I've used Ember before, and I quite like the way it deals with my movies... however with TV it makes a lot of files and doesn't place them into a master folder within each series folder so it's put me off a bit. I can see that TV functionality is currently further behind that Movies, and was essentially wondering: do you get much more out of Ember from a TV standpoint currently than scraping with XBMC and TVDB and keeping backups of your library? What extra information can you garner that I can't do currently? I tried briefly but my install of XBMC fought a little bit with it (mainly out of my lack of current knowledge) so just checking to see if it's worth the time and effort as it stands. Cheers.
there is still quite a bit of work to do on tv part of ember, but it is quite promising. There are some problem with recursivity in tv folders (it will only traverse 3 lvls deep, so if you got episode folders under season\series\ it won't pick those up), and you can't update XBMC with it yet (at least not the tv shows), but otherwise it works nicely.
