[mythtv-theming] Video Grabber doesn't show year when grabbing metadata from TVDB

[Brian Chabun]

Great stuff!  Thanks for the help.  The mythbuntu theme is what I was using
previously.  I had a  quick look at the two themes and there are
significant differences in the two files within that node.  Not immediately
apparent to a beginner like myself, but it must be there.  I'll pick at it
as I have time.  Thanks again.
