Why I create SMM

I start from find a usable movie manager for myself. I did a lot research, but most of them just not suitable for me. Med's Movie Manager is the most close one, and it is open sourced.

I start by adding function to Med's Movie Manager, but suddenly it graps me and I get a madness to decide create a totally different one.

Sorry if anything is wrong

I am a newbie with open source, so maybe did something wrong, for example, I include other open source project in my code, only because it is more convenient to debug.

Please let me know if anything is wrong.

How it look like

Why SMM is speical

It support python plugin.
It focus the downloaded/ripped movie management

Why not Plex

Plex的理念似乎和SMM很像。而且它的界面也非常漂亮。更重要的是它还集成了播放器。

乍一看，觉得完全没有必要重写一个SMM。

但仔细想了一想，觉得SMM有其他的优势：

* 功能上并不完全和Plex重合，比如我想要的随机选取功能，Plex做不到。
* Python的插件系统，要比Plex的插件系统容易加新功能
* 它不带播放器，依赖系统的播放器。固然不够强大，但也可以说很灵活。
* Java和Python，我最熟悉的语言，添加功能更容易。
* 开源。

对于SMM，我还有另外一层的感情。就和自己的孩子一样，可以不时地加点新功能什么的。
