Everything that can help other users is appreciated.
To illustrate the point... Until a recent post, I assumed XBMC was Microsoft software for the XBox. I now know it's open source with versions for Windows, Mac, Linux and XBox. While XBMC is very impressive, I'm still going to prefer
J River Media Center. But JRMC also requires the XML for importing information. So whatever ideas you have are likely of interest to me.
On a more general note, there are a number of excellent media centers out there. And it's obvious they are becoming more "mainstream." XBMC is one of few that download movie information, and I don't think any of them will ever come close to doing that as well as PVD. But if PVD is going to be relevant in a world where everyone is using media center software, it has to establish itself as an effective "back end" for movie information. For now, helping media center users import information by whatever means their software allows is the best we can do. Eventually, maybe media center developers will take note, and add the ability to query PVD's SQL database directly.
