Johan,
    The place to look for what happened when MythVideo used tmdb.py is 
to check your frontend log. Entries there will indicate what happened.

     To find what the command line switches are just type at a terminal:
 > /usr/local/share/mythtv/metadata/Movie/tmdb.py -h

MythVideo only uses these switches:
"-v" to get version information on the grabber
"-l xx" for specifying language code
"-M 'movie title'" to find a list of matches to a movie title
"-D XXXXXX" to find the metadata details for the specified movie 
reference number

     Note that MythVideo does the actual image file downloads, tmdb.py 
provides the urls to those image files. To get metadata for the movie 
you were looking for the command line would be:
 > /usr/local/share/mythtv/metadata/Movie/tmdb.py -D 9799
