[mythtv-users] Automating the Video Manager

This may not be related, but is there any way to automate the process of
looking up the IMDB information on a video folder?  I have about 250 videos
in mine, and it takes around half an hour to press "right arrow, down arrow,
right arrow, enter, down arrow, right arrow, enter...." Sure, sometimes I
have to manually find the IMDB number, but it were possible for the system
to go through the list, lookup the IMDB number for each file, and for the
ones with a confident match, it would apply the information, and if there
were 2 or three choices, it would leave it untagged, leaving the user to go
through and manually handle the odd case, rather than the entire folder.
Maybe it's already possible, and I missed it?
