Does any one know an easy way to add a Synopsis to Media Center or if I can interface DVDP with Media center?

I sued this for a while:

but haven't really bothered lately (I used the .3 beta version, which worked quite well even with a mix between DVDs and online media). I have no idea how well the .4 version works.

You can also use the media Center plugin called Media Browser. It will fetch metadata from the net and gives a better interface for movies than plain MCE. It also gives you the option to use an external player application like Media Player Classic - Home Cinema which gives better result than the builtin player.

I have raised similar queries previously in relation to MCE. Here are 2 links for threads I have subscribed too.
Some of it went above my head, some didn't work, and one thread went off-topic, so I reverted back to what I did in the first place. That was exporting the data in an xml file and then import into Movie Collectorz and accessed the data via their MCE plug-in. Would prefer to dump Collectorz altogether and just use DVDProfiler, but time, expertise and patience are limited and haven't been able to get back to it again.

Take note of the posts from mediadogg. They were the most helpful. Good luck. PM me if you wish.

Here is another approach posted in yet another thread on the topic.

Basically it creates a button on the MCE screen that will run your DVDP Online web page within the MCE web browser. Somebody in that thread made a snap judgement that it was launching DVDP on the local PC, but that is/was not correct, and unfortunately he hasn't come back to edit or remove that misleading post.
Thanks for your support.
