As I just explained, MythVideo just hands off playback to some other 
program, be it an external player, or the internal playback routines. It 
has no way of knowing if you exited playback manually with 'esc', or if 
the player simply returned at the end of the video.  Either way, you 
will have returned successfully, rather than getting an error.
