Ok i did an extensive search and apparently nobody has their Video directories set up like mine...

Code:

\Movie Folder
       \Movie 1.avi
       \Movie 1,nfo
       \Movie 2.avi
                \Actors (contains actor thumbnails)
                \Fanart (contains fanart)

I can't seem to figure out how to use relative paths in XBMC, and i'm trying to keep my files organized in a certain way.

I've tried

Code:

<thumb>.\Actors\actor 1.jpg</thumb>

and

Code:

<thumb>Actors\Actor 1.jpg</thumb>

and neither option seems to work...

I searched the forums, and no one clearly says if relative path support exists on XBMC or how to acess relative paths. Can a developer or someone definatively state for the record for me if relative paths are supported and if so how to use relative paths for thumbnails in NFO files.

no they are not supported.

even if they were you'd still have to use sane slashes

any particular reason? i don't like to clutter up my folders, and i like to keep my Actor thumbs in one place since they often apply to multiple movies, harcoding a path makes it painful to organize my files, if i need to move things around then i have to go in and change all the paths to the nfo...do you plan to implement relative paths or should i just give up and clutter up my folders with repetitive files?

nah, there's nothing standing in the way. go rite ahead and submit a diff
