We should not rely on NodeId for MovPics filters, reason for this is that a user may copy an old movingpictures database or a database from another machine over the top of the existing one, we save the nodeid in the users mediaportal.xml so the database and xml are not in sync in this case.

If the nodeid does not exist, then we do nothing, no harm in that...but if the node does exist then we run the risk of overwriting a custom node.

I think we should just check for the $(Trakt) name, if a user decides to edit this then it simple reacts as if a user modified an existing dynamic filter ie...it becomes a static node.
