Any plans to make it easy to import a bunch of videos this way? I guess I am talking about another manual record option that lets you input show info like title, actors, descriptions, etc. I know you can do this today with above and then editing mysql, but it would be nice to have a VCR input you could just start and stop via myth and enter all the show info. -Nathan
