my current attack vector is:
get what we have working with the new stuff. db will get completely redesigned, work on this has been started.
i have done a couple of scrapers so i can test diff content.
now my plan is to add the actual video library window (i already got the underlieing filesystem classes working with the old db scheme) with the current views in it, then expand from there. that is, you can list videodb://1 (to get all them titles), just like you can list musicdb://1 to get all them artist (here the 1 is just an example - url based db access is the point).
however, i've been busy busy at work the later months and i do not expect that to change. when you code 10h a day at work, coding is not what you tend to prefer spending your spare time on. there will be progress, but mostly during weekends..

Completely understandable spiff, when I turned wrenches in my younger day the last thing I wanted to hear about was one of my own vehicles or a family members needing work.
Make no mistake however any effort you guys put out is greatly appreciated! I actually got into a spat at work with a gent that uses ava and when I told him I used XBMC he seemed shocked and said he thought it would have died a long time ago (ironic how the misinformed seem to have a strong opinion on subjects they have no idea about) turned out he tried it a short time after it went over from XBMP. Now I have converted him by doing nothing more than displaying the work you all have put into it so far.

Any updates? I'm home for the holidays starting this Fri (I travel for work - yuck) and would love to start beta testing since I'll finally have the time!

Would be great to have Spiff make a page or something detailing what he is doing... aka. Things he hopes to do, things he tried but is unable to do, things he has working, etc....

waste of time... I'm sure he'd rather spend the time coding. All I'm asking is if there will be a beta version coming soon to test.

Gamester... was this just an FYI because it looks nice but I'm not sure how this relates to XBMC?
Are you asking that the My TV section in XBMC use this as an example of what to do?
