ok bit more teaseing here

New Plugin will be available soon , I pitched an idea to El camino who has turned it into reality.

welcome to the start of IMDB Plugin

in Brief ,, May start a new thread depends on intrest, this is only the start of the pi .
if you have your videos tag correctly ie name of the film or the folder that contains the film, if you highlight a film in your list, you can get info from imdb about that film.
once the data has been found it will save the info to your video folder for those times when internet is not available, it also downloads the art to your folder too.
the last 2 top buttons are not done yet ,, its a test skin for us to use we are thinking of having those features if we can make it happen.

Video Browser

Imdb Info screen at present

the skin has gone out to a frew people good results so far thanks to them
Enjoy

I suspect this is where Sonic got a cease and desist which helped kill the movie times plugin.
