Maybe tempting fate, but the filename lookup process within MythArchive
does seem to be working now. I did have a few failures that I didn't
understand, and then one that clearly was caused by the local time/UTC
disparity, but a new run with input recordings made over several weeks
covering all recent changes has just completed without problems.
Perhaps a few recordings were made with the system in a transitional
state; or my python edits weren't quite right.
