[mythtv-users] Mythmusic - CVS and other scary things

[Steve Dorsey]

Hello

   I FTPd my 24GB of MP3s across to the Myth box. Woohoo! It allowed me 
time to get some lunch.

   Now that the music is there, I am finding that accessing it is 
slooooooow. Myth lets me into the music listening area, and I can 
choose songs, but - even if I choose only 2 or 3 songs - response is 
painfully slow when playing them. I have thousands of tunes in the 
giant "select music" list, but only 3 songs are selected.

   I searched the gossamer threads, and I found a few (very colorful) 
threads dealing with database accessing and fixes or "patches". They 
mentioned CVS. All I know about CVS is that it is used for version 
control for developers. We used it once at a dot-com I worked at to 
keep track of changes for our back-end technology development. Since I 
was a web designer, I never needed it much. I just created templates 
and gave them to developers.

   Do I really need to install CVS to get these fixes for MythMusic? I 
sure hope not - I'm feeling like a developer more and more every day, 
and I'm not sure if I'm ready to be that intelligent. My head may 
explode.

Either way, good work, y'all. I appreciate your help.
