i know of the feature freeze, but, if i don't mention it now, i'll forget.
basically, it's nice how xbmc can check imdb and cddb for album/movie information. but, i was thinking, it would be nice if i could look up anime information from animenfo.com via xbmc, also get the picture if one is present. i don't know if this is possible, but the site has extensions, and there's a few applications (gpl too) that can browse the site, maybe search. i mean, yeah it's just an idea, it could be a pain in the ass to know to look at animenfo instead of imdb (how is xbmc supposed to know this particular folder/file/whatever is anime and not a movie? i'm sure there are ways, maybe an "anime" view much like movies, or somehow telling xbmc where the anime is located via the config file or something.
edit: forgot something. (refer to top )
