    There are enough options for sorting and organizing your recordings
that this simply isn't the case. You can make your recordings look pretty
much the same way they might look in MythVideo.

     The main problem I would see with ANY alternative viewer for Myth

goes for anything that's attempting to be a replacement frontend or 
something that's just trying to play raw recording files.
