Dear colleagues,

As Sebastian pointed in #988615, let me expand why the package is an 
improvement for bullseye.

The 19.1 point release has 80 bug fixes 
(https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/milestone/141?closed=1).
Most notable ones are:

* [Linux] Fix playback of optical DVDs
* [Linux] Fix text issues when turning on / off TVs
* [Music][Backport]Make MySQL native sorting functions more robust
* DNSNameCache: only use a reachable address listed by nmblookup (a critical 
functionality regression for Samba users!)
* [Backport][PVR][GUI] Channel manager does not rename backend channel when 
supported

Picking only these chains still results in ~80% of 19.0 -> 19.1 debdiff, so I 
expect approving the request as I tested it.

On Debian side, the release incorporates two Debian bug fixes and the fix for 
regression that smashed user input of date in PVR search box.
The latter bug was reported not via Debian but it took me several evenings to 
hunt down :)

The release is tested using amd64 / i386 LXC containers and no issues spotted 
so far.
