Copy the files into the Video folder (That MythVideo is looking at),
and go into "Setup -> Video Manager" on the Frontend, which will
automatically discover all the new files you've just added. Then
scroll to each one, press the "Menu" key (M, usually) and choose
"Search IMDB" to get all the metadata for the video.
