OK, I got the number from tmdb, put it into the entry for the video.

I've tried every single button and I can't get the frontend to fill in 
the info.

What do I need to do to trigger a script with the movie database and get 
it into myth?

If I run tmdb3.py -D 8202 I get an xml blob with the info I want. How do 
I feed that into myth?
