This patc in http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/2579 will also probably
be necessary for the moment, even with svn trunk. Otherwise the playback
code won't recognize OpenCable video streams, which at least for my
Comcast cable in Detroit covers every channel that is not native ATSC.
The streams are recorded correctly (including the video stream) but the
playback code can't find the video stream so it can't play back the
recording.
