[Yuzem]

There is a new version.

Figuritas don't work-ita on my computer-ita.

This looks very nice; also like the idea of doing this in prism.

I dont quite understand what it is for? is it a collection manager?

I, too, wonder this.

It says is coded on Bash and HTML, interesting...

Could you give me more information on what isn't working?
Or try this at the terminal:

figuritas movies -a http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0133093/
figuritas -S &
firefox 127.0.0.1:9009

Yes it can be used as a collection manager but it is intended to be a multimedia manager (not very multi right now) since you can associate your media.

For example if you have movies on your computer you can add and associate them with:

figuritas movies -a /path2movies/*.avi

There is no gui option to do that right now.

Most excellent; I know the project is very new, but is there anyway that the metadata that it gathers can be written into the file? perhaps using nepomuk?

You can also use imdb-thumbnailer to automatically add and/or bind your movies with figuritas.

This is something that I wanted to do but I never found a good way to write meta data to avi files in bash. I took a look to nepomuk but it doesn't seem to be accessible from the command line.

I have added a poll to vote for the most wanted module.

I played a bit with the new version, and it seems I cannot see the movies I add. I can add them either from the command line or from the web interface, but I don't find where they should show up (I'm sure it was immediate in the previous versions; so immediate that now I'm not sure where I should look).
