Hello.
I really like the idea of this addon. Especially the search by fighter function.
I have until now used MetaBrowser to get thumbnails, fanart and nfos for my MMA.
It has fetchers for IMDB, TMDB and such. And savers for XBMC. It gathers info and pictures for my movies and MMA and sorts it up nicely.
I have all my MMA setup as movies in XBMC, about 200 events.

I have thumbnails and fanart for almost every event but tmdb has as you have stated, some holes.

I added sherdogEventID.nfo for all of them and tried the addon, it could not find that many thumbnails or fanarts.
Would it be possible to change so that MMA Browser can use the pictures I already have and perhaps add the ones I dont?

My setup
The folder "Strikeforce Rockhold vs. Jardine (2012)" contains:
sherdogEventID.nfo
strikeforce.rockhold.vs.jardine.mkv
strikeforce.rockhold.vs.jardine.nfo
strikeforce.rockhold.vs.jardine.tbn
strikeforce.rockhold.vs.jardine-fanart.jpg

This is all organized with MetaBrowser, I also asked fatal (the MetaBrowser dev) to make a plugin that finds the sherdog-id and adds it to a sherdogEventID.nfo and it has been added to his todo-list.
He also had some questions about how he would be able to gather pics and info, and if that would be able to work well together with MMA Browser that would be great.

Another idea I got, and this all has to do with blending with my setup, why not add the sherdog-id to movie.nfo like:

Code:

<mmabrowser>19184</mmabrowser>

or

Code:

<sherdogid>19184</sherdogid>

That way you dont need another nfo. Im not looking to replacing your addon but rather have it work better together with the rest of XBMC and in my case, the program I use for the rest of my XBMC library.
