I watch a lot of TV shows and sometimes i had a following problem. When new season of my favorite TV show starts, i want to remember how last season ended in some fast way. Or sometimes i want to find that one funny episode and watch it again.
Therefore i decided to create service where i could see all episodes in 50 frames of thumbnails / recaps. So i did a research and find some useful tools to automate this process.
I setup SickBeard, which downloads newest episodes using uTorrent. Afterwards SickBeard post-processor notifies Django manage.py script, which calls ffmpeg and creates thumbnails and matches with subtitles. After processing is done script it deletes video file. Hosting on Hetzner, images on Amazon S3 (+Cloudfront). Hope you find this useful, the same as me! :)
There is a trial version available where you can download and test it out and see if it fits you.
I set minimal price for Basic license and on my opinion this is fair price for what you get. In basic license you get unlimited dashboards, unlimited widgets with all the benefits FinalBoard offers you - you won't see such price on any on hosted solutions even close.
Yes that maybe true about too bright colors, this is on todo list - i will be adding overlay effects, depending on the background so that screen look more natural in the current environment.
Entora is built using Python/Django, PostgreSQL database and ElasticSearch for search and cache layer.
For static files: Amazon storage and Cloudflare as an image proxy. Linode hosting (8x instances).
The biggest challenge is merging data from different open source databases and validating that musician John Smith is same person as actor or writer named John Smith from totally different data source.

Actually mptt tree package integration example is already added: http://djangosuit.com/admin/integrations/category/ It doesn't do some automatic sorting magic, but this is in our future plans.
