Well, I've finally gotten around to enabling htauth on this server.
Same problem.  I did use basic instead of digest, as the person who
wrote up the step-by-step on the wiki did, and perhaps that's the
problem.

To reproduce:

	1) Recorded Programs
	2) Choose a program title from Show Recordings
	   (Boston Legal, 4 eps)
	3) Observe that the programs are displayed in reverse order by
	   airdate.
	4) Click the column header Subtitle
	5) Expected: same 4 episodes, sorted alpha ascending by
	   subtitle
	6) Observed: Show Recordings reverts to All Recordings, all
	   programs in fact display... sorted alpha ascending by
	   subtitle.

This is from a package named

mythweb-0.20.2-2

retrieved from Packman, built for SuSE 10.2 with a uname -a of 

Linux potato 2.6.18.8-0.5-default #1 SMP Fri Jun 22 12:17:53 UTC 2007

If there's any further information I can provide, please let me know.
