Those scripts are not a part of MythVideo.  They're a part of core myth.

Again, *all* you need to have Metadata properly working with mythvideo
is a) the myth python bindings installed, and b) all of myth
installed.  If your package management has not caught up to where
things live in trunk, this may not be the best time for you to run
development code.
