Title: (mirobridge - Maintains Miro's Video files with MythTV); This python script is intended to synchronise Miro's video files with MythTV's "Watch Recordings" and MythVideo. The source of all video files are from those downloaded my Miro. The source of all meta data for the video files is from the Miro data base. The source of all cover art and screen shots are from those downloaded and maintained by Miro. Miro v2.0.3 or later must already be installed and configured and capable of downloading videos. For full instructions on using Miro Bridge with MythTV see the wiki page at: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/MiroBridge Usage: mirobridge.py usage: mirobridge -huevstdociVHSCWM [parameters] Options: -h, --help show this help message and exit -e, --examples Display examples for executing the jamu script -v, --version Display version and author information -s, --simulation Simulation (dry run), no files are copied, symlinks created or MythTV data bases altered. If option (-n) is NOT specified Miro auto downloads WILL take place. See option (-n) help for details. -t, --testenv Test that the local environment can run all mirobridge functionality -n, --no_autodownload Do not perform Miro Channel updates, video expiry and auto-downloadings. Default is to perform all perform all Channel maintenance features. -o, --nosubdirs Organise MythVideo's Miro directory WITHOUT Miro channel subdirectories. The default is to have Channel subdirectories. -c CHANNEL_ID:CHANNEL_NUM, --channel=CHANNEL_ID:CHANNEL_NUM Specifies the channel id that is used for Miros unplayed recordings. Enter as "xxxx:yyy". Default is 9999:999. Be warned that once you change the default channel_id "9999" you must always use this option! -V, --verbose Display verbose messages when processing -H HOSTNAME, --hostname=HOSTNAME MythTV Backend hostname mirobridge is to up date -S SLEEP_DELAY_SECONDS, --sleeptime=SLEEP_DELAY_SECONDS The amount of seconds to wait for an auto download to start. The default is 60 seconds, but this may need to be adjusted for slower Internet connections. -C ICONFILE_PATH, --addchannel=ICONFILE_PATH Add a Miro Channel record to MythTV. This gets rid of the "#9999 #9999" on the Watch Recordings screen and replaces it with the usual the channel number and channel name. The default if not overridden by the (-c) option is channel number 999. If a filename and path is supplied it will be set as the channels icon. Make sure your override channel number is NOT one of your current MythTV channel numbers. This option is typically only used once as there can only be one Miro channel record at a time. -N, --new_watch_copy For ALL Miro Channels: Use the "Watch Recording" screen to watch new Miro downloads then once watched copy the videos, icons, screen shot and metadata to MythVideo. Once coping is complete delete the video from Miro. This option overrides any "mirobridge.conf" settings. -W, --watch_only For ALL Miro Channels: Only use "Watch Recording" never move any Miro videos to MythVideo. This option overrides any "mirobridge.conf" settings. -M, --mythvideo_only For ALL Miro Channel videos: Copy newly downloaded Miro videos to MythVideo and removed from Miro. These Miro videos never appear in the MythTV "Watch Recording" screen. This option overrides any "mirobridge.conf" settings.
