Key items
TV Show stacking - Tested and works with the latest svn build of XBMC.
More icon choices for TV Shows, like Movies it now pulls mediaicons.org data.
-Notes: 3d box shots are the most common for icon types, some shows have hundreds of them, i've added 90 something to the gui (96 i think), and allow up to 100 to be downloaded in the settings, the default is 8 icons, you will want to increase this for tv shows to something higher, the downfall is that it does take time to load all those icons.
-Look at the bottom of the application window to see what icon its saving it as, it's in the big old font where movies show the folder data
-There some more work to do yet in that area, but it's getting better
-Ignore the long vertical line in wide icon view, it's going to be used to scale those boxes for the number of icons selected, but currently is fixed and visable, it's not your eyeballs playing tricks on you.... read more

Beta 2 - Build 2295 has been posted, this is a full install and will remove your config.xml file
If you already have a version of beta 2 installed, and don't want it to extract the cached xml's, create a blank text file in c:\program files\movieinfoplus called noextrez.txt - "c:\program files\movieinfoplus\noextrez.txt"
What's new/changed/not working
Not yet working - TV Show icon selection is not yet working
New/Changed
- IMDB Scanning has been updated and improved, it should find all the shows now
- Change to loaded .nfo information
- It will look for <moviename>.nfo as a full valid .nfo file, then any .nfo file in the folder
-- It looks first in the file for <id>tt000000</id>, then for just for any tt000000 in the file
- TV Show changes, TV Shows now work like movies, you select the root folder and not the individual show file
-- Example - for the following you would only add d:\media\TVShows
--- d:\media\TVShows\House
--- d:\media\TVShows\Heroes
- Multiple fixes to initial scan and locating movies in imdb has been completed, this should work much better
- Labels for size and resolution has been added to the TMDB posters
- Includes Image resize for GUI display of folder.jpg and .tbn file
- Includes features from the test builds
- Fixed a bug with 0k fanart crashing the gui, if it fails to load a valid image, it will automatically remove that 0k file
Fixed multiple issues with TVShows and the new configuration wizard. See release notes for specific details and instructions.
A test build of beta 2 has been uploaded.
Please rename your old movieinfoplus folder prior to install and test out the movie functionality and report back any issues.
