Idea for a client - need advice

[foolycooly]

Hi,

I currently use a system called Meedio for cataloging all my media, and as the front end for my HTPC.

There is currently a plug in for TVTome which drags the Series / episode info from their database into the meedio system - all well and good for common TV shows, but their anime selection is very limited.

I am thinking of writing a plugin for the system to use the AniDB information for anime collections.

my questions is this - does the UDP client have the ability for me to drag the AniDB information I am looking for across (series name, episodes, last aired, synopsis, actors, etc)?

thanks, and sorry if this is a noob question....

Most of the info is available by the UDP API, you should read the documentation (is there such thing? ).

The UDP API offers only very limited access to AniDB's data; it mostly exists to catch notifications and add local files to one's list.

You could try extracting that information from a mylist-export - but that's of course no complete solution.
