IMDB search after foldernames instead of filenames.
I'm engaged in writing MovieInfo scripts but MP is just delivering the filename to the script so I can't search after foldernames. If you don't want to add a little hook (f.e. "using foldernames instead of filenames") in the configuration tool and a setting for this function in mediaportal.xml, maybe this is a possible easy solution:
If you start the IMDB search by selecting a video file (right click / IMDB) you use the filename, when you start it by selecting a foldername, you use the foldername. Mp already notice if a folder or a video file is selected (the menu after right click is different), so it should be "easy" to change. And it works for both people, those who like to use filenames for organisation and those who use foldernames without changing anything in configuration tool, translations files and so on. Tataaa
