The search path for files is goes ~/.mythtv > theme > default. This
allows files in your home myth directory to override themes, and
themes to override the default and the default to be used as a last
resort.

There are three different types of themes menu, osd, and ui. Myxer is
a ui theme and as such doesn't contain menus. Your MyMenus would be a
menu theme and would not contain xml files for the UI. All three are
independant of each other.
