I created a new playlist in MythFrontend, add tracks to the new 
playlist.  Whilst the FrontEnd was playing the new playlist, I had a 
look on MythWeb.  The New playlist was shown on MythWeb, but empty.  
After I exited out of the Frontend, the New playlist shown on MythWeb 
was showing the added tracks.
