Does bacula-dir.conf side require "Media Type" and what should that be
if does? Or do I omit "Media Type" and have "Autochanger = yes" instead?
The example below uses the same "Media Type" for every device in the
autochanger -- contrary to what the fine manual seems to suggest --
should I do that and then (presumably) use "Media Type = File1" in
bacula-dir.conf?

The fine manual reads like "Media Type" is very important and must be
present, but the autochanger device below doesn't have it. TFM also
implies Bad Thinkgs(tm) will happen if multiple device have the same
"Media Type" ("File1" below).
