Thank you

| OK Thank you! But I found today that there is an internal NFO Export tool with XBMC template, and doing a similar job, Great! Focusing on that tool will be probably better than a external plugin wright? |

Internal nfo export for XBMC is perfect for me but template for TV shows is missing, if you or someone created one let me know, if not I'd like to...

The internal export for XBMC is great but the template doesn't copy the cover picture to the folder like it does to the fanart plus it doesn't list the actors. It's a little bit too basic at the moment, XBMC is capable of showing more than this NFO is permitting.
What I do think is very good it that the export only applies to the movies showing in the grid which means I can filter out all the movies in my collection that have no direct file link to XBMC, then write the NFO's for those movies only.
It's always getting better. Any better templates out there then please let me know as well |

Hi Alessio,
I was a user of Radioactive's XBMC Plugin and now switched to EMM8 - meaning the Expüorter doesn't work anymore;-(
As you already have started to implement a XBMC- NFO Export, I'd like to help getting this working. Here are my findings:
Some of Radioactive's fields are missing. Do you have a list of all Database-fields (including short description or Editor-field mapping), which could be exported?
The cover-files have been exported to the movie-folder as "moviename"+".tbn" (this could be configured)
movie length is listed just as 97, not "97 min"
Actor-pictures are not exported (in RAdioactives export, a actors subdirectory was created and the pictures have been stored as actor.tbn in this subfolder.
<id>tt_IMDB_IDONLY_</id> doesn't work
<watched>NOTSEEN</watched> doesn't work
Fanart ist stored in the NFO-file with the path of the EMM-Database, not the movie-path
<fanart>
<thumb>F:\EMM\Programm\EMM v8\configuration\\white.gif</thumb>
</fanart>
It would be great, if you could work on this XBMC export quite soon, as I believe there are many in the community who would appreciate it.
Have you been in touch with Radioactive to help out here?
Thanks a lot in advance

+1 about XBMC support
some documentation for editing .nfo templates would be a nice start.
My target would be a .nfo file with some metadata from XMM and at the end an URL with themoviedb url, which will be used by XBMC scraper to download fanart, cover and other missing info from themoviedb (metadata in the .nfo file will not be overwritten by XBMC scrapers).
An option to name fanart and cover as the movie file would be nice as well (for those like me who have all files in the same folder).
Thanks for any help Alessio :) |

http://www.themoviedb.org/movie/_MOVIE_SITEID_
This is the tamplate I'm actually using for XBMC.
This way XBMC will use explicitly defined tags and download the remaining data (i.e. trailer link, fanart, posters and others) from themoviedb.
The final row:
http://www.themoviedb.org/movie/_MOVIE_SITEID_
Generates themoviedb links, by using the field "internet ID". So if you are using a chain of scripts you have to be sure to put themoviedb script as the last one, otherwise internet_ID will be taken from the other sites.
It would be good if there was some way to chose your preferred source for Internet_IDs... is there? |

Also, XBMC uses the tag "playcount" to determine weather the movie has been seen or not.
So it would be usefull some placeholder (e.g. _MOVIE_SEEN_BINARY_) which returns the boolean value (as 1 or 0) of _MOVIE_SEEN_
then you'd just put:
<playcount>_MOVIE_SEEN_BINARY_</playcount>
in the template
and remove:
<watched>_MOVIE_SEEN_</watched>
Hope I'm not bringing too many troubles! |
