I go to Setup->Video->Playback and then to the third (3/8) screen which
has 'Current Video Playback Profile' I do not see a 'right arrow' but a
button saying 'Delete' and another saying 'Add New'

I click the button to delete all the profiles one by one one. Then I
keep going to next few screens till I get to the 8th which has 'Finish'.
I click on it and I am back to the 'Video' menu.

Then I escape out of it and all the way till  exiting MythTVFrontend.
When I go back to Setup Menu, these profiles are back there again. What
am I doing wrong?

Even getting back into Setup ->Video->Playback without quitting the
front end, I see the old profiles still there. What gives?
