Steve, This is great! just one small problem.
Upon execution, it grabs the show info just fine from TV.com, but the query fails with a message of DBD::mysql::st execute failed: Unknown column 'basename' in 'field list' at /root/tvgrabber-0.5.pl line 571, <STDIN> line 1. apparently basename is a column in your mythconverg.recorded table, but not mine (latest knoppmyth) Did you add the basename column to your db, or am I just using a different version than you? Thanks!
