What is JMM

JMM is the name for collection of tools that currently includes JMM Server, JMM Desktop and MyAnime3 (currently Windows only)

These tools let you watch and manage your anime collection with a great deal of flexibility

JMM Server - Shared server component
JMM Desktop - Windows application
MyAnime3 - a plugin for MediaPortal (Home Theatre PC's)

JMM utilises information from AniDB, TheTvDB, etc and other sources to try and deliver the best anime experience possible

JMM differs from other AniDB based clients in that it uses a client-server based architecture. This means you have one central server running which keeps track of your collection, while clients like JMMDesktop and MyAnime3 connect to the server

Central to the use of JMM is it's reliance on AniDB (http://anidb.net/). AniDB is used by most subbing groups who upload file information, which then allows us to look it up for our personal use
This means that JMM does not rely on having your files named in a specific format. However you name your files, JMM can identify 99% of them automatically. For the other 1% we have tools to easily mange them as well

My Anime 3

My Anime 3 is a plugin for MediaPortal (http://www.team-mediaportal.com/)
MediaPortal is designed for use on a Home Theatre PC, and My Anime 3 allows you to list all your anime, no matter whether they are movies, TV shows, or ovas. It allows you to see detailed information about each anime you have, including description, categories, air dates, community ratings, personal ratings, etc. Fanart, DVD Covers, posters, and banners are automatically downloaded giving you a pleasing look to your anime collection. Not only are the anime listed, but each episode is listed as well. Information for each episode is available, preview pictures are downloaded, airing dates are shown, episode descriptions are retrieved, etc.

My Anime 3 has a variety of Information, and comes in lots of different skins. See here for more information. http://code.google.com/p/jmm/wiki/MyAnime3

JMM Desktop

JMM Desktop is a dedicated windows application using .NET 3.5/WPF
It has a lot more power and flexibility than MyAnime3, and is is covers most of the functions you might use to manage your collection of anime

Of course you can also play all your anime, and since it also connects to JMM Server like MyAnime3, any files you mark as watched from JMM Desktop will appear as watched there. So you can watch one episode from your desktop, and then watch the next one from your home theatre PC

JMM Server

JMM Server is the heart of JMM
It is responsible for hashing files, looking up information on AniDB, downloading all the images, managing the shared database and so on
The idea behind having a central server component is so that we can run multiple clients (MyAnime3 and JMM Desktop) across multiple computers, and always keep information centralised
