Extend functionality to include support for movies

As per title.

Not sure if this would help but I noticed that one of my recorded tv shows which was a movie showed up in the movies section of MCE. So I opened up the movie in the "EditDvrmsMetadata" program to see all the meta data and noticed that there is a "WM/MediaIsMovie" value. Mabye this could be used to search either the "thetvdb" website or the movie db website.

Any chance of this being worked in to a new release, manually renaming movie recordings is getting tiring. Maybe start a early access option for minimum donations like MCE buddy has so that there's a little benefit for adding new features.

It is definitely on the wishlist. Unfortunately, the metadata you mention is not always present so it does make it harder to determine whether or not a recording is a movie.

Furthermore, the free movie database isn't as complete is IMDb (which doesn't have a publicly-accessible method for programs to retrieve the data) which would mean that the script is likely to fail to match against quite a few movies.

My concern is that the script does really well at the moment for TV programmes and I don't want that quality to go down too much if/when I add support for movies.

It is on the list of things to do, though ... it just needs some careful thought as to how best to implement it.
