With help from @DaveBlake, I have overhauled the Music nfo wiki page. I would be interested in any feedback on ommissions and corrections

The specific Music nfo page is here... http://kodi.wiki/view/NFO_files/Music

The parent nfo page is still a draft, but is complete upto Section 5... http://kodi.wiki/view/User:Karellen/scratchpad01

No pressure if you are too busy Smile

For artist.nfo the <fanart> should be
Quote:<fanart>
<thumb preview="path"></thumb>
</fanart>

For both <thumb> and <fanart> exporting to nfo will export online links to art (if any). Importing will also accept paths to local art files (in which case these paths will also be subsequently exported).

<path> and <art> are exported, but AFAIK, aren't used when importing.

For Kodi 18/Leia there is <sortname>

Not sure but I think artist overwrite requires scanned or scraped artist mbid?

For album.nfo, I think <releasetype> is either Album or Single
For Kodi 18/Leia there is <scrapedmbid> (takes true or false) Not sure what happens with that on import.
For Kodi 18/Leia there is <musicbrainzreleasegroupid>

I see in your albumnfo example you have to move your
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?> <album>
(formatting issue). Also you have a text encoding issue with Dvořák.

Hello @scott967.

I have corrected all except the v18 items, as the page is for use upto v17. I understand from @DaveBlake there may be more new tags to come.

Thanks for the feedback Smile
