I didn't have to develop any movie DB (yet) so I didn't look for it. But I'm pretty sure there are some. IE: where do XBMC and the likes look into?
I had to Google for XBMC but i think this tells you -Wikipedia. There may be some royalty or other legal issues. Ask Cyberlink Support.
"XBMC has the built-in optional function to automatically download metadata information, cover art and other related media artwork online through its web scrapers that looks for media in the user's audio / video folders and their sub-directories. These "scrapers" are this way used as importers to obtain detailed information from various Internet resources about movies and television shows. It can get synopses, reviews, movie posters, titles, genre classification, and other similar data. XBMC GUI then provide a rich display for audio and video files that the scrapers have identified.
Scrapers use sites like themoviedb.org[33] or IMDb.com to obtain thumbnails and information on movies, thetvdb.com for TV show posters and episode plots, CDDB for audio CD track listings, and Allmusic (AMG) and MusicBrainz for album thumbnails, reviews, and metadata.[29]"
Perhaps in a future build !
