[mythtv] MythTV: Windows frontend

I have installed the filters on winxp and the picture is horrible.  The
audio sounds great, but the picture looks like it is scrambled.  Do the
filters work with myth11 or do I need CVS?

The filters will work just fine without the shell extensions.
I woudn't be surprised if win98 did something different than winme that
breaks the filter, I'll see if I can do some debuging on a win98 computer.

I have seen the explorer crashing on win9x/me too (works fine on winxp). I
did find one problem that can cause explorer to crash, but there migt be
more.

I'm developing the filter and shell extensions on a winxp computer so that’s
why there might be problems with win9x/me, but I'll try to make it work on
win9x/me too.
