I've just put a new version up on the wiki.

It fixes all of the TODOs bar implementing a "flag all unflagged recordings"
mode. Maybe when I can trust it to not go haywire... :-)

So it now pulls the MySQL config from mysql.txt, automatically works out
$RECORDINGSROOT by querying the database for storagegroups, sets a skiplist
instead of a cutlist (but can optionally copy that skiplist to the cutlist
automatically), and specifies that bash should be used as I use some
bash-specific features.
