[QUOTE="todd3835, post: 812365, member: 116393"] The Good: This plugin flat out is why I'm running Media Portal. With no longer having access to live TV, I wanted something I could have my TV Shows separate from my Movies. So when I say this plugin is what brought me to Media Portal, it was the #1 reason. For people without live TV but with an extensive library of older TV shows, this plugin really completes your HTPC experience. The Bad: Sometimes shows don't match. For instance a file named "Law and Order SVU" should find a match with the proper show. It doesn't even come up with the wrong show, it just fails. I could see it coming up wrong, but a fail? If anything I'd think it would at least match the wrong show (Law and Order). Just a minor annoyance. The Ugly: To me, there's really no show-stopper issues with this plugin. There's minor annoyances occasionally, but nothing that makes me think the plugin is bad. So in summary, I *LOVE* this plugin, and I would be lost without it! Despite the minor issues with matching (and it happens with movie matching too I'll add. For instance "Cars 2" comes up was "Cars" the original.), it's a awesome plugin. Oh, and for the person talking about using the GUI, the shows auto-import without it. If you drop the video files in the right directory remotely, it picks it up right away. If it can't match it (Like L+O SVU) it will pop up a message asking I think if you want to ignore or search manually (which worked wonderfully when I searched for "SVU"). This plugin can be used 100% *WITHOUT* the GUI once properly setup! I think that's probably one of it's best features! [/QUOTE]
