This add-on adds an entry Jinni to the context menu for movies in your video library.
When selected, the add-on reads the included file jinni-links to get a list of all movies similar to the highlighted one. Matching is based on IMDB IDs.
Then it writes a Jinni.m3u playlist containing those movies which are found in your video library, and opens the playlist so you can choose a movie to play. The list is sorted from most-similar to least-similar, and is limited to 100 entries.
All of this happens locally and offline.
The file jinni-attrs is provided for further improvements, but is not currently used. It contains the attributes assigned to each movie.
For example, the movies The Shawshank Redemption and Birdman of Alcatraz have a similarity of 55% because they share the following attributes:
