moVee 8 desktop application - what do you think?

Hi all,

Ive developed a little desktop application and i would like some feedback from experienced media center users.

Currently the application only allows you to browse movie metadata but im working on the management of movies in relation of meta data and how this can be utilised with additional applications such as media center

Its a Windows 8 styled application which intergrates with TMDB to fetch its material.

Heres the URL
https://sourceforge.net/projects/movee8/?source=navbar

Im not a industry sodtware developer alothough i have a degree in software engineering
Love working with movies and i hope you enjoy

thanks for looking :)

Description

moVee 8 is a light weight desktop application which fetches detailed information for your movies from TMDB (The Movie Database)

Most of us have many ripped and downloaded dvds in many different formats, scrolling a folder of movies is boring and doesn't provide any information other than the movie title.

moVee 8 provides a graphical user interface styled towards windows 8. We aim to provide an enjoyable experience for choosing a movie or simply to provide detailed information that you may not already know.

Surfing a movie collection with moVee 8 enhances your experience.

Have a go . . Oh and let us know what you think :)
