mythicalLibrarian works from the mythtv side to provide a proper naming convention for XBMC to recognize. It takes a name like 1024_201101011200.mpg (chan_YearMonthDayTime.ext), references the mythtv database, changes the name to Title/Season X/Title SxxExx (Subtitle).ext. It then notifies XBMC that there were changes and to rescan the library. You must have your source set in XBMC in order for the process to work. So you share the files with SAMBA (SMB://) or any other supported method and set the source in XBMC as TV Shows or Movies and mythicalLibrarian manages the XBMC library automatically. Every once in a while you log into the MythTV machine and type mythicalLibrarian --doover to rescan unrecognized shows.
