Yes, directors etc. are stores as well, but that wasn't my point. Rather
that the name "role" is confusing, because I'd expect the character name
there (e.g. "Captain Jean Luc Picard"). That info is currently not at
all stored, and it's unfortunately not even in XMLTV files, but I think
that info is essential and should be added (to XMLTV and Myth), if the
credits are to be useful for a given movie.
