[QUOTE="morpheus_xx, post: 859306, member: 48495"] First of all it is very important to understand the MP2 architecture is MUCH more flexible and modular than MP1. When we talk about "Series" here, in terms of MP2 this is only one MetadataAspect. This metadata can be filled by so called MetadataExtractors (MDE). The list of MDEs can be easily extended by plugins. Having this flexibility allows plugins also to access the MediaLibrary (ML, database), add or change metadata of media items (here series episodes). If now a GUI plugin like MPTvSeries likes to bring all the nice features in, this is also possible by plugins. What I like to say, the work I currently do is to build some solid ground for future extensions (with plugins). Maybe some users can already live with the inbuild basic features, others will need more. When MP1 developers plan to port their plugins, I can offer help in understanding MP2. And if there are more plugin interfaces required, we can discuss and implement this also. [/QUOTE]
