<div>Two ways. One, search the list for ragetvgrab and you'll find a script that will import recordings in a particular naming convention using information from the Rage TV website as title/description. Otherwise, set up and configure the MythVideo frontend plugin and put your files in it's specified folder and they will be imported using the Video Manager (usually used for movies, etc). You can also just put them in the recording folder for MythTV and run the
<a href="http://myth.rebuilddatabase.pl">myth.rebuilddatabase.pl</a> script from the contrib folder of the source to import with it prompting you for information.</div>
