[QUOTE="Dadeo, post: 730154, member: 27204"] My Films is a very different plugin - it is designed to combine the strength and power of a movie catalog/manager with MediaPortal's media centre features. Version 5.0 integrates many of the advanced search and update features of movie catalogs into MediaPortal. Several pay catalogs now provide an interface with Media center apps like Windows Media Center and XBMC, but in my experience none of those come even close to the ease and functionality of My Films. Verson 5.0 will support eight different catalogs, which can export an xml file, although only the free Ant Movie Catalog (AMC) allows updates from within My Films because it supports an xml database. Eax is great and version 3.0 even supports a native xml database which would enable My Films and Eax to use the same database - so it could support updates like AMC does. I really hope Zylar resurfaces and continues development! Until then Ant Movie Catalog still remains the best bet, because it does support a xml database so you can manage and update your movie catalog from within My Films. We are all still on the lookout for a better alternative that supports more fields! The ~30 fields AMC supports are no where near enough for me! :P [/QUOTE]
