Thanks.
As you see, I am the last poster in that thread, I found it today.
I will update, if it is possible.
Just feels stupid, because my system is working perfectly, and I don't need any new functionality from 0.27. I know that it will be a big work to get all working seamlessly, my zoneminder installation, minimyth frontends and so.

For now, I will try to get tmdb3.py working.
