I get the following message when trying to access MythVideo from within MythWeb:
Error
Could not create a symlink to /var/lib/mythtv/videos:/mnt/NAS/Film, the local MythVideo directory for this hostname (tvserver). Please create a symlink to your MythVideo directory at data/video in order to use the video portions of MythWeb.
I believe it's a small thing but not sure what to do...
Thanks

The symlinks in mythweb arent pointing to the right folder. Go to /var/www/mythweb/data and then create a new symlink
ln -s video your-video-directory

Just a nit, wouldn't the code be:
ln -s your-video-directory video
