I use EMM to get the movie-details and then i use xbmc to view it
But the nfo-export-funktion has some bugs
1. path for fanart-thumb & actor-thumb fanart: <fanart> <thumb>Here the path to the fanart</thumb> </fanart>
actor-thumb: <!--BEGIN_ACTORS--> //This is the Begin of Loop for Every Actor <actor> <name>_MOVIE_ACTORS_NAME_</name> <role>_MOVIE_ACTORS_ROLE_</role> <thumb>here the path of the movie-actor-picture</thumb> </actor> <!--END_ACTORS--> //This is the End of Loop for Every Actor
2. Genres
Now the nfo export the genres in one line
<genre>Horror/ Thriller</genre>
but it have to look like
<genre>Horror</genre> <genre>Thriller</genre>
the same by credits, country, director
3. Boxset
If movies are in a boxset the name of the boxset should export to <set>Her the name of the Boxset</set>
I think that are the most importants bug Please ale fix them
<!--BEGIN_ACTORS--> //This is the Begin of Loop for Every Actor <actor> <name>_MOVIE_ACTORS_NAME_</name> <role>_MOVIE_ACTORS_ROLE_</role> <thumb>_MOVIE_ACTORS_PHOTO_</thumb> </actor> <!--END_ACTORS--> //This is the End of Loop for Every Actor
What is your plan regarding the (XBMC) NFO exporter? Do you want to enhance it or do you want to let racioactive drive his tool forward and then integrate this into EMM as plugin?
If you intend to enhance your internal NFO export to be compliant to XBMC, then I have some more ideas / requests:
1) I just want to refer to Radioactives first post here:
2. Genres
Now the nfo export the genres in one line
<genre>Horror/ Thriller</genre>
but it have to look like
<genre>Horror</genre>
<genre>Thriller</genre>
the same by credits, country, director
Is there a way to define this within the NFO templates? If so, could you give me an examples (e.g. for <credits>?
2) enable copying the posterfiles to the moviefolder (as moviename.tbn)
3) enable copying the actor pictures into a subfolder ".actors" of the moviefolder (as actor_name.tbn) (like in Radioactive's tool)
4) When the moviefile type is not *.avi, the nfo doesn't get exportet (tried it with *.mpg, *.mpeg, *.mp4). Is there any way to config this or or enhance it to evy kind of moviefile?
5) and a last idea which would be really, really cool:
add a new tag called _MOVIE_NFO_
fill out the tag when scanning folders / disks or adding new movies with yes or no if moviename.nfo exists
alternatively add a script to check all folders for nfo-files and update the tag
If I could then show this tag in the grid view and sort & filter it, I would be always up-to-date about the existance of my NFO files
Thanks Ale & Radioactive for your great contribution to the XBMC style NFO handling, as this seems to be the best standard across different mediacenters (I personally will use Plex on my WHS-2011 + Plex Clients on iPad Samsung BlueRay and AppleTV + project Valerie on my Dreambox and two other SAT receivers with Enigma OS and they all can import XBMC style NFO files ;-)
I have updated my whole database with new covers and metadata. Now I'm ready to export and want to come back to my former post:

The bug with the different moviefile types has been fixed by you, but all the other point above aren't implemented. Do you plan to implement these also?
can you add when export to nfo files the condition, if wachedstatus = seen and playccount = 0 than playccount = 1 because xbmc don't read extream movie manager watched status inside nfo files.
