I'm running MythTV from the Ubuntu Edgy packages, and importing a video
file I recorded outside of Myth.  When I try to play it, the player
indicates a length of 3600 minutes or some such thing.  Following
discussions on this list and what I'd found in the archives, I figure I
need to (re)build the seektable for the file.  So, I ran

$ mythcommflag --rebuild -v all --video King_PP_1.mpg

...which ran for about 10 minutes, with no apparent errors.  I then
tried watching again, and had the same result--3600+ minutes long.  I
took a look at the output from mythcommflag, and saw that it was storing
the data to the filemarkup table, so I tried

mysql> select * from filemarkup where filename like 'King%';

This returned 23656 rows that look like this:

| King_PP_1.mpg | 13583 | 4209696782 |    6 |
| King_PP_1.mpg | 13584 | 4210024462 |    6 |
| King_PP_1.mpg | 13585 | 4210364430 |    6 |
| King_PP_1.mpg | 13586 | 4210710542 |    6 |
| King_PP_1.mpg | 13587 | 4211070990 |    6 |
| King_PP_1.mpg | 13588 | 4211392526 |    6 |
| King_PP_1.mpg | 13589 | 4211732494 |    6 |
| King_PP_1.mpg | 13590 | 4212090894 |    6 |
| King_PP_1.mpg | 13591 | 4212449294 |    6 |
| King_PP_1.mpg | 13592 | 4212736014 |    6 |
| King_PP_1.mpg | 13593 | 4213086222 |    6 |
| King_PP_1.mpg | 13594 | 4213403662 |    6 |

I don't know much about seek tables, but it looks like the data is
there.  However, it doesn't seem to be available to the viewer (or
editor--when I press E to go into edit mode, it says there's no seek
table).  What am I missing here?
