Great, thanks Roland.

I rebased the commits onto fixes/31 and have my frontend running with 
them now. Series seem to be working fine. I still see some problems with 
movies (e.g., Interstellar and Joker). A list of matches is shown, withe 
the first being the correct one, but selecting it does nothing. I can go 
back to edit, and I find that not even the tmdb id has been filled in. 
It may be specific to just a few particular films.
