    Mythweb has it's own problems. Although it's easy enough to route
around with your own bash, perl or php.

    Still, the new mythvideo section is a nice improvment over the old
one. I wouldn't have noticed it if you didn't mentioned it. Although
I am not sure I would call it a replacement for the video manager. Is
there a "filesystem" view of the data in the current video manager?
This would be a good thing to incorporate into mythvideo proper.
