Most important advice: going to unstable/development is basically a
one-way process. You can't downgrade a database to -fixes/stable, after
using it with any unstable/development apps. Therefore, you can only
downgrade after restoring a pre-upgrade database backup:
http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Database_Backup_and_Restore (which means you
lose any changes that occurred when running the unstable/development
code). If you really want to try, just enable 0.25pre--and sign up for
(and catch up and keep up with)
http://www.mythtv.org/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-commits and
http://www.mythtv.org/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-dev .
