Comment (by steven):

 the script works great.

 Few suggestions for improvement :

 - add an option to prevent it from deleting database records automaticly.
 Now if you symlink in a usb drive in your video folder and unmount it all
 the files get deleted from your database.
 It might even be better to have an oldvideometadata table in myth to see
 if a file has been added before and reuse that data if the file is added
 again (also usefull for automounting DVD's and CD's with videofiles). But
 that maybe outside the scope of this ticket. :-)

 - add a call to the imdb perl script add that data and cover when only one
 result is retreived (or even check if there is an imdb nr. between [] in
 the filename)
