This library replicates XBMC functionality to scrape media details.
The scraper functionality is implemented using XBMC scrapers. The sscraper directory has to be specified first. The scraper directory expects to have sub-directories containing XBMC scrapers, with each directory representing one scraper. The directory name is treated as the scraper ID.

To Find a Movie:
String filename = "Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol [2011] 720p BRRip [Dual Audio] [English + Hindi] x264 BUZZccd [WBRG].mkv";
Scraper scraper = new Scraper("metadata.themoviedb.org");
ArrayList<ScraperUrl> movieResults = scraper.findMovie(filename, true);This method returns an array of ScraperUrl objects. It does so by doing the following:
- Extracts movie title and year (if available) from the given filename. (may be moved some where else, as XBMC is not consistant on this for different media types)
- Uses scraper to find search results.
- Calculates relevance score based on search terms (title and year)
- Sorts based relevance score.
To Find a Music Video:
String filename = "Michael Jackson - Beat It.avi";
Scraper scraper = new Scraper("metadata.musicvideos.theaudiodb.com");
ArrayList<ScraperUrl> musicVideoResults = scraper.findMovie(filename, true);Works same way as the movie method, and even uses the same functions (the function may be given a generic name in future).
