 The Scan Videos function in MythWeb picks up various droppings from having
 the videos storage shared via AppleShare/netatalk.  Most noticeable is
 .AppleDouble folders, which contain lots of normal-looking filenames that
 are really just Apple-specific metadata for the files of the same name in
 the parent folder.

 Comparing to the code in MythVideo, it appears that MythVideo excludes any
 files or directories that start with a dot, which is why running the same
 scan with MythVideo doesn't pick them up.

 I'm attaching a patch that changes the behavior with regards to dotfiles
 to match that of MythVideo.
