[QUOTE="Oxan, post: 854534, member: 97484"] We don't have the concept of "data grabbers" at all: we don't keep our own database. We get all our data from external databases, such as the TV Server database, MovingPictures, MP-TVSeries, etc. The media part (movies, tv series and music) is indeed implemented with MEF, which allows to create a plugin (called provider) that loads data from another database. However, the TV part (including scheduling) is limited to the MP TV Server and doesn't support this. That makes sense once you think about it: there are quite some different ways to manage your movies (Moving Pictures, MyVideos, MyFilms, etc), but everyone uses the same TV server (except for people using 4TR, but that one already has its own webinterface). But before things get any more concrete, someone really has to explain a bit more what the "series link" is. I can't make much sense of the link in the first post, which seems to be more about a plugin interface for the TsReader (and doesn't explain what series link is at all, except that it's implemented). It's no standard MP feature as far as I know. [/QUOTE]
