This wraps most of the old functions.  MythDB.getAllSettings got left 
out (I can't think of a good reason to use it), as have 
MythVideo.get/setField (I figure those were never called directly).  
MythVideo.rmMetadata was slightly altered to remove the isinstance use.  
Also left out were the MythVideo.get<field>ID calls, as those values are 
never accessed, merely 'joined' in the SQL call.  For the same reason 
the MythVideo.set<field> calls do not return IDs.

Additionally, MythData.py line 789 needs to have '(id,)' as the second 
argument in place of 'id' for these to work.
