It's a little messy and doesn't currently cover databasebox, only playbackbox, 
despite what I said before (it wasn't finished). If we move to using the 
media monitor then it's not really relevant anymore. If you are still 
interested I can send you a copy - it's a tiny patch.

Aye. When a disk is inserted or removed the events would be picked up in the 
mythmusic event handler. Nice and simple.
