No, you were (correctly) running as user mythtv and it
has r/w permission.
When you did this:
daryl at trieli:~$ sudo chown -R mythtv:mythtv /home/daryl/.mythtv
You made the owner:group of *ALL* user daryl's directories/files
mythtv:mythtv. You didn't want to do that (Mike's warning was
spot on, as you were running as user mythtv.)
Hang on for a sec before making any more changes.
