ZappitiDb
Zappiti Media Center V4 features a new smart and powerful movie and TV shows scan engine. Day after
day, the Zappiti Database grows thanks to the Zappiti community and scans become more and more
efficient and reliable. For instance, Metropolis.mkv can be associated to the 2001 Japanese animated
movie version instead of the 1927 version from Fritz Lang. But if one single Zappiti user associates the
rightversion,alltheotheruserswillbenefitfromit!
The same system is used for technical specifications. So if the aspect ratio is manually modified by one
user,alltheZappitiuserswillbenefitfromit.
POWEROFF
