Yep, silly me, I did not realise that I had to install all those pesky 
modules on the front end as well.  Makes perfect sense.

As things stand I now have a Videos optin under the media option, but no 
videos showing up.

But for now I hve to get busy doing other things, and I'll get back to 
MythTV later.  I expect the advice I got earlier about groups etcetera 
will aply now.

Thanks for peoples' help and patience
