Just a brief update.
As most of you will know, I decided some time ago that the current incarnation of Media Companion was becoming unworkable and as a result of this I decided that a rewrite was in order.
The progress has been slow, I probably made a big mistake in using the original code, on hindsite it would likely have been quicker starting from scratch. At the moment the new program only supports movies and I expect to be uploading this for testing hopefully this weekend.
The new build should be much easier to maintain, and adding features will also be much simpler.
How quickly TV Show support is added will very much depend upon the issues that are raised when I upload the new build, I hope that there are not too many and that I will be able to then concentrate on the TV Show features.
As you can see from the screenshot below, the interface has been given a bit of an overhaul, filters have also been added to the main page, additional options that are not on that screenshot are sort by Rating and a top250 filter.
