I might be nitpicking, but in imho all the translations should follow a common
style. For german, the language selection is already translated. But thinking
about it, it makes more sense to me to always display a languange in
it's own word. So Swedish would always be shown as 'Svenska' no matter
what language is currently selected. Reason being that swedish people
might not recognize 'Swedish' as their mother-tonge but will know
'Svenska' immediatelly. Ok, poor example as the swedish people are known
for their english language skills but you get the idea.

If others agree we'd need to collect the proper spelling for all available
languages in mythtv.

So here's the first one for easy reference :-): "Deutsch".
If everyone can figure out the language, we don't even need to add an 
english translation.
