It might help if you take a quick glance at the documentation,
especially http://code.google.com/p/mythdroid/wiki/InstallNotes

As mentioned in the aforementioned installation notes, this is a bug
in MythTV that was fixed in trunk a while back (r23381). You can
either upgrade to 0.23rc1 or apply the patch mentioned in the 0.22
section of http://code.google.com/p/mythdroid/wiki/InstallNotes.

JYA: Any chance you could merge r23376 and r23381 into your 0.22 packages?

Some features depend on MDD. (See http://code.google.com/p/mythdroid/wiki/MDD).

It selects the first defined frontend (See
http://code.google.com/p/mythdroid/wiki/UserGuide).
