I would love a feature to scan nfo in file mode so the tags can be read in file mode as well as the library. A feature like the music tag reader would be very helpfull.
Cheers

Are you referring to this => http://xbmc.org/forum/showthread.php?t=12721 or .NFO files?
FYI; .NFO files are already supported, see the XBMC Online Manual for more information.
i believe .nfo support for video files view where xbmc would read in all the nfo files when entering a folder, thereby populating the video info, similar to how xbmc reads in all the tag information for music in files view. this was discussed recently in another thread.

here's the other thread

Yes or just a feature if it grabs the video info on a file if it looks for an nfo (in video file mode).... the nfo is loaded when a movie is run in file mode, but only when a movie is run. If it could be loaded on an info call as well that would be great. That way the genreral listitem.rating etc labels would work.

this is a good idea. for me i just need to create nfo files for my movies. then xbmc always would scan the movies with correct information. making the need for scrappers less needed :)
