[QUOTE="cheetah05, post: 171608, member: 19628"] Aright I have had a look at all the suggestions so far and there is problems with all of them. [b][url]http://imdb.com/[/url][/b] When searching the database using the My Videos standard MP functionality - it sometimes provides bad matches, but generally the Data on there is correct, up to date and full. Another problem with this site is that the cover art is awful. [b][url]http://www.gaz1.com/movdb/[/url][/b] The problem with this site is that it doesn't always have full information, with details missing or short information. They also only have a small section of titles (as mentioned above - 275k). There is sometimes no cover art, but when there is its usually of good quality. [b][url]http://www.impawards.com/[/url][/b] This site is just for cover art only. It has a large selection of high resolution coverart which is ideal. The only problem is that it doesn't have its own search feature, which means i am going to have to do a dirty-hack through googles search to find the posters. [b]What I think the best solution is:[/b] Basically, my opinion is that, when the IMDB finds a match for the film you want, and the match is correct, it usually has the best data, so I believe that it is probably best to get the data from this site, just a different method to the conventional way. For the coverart I think using "http://www.impawards.com/" is best as it has a large variety, which usually has a match for the film you want and it at a good resolution. [/QUOTE]
