'execute' permission on a directory mean the permission to read its
contents (not just its attributes) so without that +x (or better would be
+X which only modifies directories) MythMusic would not see any files.
A better way to get the database together would have been to drop ALL the
music related tables and then just scan for music again - just as if you
had just installed the music plugin for the first time - all the stuff
would have been created for you...
Its called 20-20 hindsight :-)
