This all makes me think Heimdall might be a major solution to the age old "separate scrapers for movies and tv" problem. It seems like it shouldn't be all that impossible to put together a series of inference rules that would quickly and easily solve for the problem, so long as the person developing the rules was aware of the major outliers. For example, "If the video is shorter than 60 minutes, it is either a tv show or a short film." "If the video uses a TV show numbering scheme, it is a TV show." "If the video is longer than 60 minutes, it is either a tv show or a regular film." "If the video uses a TV show numbering scheme (e.g. Sherlock), it is a TV show."

Man, it'd be pretty sweet to make Heimdall the default scraper engine across all of XBMC, and then just tell people to point XBMC at ALL of their media (movies, tv, music videos, music, games, etc.) and let XBMC/Heimdall do the rest without any input from the user.

I may not have been very enthusiastic about Heimdall before, topfs2, but if I'm understanding this right, that is incredibly, incredibly awesome.
