Pardon Me Gentlemen if I am posting in the wrong thread.. But I am a Very Big Fan of XBMC and it's tools including Ember Media Manager. EMM is great although it is still a work in progress..but outside of XBMC I have always wanted easy to use software for TV & Movie Information and recently found these:

Free TVDB & Free MovieDB which perform number of the tasks performed by other media managers very easily and also quite fast. Did not note the name of the author but this guy definitely programs nice stuff

Check it out: My Portable Software -> http://www.myportablesoftware.com/ 4/5 Stars - Good Stuff!

(PS - Maybe Ned S. can list these in Supplemental Tools?) - Kind Regards To All... Portmerchant

Hey Ned,

I see lots of Android + iPhone remotes and apps, and not really much in the way of Windows Phone 7 (probably because of the low numbers of WP7 out in the wild). I am an avid fan of XBMC (proof: I still run 2 modded XBOXs) and put together a WP7 metro app (XBMC Maestro) for all things music from XBMC. Was wondering if you could create a page (I don't seem to have access to create pages) and I could put it up there?

Thanks,
Darrin

Hi Ned,

Nice effort! I put up a page for my XBMC remote for iPad, currently just a kind of bookmark page with a couple of links pointing to the forum and its website, but I'll take some time in the future to move the information from the forum onto the wiki, and link to the wiki from the forum post; I like the idea of the wiki to be a central overview of supplemental tools, because in the forums it's sometimes hard to find what you are looking for.

Thanks!

Were you ever able to get your account going? The only thing you might need to do is activate the confirm e-mail link.

You can make easy links to the XBMC wiki using double brackets around words: [[debug log]] = debug log, [[Add-on:YouTube]] = Add-on:YouTube, [[Adding videos to the library]] = Adding videos to the library, [[userdata]] = userdata, etc

Looks great! Feel free to expand it with whatever you feel like adding.

Thanks Ned!

Yes, once I clicked the email and waited a bit I was able to edit and add a page. Have a look...is this in the format you were thinking?

http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=XBMC_Maestro

Seems with the categories set right, it appears in the right places in the indexes.
