Windows only: My Movies is a free plug-in for Windows Media Center designed to manage and play all of your movies within Windows Media Center, pulling in rich metadata for your movie collection, including cast, trailers, DVD art, and more.
Whether you rip your DVDs to your hard drive or you still prefer using the discs each time you watch a movie, My Movies 3 is a must-have. We mentioned the previous version, My Movies 2, in our roundup of eight killer Windows Media Center plug-ins, but My Movies has grown steadily since then, and with the release of My Movies 3 it also supports Windows 7. Once installed, the tool automatically indexes and downloads metadata for your movies whenever you insert a DVD.
Keep in mind that while My Movies 3 is designed specifically for Windows Media Center, other applications available from the My Movies people, like Collection Management, can work to supply great metadata to other applications, including XBMC.
My Movies 3 is a free download, Windows only. It is donation-supported, however, and you can unlock more features with your donations. Without spending a dollar, though, My Movies 3 is still a must for your Windows Media Center box.
