The actual fliename is "Presidential Debate #2 (Manual Record)-10.07.08- Tue
Oct 7 20-55-00 2008- No Description.mpg". I think I messed things up as I
got tired of Mythrename.pl randomly working and added the mythrename command
to my crontab, and it must have renamed the file while Myth was looking for
the default filename? Argh I'm silly. Dunno how to fix this though (other
than taking out mythrename command from crontab whcih I just did hehe).

Thanks
Bob
