Maybe I am miss-reading the above, but I am not getting this to work for me.
I am running trunk 14785. I have added PINs for level 2, 3, and 4.
When MythVideo starts, it is in level 1.
I can switch to any other level without being prompted for a password.
Prior to this patch, I had a PIN and would be prompted for changes to
all levels.
I was hoping to have different PINs for each level ( except 1 ).
Maybe I am missing something.
Any help would be appreciated.
