Right. This was fixed back in September (
http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/2420 ) and the fix was merged to
0.20-fixes at the beginning of October.
BTW, you do /not/ want to use 0.20. You should be using "stable"
0.20-fixes (from SVN as described at http://svn.mythtv.org). It has /a
lot/ of fixes in it.
