well, in my opinion the "interface" is not really bad. for me (and most others?) it should be enough and to navigate through cover art (album sort, big icons etc.) looks quite cool enough, or not? to be a little bit more serious than funny-colored-stunning-all-animated-clickable is the better way - at least for me.
what i mean is - let's imagine the "playing now" window - that the cd cover (the picture from folder.jpg p.e.) is dynamic and swaps with pictures from allmusic. below is a scrollable smoothy textbox with the content coming from allmusic, p.e. the band history.
i had a look at allmusic before lunch. it seems that they dont have an api to get information, so it would be hard to parse the whole html code and to update the parser each time they change the code...

Just realized that this is just a "brainstorming" thread without any concept or concrete wishes or background knowledge. It's nice to see every sort of input here - maybe someone puts this together in a specification usable for programming.
Regarding gracenote: you need to license their API. In addition you aren't allowed to use ANY other API (e.g. AMG, freedb, etc) if you are a customer of them.

Looks like there's some kind of error regarding translations that I can't pinpoint about Subcentral. You'll find it in the log file I attached to my previous message. I don't understand it because I use MP in english, I search for subtitles in english and not in my native language, so I can't figure out what's translation got to do...

that really sounds like an authorization issue. do you already have an OpenSubtitlesConfiguration.xml in the programfiles\tean mediaportal\subtitledownloaders folder? there you can fill in your credentials. I'm sure it is documented somewhere...

TV Server plugins are listed on this page, and "EPG Cleaner" can be downloaded from this page.
Note: I don't know what bitness the plugin has. It might be 32-bit, or it might be "any cpu". The plugin is not listed by the "MP Extensions" tool, so I don't know whether it has been tested with the most-recent MP releases.
