Summary:
When using xbmc and then switching to mediaportal, biggest pain in the ass can be scanning your video library. While XBMC cleans out folder/file names almost perfectly, mediaportal seems to be years behind.
Area:
Video Database Scan
Description:
When I scan video folder with XBMC, it recognizes most movies correctly and it even automatically recognize multi-part movies.
But, when i scan folder in mediaportal, there are way more false findings and ones are very ridiculous, like when it recognized "Cop Out" movie as "Fifa world cup". And biggest problem is that multi-part movies are not detected, so many movies are listed twice.
Biggest problem in XBMC is that there is no way for correcting bad name detection except entering all movie details manually, while mediaportal have really good system and correcting movies is super simple, but there is still loads of manual work with big movie library.
It would be great if scanner would be improved or even XBMC one ported to mediaportal, while keeping great editor and way to simply re-download movie information for another name.
