	The code (as it currently stands) doesn't start from a directory, it reads 
database entries. To do this properly, you would probably want to think about 
a "category" column for the videometadata table (music, tv, film), and then 
make mythvideo able to take a category parameter on startup.

	But if you put things in directories (Music, TV, Film) and then use the Video 
List button, you get basicly the same result (without needing to modify any 
code). Unless I'm missing something in what you were asking for?
