[mythtv-theming] Theme with incorrect notification support

[Ted Verhagen]

Hi Jean-Yves, I'll have a look at it: to be honest: Haven't tried this
feature yet so I first need to setup in my situation. I thought I did
create the necessary xml code in the theme files (both MythAeon as
MythMediaStream) however I did not test it as I'm not share foto's via an
iPad of Android tablet... Will come back to this.

Cheers, Ted.
