wow, fantastic, MC has always been my fav scrapper. Downloading now, I hope it has support for "extrathumb art" now... great to see this is alive I am so happy!! were is your donation link?
<--- Edit
I am not really getting any problems, just scrapped my newest films easy no trouble. I still do not see a function for "extrafanart". I would like to sugest this to the devs. Basiclly many new skins allow random backdrops on each film. Is there anyway MC can support this, basicly instead of downloading 1 backdrop, you just highlight tick all the ones you want and it downloads them all. Placing them in a folder names extrafanart. Also many of the new skins use random backgrounds on the main screen, so a option to mirror all fanart downloads to a single directory would also be great..
So at the moment I am using EMBER Scrapper thing, it is ok and sorta works but is not even close to as good as MC imo. Though it dose have the above features witch make it a must have for anyone using advanced skins..
1) - Ability to download multipul fanarts for a single film. Prefrably user selected (so say I could select 5 of the 10)
2) - The extra fan art placed in a directoy called ExtraFanArt
3) - Option in the FILM and a seperate option for the TV SHOWS to mirror all downloaded fanart to a single directory. For example I have all my TVshows mirroring to TVShowBck and films to FILMbck. So the skin can look in these directoes to get random menu wall paper when you highlight film or tv in the skin. I know of at least 2 skins other then the one I use that do this.
The only problem with the extra fan art thing is it that it needs each film and tv show to be in a seperate folder, but that is a small price to pay for having awesome random fan art... Anyway.. somthing to consider
Do you have a twitter or somthign i can follow to keep uptodate on... updates

Oh one more thing i forgot, in ember they have a trailer option were you can just enter a string, instead of downloading it so yuo go to the internet and stream it. I like to stream form youtube, and have to edit all the ember outputs to this...
plugin://plugin.video.youtube/?action=play_video&videoid=[youtube video code - eg:SP-lHUtNeHg] This way you use the xbmc plugin (and associated quality settings) to play the trailer as a stream directly off youtube.
Please consider adding a way to manually enter text into teh trailer field instead of a big download button, also would be great if it was already default filled with "plugin://plugin.video.youtube/?action=play_video&videoid=" or a button to fill it or somthing....
