 Thanks for testing and the patches Bill.

 watching Live or recorded TV.

 I've already got this working using a slightly different method. I just
 send MythEvents when playback starts and ends. The music player listens
 out for these events and starts/stops as appropriate. Thanks anyway :-)

 >
 > 073-musicselect.patch - Play the first song of a group if you select an
 artist or album.  Mythmusic used to do this but it's changed in your patch
 and doesn't work with the miniplayer, anyway.  This patch makes it work
 with the miniplayer.
 >
 > 074-isplaying.patch - isPlaying wasn't initialized in the MusicPlayer
 class constructor.  This caused problems first time into Mythmusic
 (specifically, the visualizer would start without any music playing, and
 the Resume mode was ignored)

 I'll apply these to my local tree and hopefully sometime later today I'll
 roll out a new v4 patch for testing.
