I'm letting the files play to the end, and they are much longer than 10 
seconds. It retuens to the list at the end of the file.

Yes. I am selecting the "Done" button and pressing space. I am not escaping 
out of the dialog. Oh, and I'm using mplayer. But I don't expect that to 
matter, I would expect mythvideo to run the player command for the next video 
regardless of what the player command is.

I haven't tried before now with the browse dialog, I always use the list 
dialog. I have too many files in a detailed directory structure to browse 
them all as one huge linear list. I didn't find any keys that will browse by 
more than one file at a time. (And I don't have the patience to press key on 
my remote hundreds of times to get halfway through the alphabet. ;)

But to answer your question, I just got out the keyboard so I could test from 
the browse dialog. So, yes, it does fail for me from both the browse and list 
dialogs.

(btw, I've always thought that the browse and list dialogs are named 
backwards. The list dialog lets me browse, and the browse dialog is a linear 
list. :)
