Comment(by r.d.vaughan at rogers.com):

 Thanks for the merged change sets.

 This may not be acceptable, but I would like the IMDB number added to the
 meta data (-D) output if it exists on themoviedb.com. The reason is that
 some scripts like fetch_poster.py still use IMDB numbers.

 The script Jamu (http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Jamu), allows the user to
 specify secondary sources for data and graphics to augment the gaps in
 themoviedb.com wiki. Almost all of the secondary scripts still use IMDB
 numbers.

 I full back the move to use a source's own reference number but I want to
 keep all options open. As I understand it both of the primary data and
 graphics TV and movie wiki's intend to keep IMDB numbers part of their
 data sets and api search options.
