Media Reader 0.71
I guess a bunch of releases never made it into this thread. Tons of things have changed but 070-071 introduces trailers from traileraddict instead of IMDB. The trailers are better and I hope I won't constantly have to change the code to pick them up. If you are still at 0.60 you really want to upgrade. It has (some) network support, read the doc.
Media Reader 0.60
Not sure why this post still had version 0.49 listed ;-). MediaReader is at 0.60.
- Mediareader at times was not picking the obvious movie from IMDB but some other obscure information.
- Code comes with a refreshed Mozilla/Swing interface (refreshed from it's svn).
- Added a new function to relocate movies from single movie file into individual directories (drop me a note if you don't quite understand how it works, I'll document it when I find the time).
- Added support for new nfo file format (fileinfo section). Mediareader supports any number of audio streams and any number of subtitle streams. The XBMC Wiki is not clear on what the format tag should look like (AVC or A/VC, AC-3 or AC3 or ac3?). So if there are better specs, let me know and I will change it.
At present the information for the nfo file is *always* read from the physical moviefile and audio/subtitle info cannot be edited. As I am in the middle of writing Mediaserver (unless someone has this title indeed trademarked) I only want to put the absolutely necessary effort into the old code. Mediaserver supports any number of streams including multiple video streams.

There is an early, early version of a user guide to get you started here.
