Fixed places it can write are:
/var/log/mythtv - log files
/var/lib/mythtv - home directory which appears not to be used
/etc/mythtv - configuration files it reads

Recording location is user configurable so it can be anywhere including
remote NFS storage and can be divided into separate areas for different
types of multimedia. Since one of the many ways to access this area is
the web interface we have done the following:
semanage fcontext -a -t httpd_sys_content_t /export/recordings

Types of files written for video recordings are:
.mpg - mpeg video file
.mpg.png - image clip file

Then depending on need recordings can be post processed and transcoded
into many other formats like .mp4, H 264 format, AVI, and the list could
be quite long. We create a subdirectory in the recording area and store
the mysql database backups there which have an extension of .sql.gz. But
the backups could be configured to be stored anywhere.

Mythtv also uses mysql so we set the following sebools on:
setsebool -P nfs_export_all_rw on
setsebool -P httpd_builtin_scripting on
setsebool -P httpd_can_network_connect on
setsebool -P httpd_can_network_connect_db on
setsebool -P httpd_use_nfs on

My old notes indicate that we needed to do the following, but I'm not
sure it is still needed.
chcon -v -t httpd_sys_rw_content_t /usr/share/mythweb/data

This is a large application and we do not use all of it so there maybe
other places it can write. We do see NFS automount requests for places
that do not exist in our system. You might want to talk with Jarod
Wilson who works I think in your area for Red Hat. He has been a long
time user of Mythtv and may have done some development on the
application.

I will move this information to a bug report if I have all the
information you need.
