You could try:

- Clicking on "Apply" after the Refresh button has changed colour back
to normal to indicate the download is complete.

- Restarting Mythbuntu Control Center.

- Running "apt-get update".

I think what it is supposed to do is put a file
"mythbuntu-0_26-precise.list" into /etc/apt/sources.list.d, but there
may be other things it needs to do too.  The contents of my
mythbuntu-0_26-precise.list file is:

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/mythbuntu/0.26/ubuntu precise main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/mythbuntu/0.26/ubuntu precise main

It may also need to put # characters at the start of the lines in the
mythbuntu-0_25-precise.list file to comment them out.

The above presumes that you are running Mythbuntu 12.04.
