Re: [xine-devel] recognition of CD/DVD's w/ cover art in Xine

[Jerome <je...@ki...>]

Hi,

This is a very familiar problem for me, we had the same problem for my 
company. There is no open source metadata database, though if enough 
people are interested then it would probably make sense to start such a 
project and make it available for everybody.

Musicbrainz had this dream/goal to have a database for all the media but 
there is no such things as a DVD database for now, well not open source 
or free.

The different copyrights issue can be resolved in a clean way and not 
just by hacking Microsoft way of doing but would require a big 
community, I think wikipedia is a great example on how a community can 
work on releasing open source information.

If enough people are interested then maybe something could be started 
and I would definitively join the effort.
