

I have mapped \\mythtv\recordings videos and livetv to r: v: and l:. I tried
r:\;l:\;v:\; and r:;l;v;. Both give sound but no video in both recorded or
live tv. Also tried capital letters as well. I have windows 7, 64 bit and
mythbuntu release-0-23-fixes [24158] on mythbuntu 10.04 lucid.
The following is an excerpt from backend log while starting up mythbox script
and then trying to watch recording.

So I decided to just add r:\ to the videos and watch that without using
mythbox.... guess what .... no video.... Thus I think that the problem is
related to the original error that I found of "Error d3dx9_42.dll not found",
which I thought I fixed by adding the dll into the xmbc folder.
(http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?t=67711) Duah, not the right thing to do.
So obviously this is not the right place to post this... So why.... To help
others... If anyone knows how to properly install the missing directx dll in
windows 7, please let me and others know. Thanks.

got it... everyone on the link that I posted was linking to the directx
redistributable, not the installer.
