[mythtv-users] Looking to convert my scripts to perl bindings

[Michael]

Hello list,

I have two scripts that manipulate the mythtv database directly.  I 
would like to modify these to use the perl bindings or to use scripts 
that do this "correctly".

These scripts do two things:

1) I have several videos in my collection that do not have coverart.  
These include family videos, vacations, etc that are in mythvideo.  The 
script currently uses mplayer to create a screen capture, copy it into 
the VideoArtworkDir, and update the DB to find the art work.  I would 
like to update it to create a screen capture, upload it to the right 
storage group for coverart, and update the DB using the bindings

2) My videos are in storage directories and have different parental 
control levels.  The script has key pairs of directories and levels.  
Then it updates the DB with the right parental control levels for each 
movie.  I would like update this to support storage directories and 
update the DB using the bindings.

I am hoping others may already have these scripts done or could maybe 
point me to some good documentation for the perl bindings with some 
examples.
