[mythtv-users] MythVideo: file name sorting oddity

No, you changed examples. (X3, X2, X) sorts to (X, X2, X3). However,
(X3.ext, X2.ext, X.ext) sorts to (X2.ext, X3.ext, X.ext).

This doesn't match what you see, probably because I didn't bother merging
the sort key (the things used when title sorting) fixes from trunk back to
-fixes (either because a release was imminent, or I'm lazy, likely the
latter).

Currently even switching to file name sorting would not fix your issue. If
extensions are compared (they are) then the "wrong" order I've given above
will be the result.

Eventually, something like Michael T. Dean's patch will probably be done.

I will try to get no-extension name compares in soon.
