MDB actors or existing from xmltv file

Lets just say that have xmltv file with almost all data...

I want use IMDb actors because my xmltv file have only 2 or 3...

but as you now you dont got always 100% matching from MDB postprocessor...

Is it possible to configure MDB.config that first use MDB actors and in case with no matching existing actors from xmltv file?

      <actor>Lou Ferrigno Jr.</actor>
      <actor>Virgil Griffith</actor>

    We got matching from IMDb (7 actors) so we have situation that in last actor tag
    MDB postprocessor add also (Celeste Anderson, Curtis Armstrong) from existing xmltv file...
   

2.) case

      <actor>Odile Vuillemin, Jean-Michel Martial, Raphael Ferret</actor>

 No matching from IMDb so we got actors from existing xmltv file so this is OK.
 How can tell MDB postprocessor that use actors from existing xmltv file ONLY when NO matching from IMDb?

First I change my xmltv file to got 1actor in tag and max 2 actors... then use your combination

<actor>'mdb-actor'</actor>
<actor>'actor'</actor>
