I did against CVS, not 0.10, although the changes on other directories
distinct than mythchannels are not really that much... but they are....

In analog I think it only affects to the "hue" column at channel table...
(If I don't miss anything else).
Did I understood that correctly? You want 0.10 instead of CVS?

Anyway, if you are interested in the DVB-s stuff that is still unstable, no
sense 0.10 for that, the player still have a lot of things to be done there,
although I'm getting the impression that the people is more afraid of don't
touching something that don't even work and discussing about the sex of the
angels instead of fixing that....
