We really do appreciate you opening this ticket to help improve Mythbuntu, but it needs to be closed for a number of reasons. The biggest one is that the upstream MythTV developers have limited resources and have turned their efforts to newer versions and and are no longer fixing bugs on this version of MythTV.
The Mythbuntu team has builds of newer versions of MythTV available on a PPA if you are interested in upgrading. Please follow the directions at http://mythbuntu.org/auto-builds to enable them. Please do not let the closing of this ticket dissuade you from opening a new ticket if this (or any other) problem occurs with the newer versions. WARNING: If you need to have the ability to revert back to your current version, you will need to back up your database before upgrading so that you can later restore it, since newer databases can not be downgraded.
