* The main page for movies is all edit boxes but most of them like imdb field you can't actually enter anything in
* It would be nice if it had a list of common terms it ignores when searching like 720p 1080p xvid divx x264 and so on. I had quite a few fail to find anything because of that stuff in the filenames but xbmc is fine.
* If you have Movie Fanart enabled it really does rape the fanart site by downloading every fanart for the movie. And when I did a fresh install with 100+ movies thats a lot
* If it gets the wrong title and downloads the wrong fanart it wont delete the incorrect fanart on title change and just adds to the end so you end up with moviename-fanart.jpg being for the wrong movie when xbmc gets it first off
* Can we have an option to not download all the cast thumbnails (it takes time) ? and where are they stored ? and is it possible to upload them to XBMC for it to use ?
1 - You can edit any part of the movie nfo by using the edit feature. The reason TextBoxes are used is to allow copy to clipboard.
2 - I'll see if I can find the regex that XBMC uses
3 - It doesnt rape rape the fanart site in that it takes just as much bandwidth to view the backdrops as download them. I could create an option to download the first one only though for people who aren't so picky.
4 - I've added this to my list of things to do.
5 - I could add the ability to disable actor thumbs. They are stored as url's within the nfo files and downloaded realtime when the movie.nfo is viewed. This is the only way I could do it that would allow XBMC to use them.
