Oops, meant to. 0.25. 0.25.3+fixes according to dpkg (:

Wow... it's even WORSE in 0.26? When they switched to the 'new' music thing in 
0.25 I was almost ready to switch to xbmc, except that I /like/ mythtv. But I 
miss the 'old' mythmusic more and more every single day.

I do remember discussions about SOME of the fixes being merged, but nothing 
ever came of it.

Do you know where this fork is? I really don't like the idea of building my own 
mythtv packages (I used to do that kind of stuff all the time but I'm at the 
point in my life where I just want things to work already) but I might have to 
experiment with that.

Um.... but... but what if I made a brand-new playlist, and it won't let me even 
give it a name?...
