Mythfilldatabase only processes XMLTV generators it knows, all commands are 
hardcoded into the source. perhaps this will change someday, but as a 
workaround it knows (CVS version only) the option --file, where the input 
is read from file. Try --help for more info, the --file option needs 
several parameters.

What was probably meant is that you should try to get your hardware & 
software working under the last stable release (which can be quite a 
beast), so if you run into trouble compiling CVS you know if your setup is 
the problem or the CVS version itself.
