[mythtv-users] Customizing the default menu

[jarpublic at gmail.com]

I searched the archives and wiki and found info about how to customize
menus. However these were generally focused on customizing an existing theme
like DVR that is in the /usr/share/mythtv/themes directory. I can just
duplicate those folders and make the changes I want. However, I use and am
accustomed to the default menu theme which seems to reside in
/usr/share/mythtv along with lots of other mythtv files. I just wanted to
add a couple of buttons so I initially just backed up the one xml file I was
changing and then made the changes in place. However, when I upgrade these
changes get written over. If I want to make a custom menu based off of the
default menu, what files do I need to copy out of the /usr/share/mythtv
directory? Is it all of the xml files there, because there are quite a few?
Alternately, since I am only changing a couple of entries in one of the
menus is there someway for me to just change the default menu and have these
changes remain persistant through upgrades?
