Alan, as the My Movies author, I should properly comment on this.
Over the time, I have had different requests for making My Movies work on other “platforms” than Media Center. The amount of time I have available on the project makes it more important for me to fully dedicate the time to the Media Center interface.
But, My Movies is becoming more than just a front-end interface, with it’s own WebService for meta-data, it’s Collection Management program, online collection website and it’s database, My Movies may be a good base of a Movie Collection program for other “platforms” than Media Center.
Take this as an invite for all other projects, not just Media Center or SaveTV, but also Beyond Media, Media Portal or anything else – if anyone sees a potential in building a front-end on top of My Movies’ back-end, meaning it’s Collection Management program, WebService and database structure, I am very open to creating an API for this.
My Movies lives by it’s user base, and it’s quality depends a lot on the quality of the meta-data on the WebService, and if other projects use of My Movies back-end can help gaining users and improving the meta-data on the WebService, this is much welcomed.
It means though, that some developer needs to commit on wanting to build this or these font-ends – I won’t spend time on creating and maintaining an API that is not to be used.
