The command line parser only allows one data point to be specified per
option. Since the parsing is now all done generically according to
rules, there is no clean way for it to know that option takes multiple
and different types of input. The previous --file option now just tells
mythfilldatabase to operate in a specific mode, and --sourceid and
--xmlfile tell it what data to use. You need to do:
mythfilldatabase --refresh-all --file --sourceid 1 --xmlfile /tmp/be.xml

The --file option is for importing of XMLTV files. Schedules Direct
uses a separate --dd-file option, with different additional requirements.
