Source code for metadata providers

[pünktchen 1345]

Hi @@Luke will you publish the source code for the other metadata providers (tmdb, tvdb, omdb) like you did with the fanart.tv plugin? I really like to get my hands on these and make them more customizable.

What would you like to add? By the way, can you upload the people backup source? I just want to know what the plugin is doing so that i can alert you of any possible problems it might cause. Thanks.

Options. For example to choose one language for artwork and an other for metadata. Or what cast and crew is downloaded, only main cast, only cast with images, only named cast (no uncredited), guest stars yes or no and so on.

Those really should go into the emby core and then fed into the providers as options. In fact, the language already is, it's just that the image language comes from the same place as the metadata language. So that change could actually happen in the emby core without requiring any updates to the metadata plugins.

Great! for the image language option.

For other things i would still prefer it in the metadata providers, would prefer to get the source code, because then one can customize the code indepent of your opinion what is usefull for users, it's independent of the core release cycle and it will not last additional three years before any changes arrive [emoji6]
