MythArchive uses wrong hostname if frontend 'Custom identifier' is set

[J.Pilk@…]

MythArchive? is configured by the frontend, but mythburn.py reads its configuration using the hostname of the backend. In 0.24-fixes it worked. Probably a change in the imports. Works for me after a locally-valid patch, but I don't know how to make it general.

MythArchive? reads its profile name from the Python bindings, and the Python bindings pull their information from config.xml. In 0.25, MythTV still supported the use of the old mysql.txt, which is where you specified your alternate profile name, and since the Python bindings do not read that file, they defaulted back to the local system host name.

Starting with 0.26, mysql.txt no longer exists, and the alternate profile name will be stored in the config.xml where the Python bindings can access it and provide it to MythArchive?, making this no longer an issue.

It's still an issue in 0.25-fixes, though. That still stores in mysql.txt and doesn't store in config.xml.
