Re: @tony72
XBMC forces the wrong labels?
No it doesn't. It is true that for optimal results you should name the files in your library within certain guidelines.
I find that "Name Of Movie (2009).avi" works in almost all cases. If your library is not named properly then yes, it is likely to incorrectly match titles.
In such cases you have two choices. 1) Name the file properly 2) Right-click the item and select "change title".
Nothing is "forced" though.
For the record I use an Acer Revo with Ubuntu 12.04 and XBMC.
I spent the $40 I saved on beer.
