Movies
TV Shows
Music
However lets say that you want to have 2 sections of tv shows so that your system looks like this:
Movies
TV Shows
Anime (This is actually just another TV Shows database that is separate from the first one)
Music
The Anime section would just be another TV Shows database that is kept independent from the normal tv shows one. It is able to use the same scrappers and other system as if it was the TV Shows section. The only difference is that the user is forcing isolation of the data between these databases.
The advantages are that you could have multiple databases with content that is independent. So when I search action in my TV Shows section I do not also get Action Anime too and when I search Action in my Anime section I do not also get Action TV shows.
This should be VERY EASY to implement as all it would take is allowing the current database structure to be copied multiple times to allow for separate categorization.

However i recently realized that most of those animes are on thetvdb.com. How can i rescrape using that database instead? It looks like more of the info is filled in there. Thanks!
ZERO <ibis>' Wrote:It may have been best to post it in the thread for that scrapper. However let me also answer it.
First this is a very BAD idea. The way that the tvdb categorizes anime is not correct which causes a lot of problems for databasing. In addition the ani db scrapper also forces use of proper series names while thetvdb.org does not always use the correct title. I have over 350+ anime series on my database that were all scrapped by the anidb scrapper. It already pulls data from thetvdb.org when it can find it to fill in episode data and fan art. Lastly the dates in thetvdb.org can not be trusted as you do not know if your getting the US r original release date where as when using the anidb scrapper you will get the correct data.
ZERO <ibis>' Wrote:No I just do not database ANY of my regular tv shows. There is maybe a hand full of regular tv shows that I do watch. I am not going to toss that into the sea of anime, there is just no point. This is also why I really hope this is implemented in the next release, it will make things a million times easier.

-Movies
-TV Shows
-Documentaries
-Sports
-Music Videos
etc...
Would be great if the user was given the chance to create a new database "add new database" where a scraper(s) can be defined for each database.
I also love the HD Movies option in some XBMC Skins... this should be a default menu item under ALL skins!
The idea with have some sort of filtered menu item is great (HD Movies) as this could be a custom menu item defined by the user to filter any library.. eg:
-HD Movies
-FLAC Music
-MP3 >320kbps
-Drum and Bass
-Photos 2011
-Movies 2011
Please Please Please make this available to the user to configure! This would put the cherry on the cake!
