What about poster & fantart resizing and compression? That is a useful feature, imo.

Fanart resizing is already working.

I have not written poster resizing for two reasons,
1) Posters are available with many aspect ratios, to have a resize option like fanart would cause a bad ar.
2) People can choose to get their posters from a source with reasonable quality lower resolution images such as MPDB

When you change the cert field and click quick save, it doesn't save that change. But if you go into editor, it does save it. Not sure if that is on purpose or not.

Also, when I sort by date added, it does seem to sort somehow but I am not sure how it is doing it. I am guessing it is sorting by month then day then year. I think it should be sorting by year then month then day.

And I am hoping you will re-add the get trailer from IMDB at some point. I like to download them and keep them. And that was a really easy way to do most.

I'll look into the cert issue, sounds like an oversite on my part.

I added support for IMDB trailers in version 3.019

Yes, this is a very handy feature I didn't see it either but I was bouncy between the older version and the gen2 so I wasn't sure if they had already been tagged as old imports.

Shame imdb had to mess things up but this new version looks very nice.

I saw the button to play a trailer if I had one (and I see it says download trailer when I first start the program up) but the button doesn't show up to download one from IMDB. The example I have is Just Cause (1995). On IMDB it has a trailer (two actually) but the button doesn't show up to allow a download.

And :

3) Xbmc does already resize the poster when scraping into userdata.
Default 512x512 and for xbox 192x192. (Doesn't need to be square.)
You can change the size in Advancedsettings.xml

For fanart isn't a default size and no setting. There is a ticket for it
http://trac.xbmc.org/ticket/4856

If it does get added to XBMC you don't have to rezise the fanart anymore.
(Resizing is needed for xbox!!!!)

Does the .nfo file contain a trailer url. This is obtained when the movie is scraped, and the link it downloads from.

I've noticed that changing movie does not add the trailer link, i've just fixed this issue.

I'll be uploading a new version later today that will include this fix.

It does not show a link for a trailer. I went into the settings and checked the box that said Include IMDB Movie Trailer url within the nfo file and then rescraped it and it gave me the option to download it now. Sorry about that. I didn't know that had to be checked. I thought of it as I didn't want a link, I wanted to download it.

One other thing I noticed is that the first time you scrape a movie with media search, it doesn't give any fileinfo. If I right click the movie and rescrape then that info is filled in in the nfo. Not sure if that is on purpose or not.
