[QUOTE="lwerndly, post: 256458, member: 64817"] Sorry for the late reply, the usual lame excuse (too busy at work). yhoogi - regarding the problem with the plugin constantly trying to look up files it can't find. Yes this annoys me to no end as well. My current plan is to do the following: 1) the plugin will only query AniDB for two weeks after the file was added to the database. After that it will stop the query 2) add an option to manually query a file for AniDB information. This doesn't solve the whole problem, but will be a stop gap for now. kazuma6666 - good work on the RSS stuff. I think it would be a good option to add to the plugin in the following way (for people like me who leave thier HTPC running) 1) Download anime using the RSS stuff you have done 2) On completion move to a temp folder 3) Have the anime plugin watching this folder for new files 4) Anime plugin hashes the file and looks up info on AniDB 5) Anime plugin, looks up local database for a matching series 6) if matching series found move the file to the appropriate folder illusion - as pafro1 said, I have been looking at this but it is low on the list of my priorities.
