I've been looking at ways to pull more information into the MythMusic displays, and see that Wikipedia has an impressive number of classical composers. It's probably even better with popular artists. Seems like a good source for more background while browsing or playing music.
<br><br>So far, I've added the years of the composer's life and death (where applicable) and a Wikipedia URL to the database. Preliminary patch and database update at <<a href="http://wendy.seltzer.org/mythtv/artistinfo.tgz">
http://wendy.seltzer.org/mythtv/artistinfo.tgz</a>>. <br><br>As well as using that information as another display or sort option, I was thinking of pulling up the composer's Wikipedia entry as a visualizer, if I can prod MythBrowser into cooperating. Has anyone tried anything similar? Any other thoughts or interest?
