Thanks - you have encouraged me to start hacking...
Just had a look at the sources - I use Gentoo and the ebuild builder
script - and it looks pretty straight forward. I'll attempt by hacking the
main archive file with a copy of MythMusic straight out of master, rebuild
the manifest and see if it flies :) I've got a spare chroot I can play
with.
Did you find you only had to rebuild the music plugin and copy the
relevant xml files across?
Cheers
