XBMCSTUFF downloader Pl-download clearart and tvthumb/sesonsthumbs for multiplex view
#1
Hi all,

I've been working on a plugin to download image available on http://www.xbmcstuff.com, by Imaginos.

So, that's my first plugin, and first public version !

i've tested it on vista / xp / xbmc live and no real bug seen.
tested with smb file share for tv and local file too.
don't know with ftp share.

it's a plugin, it use THETVDB id from xbmc database, so it won't works if you use imdb id for tvshow.
it will show you your list of tvshow, clicking on one will show what kind of image is avaible for this tvhow.
you'll get empty directory when tvshow doesn't exist on xbmcstuff

clicking on an image will ask if you want to download it, it will be named to be recognize by xbmc, it clear image cache so xbmc will load it alone when you go back in you library.
cache may not be refresh of xbmc does not run in english, i'll correct it soon

I've gotten errors on it when clicking on any of my shows. When I get control of the tv from the wife I'll investigate some more to see if it's me or not.

i used Media Companion to scrape the .nfo files which were used to import all the info into the database. the .nfo files have the tvdbid, so i'm assuming the database should have them as well.

here's a copy of my database, hope it helps.

I didn't have time to get a debug last night, but I did check my .nfo files (also generated by Media Companion) they had the IMDB and the TVDB both in them.

PPIC: I'll try to get you a sample of both and .nfo and my DB tonight if you need more info.
