...on the one hand, the automated metadata management of mythvideo is not
nearly as good as XBMC. On the other hand, "the simple interface" for managing
a video library pretty much is a file manager. This is the case even if
coverflow happens to be there to distract you from the fact.
"can I search by actor" is an interesting question but not one that probably
has much effect on WAF in practice.
