Comment:

 Ok I can reproduce the problem, I just don't see an easy solution without
 disabling tag reading for m4a/aac. It's not a MythTV bug, it gets stuck in
 the mp4ff metadata library.

 As a workaround you might uncheck the tag scanning option in the mythmusic
 settings. This will fall back to establishing artist/album/track metadata
 from the file path.

 For trunk I'm looking at the forthcoming mp4 support in taglib, a 1.6
 release isn't far away but we may also opt to keep our own copy of the
 library.
