Hi Mato,

That's a nice initiative you had, thanks for the effort!

Could you push the code in a bazaar branch too?

I tested the plugin but it showed always the same artwork/metadata for
all my videos.

One little suggestion too, when pressing that new glass button, you
could display the search results of imdb in a list so that the user can
directly see what was found on imdb.

I started working on a very similar task: a revamp of the Video library
section. The spec is there:
 http://elisa.fluendo.com/wiki/Specs/VideoSection

Currently I can make some cleaning in the video filenames and somehow
make the difference between TV shows and other videos. I use a
resource_provider to lookup for movies on themoviedb.org website.

It would be very cool to somehow merge our work ;) We could use the imdb
resource_provider and probably some of the UI stuff you did! I'll push
my WIP branches on LaunchPad.
