I have always used the DVD profiler to manage my DVD collection and to provide the data base for the PC that controls my Home Theater to control the DVD changers.
I am just beginning to develop a program for the Philips Pronto PRO that will allow for the selection of DVD;'s from the Profiler xml file and the automatic playing of them via the changers. The code is already done to bring across the titles, searching them, and showing various subsets of the data that the profiler maintains (Actors, credits, media type, overview, cover, etc.) if you are interested in a copy when it is done, go to my web site (www.the-gordons.net) and look at the material there. Check out the slim server writeup as the same rules will apply re use and distribution. It should be all done in about a month. |
