+--- Thread: Movie Sets Collection Grouping for Video Database Library Custom Sort Order Filters? (/showthread.php?tid=14476)
- spiff - 2009-11-27
that means we only have that info. try this
Code:
<movie>
<sorttitle>The Fast and the Furious 2</sorttitle>
<set>The Fast and the Furious</set>
</movie>

i was under the impression that <set></set> went inside of <sets></sets>, not inside <movie></movie>
can anyone confirm the right format?
here is one of mine:
Code:
<movie>
<title>Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines</title>
<runtime>1 hr 38 min</runtime>
</movie>
<sets>
<set>Terminator</set>
</sets>
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0181852/- spiff - 2009-11-27
well combing our efforts we end up with
Code:
<movie>
<sets>
<set>foo</set>
</sets>
</movie>which is the proper format. all tags within <movie>

Just a nifty little idea for those of you outthere developing on this...
What if, you made it like with TV-shows. So you add a source "X:/Movies" and inseide this source are your folders with moviefiles in them. If you should happen to have a "Harry Potter" folder, with all the Harry Potter movies in it, also seperated in respective folders, then it would automatically be categorized in XBMC as a <set>. Just like TV-shows and episodes are listed.

good to know, thanks!
but am i correct in saying that this still doesn't really do anything in the normal movies view?
- sho - 2009-11-27
No, have you tried it? (only missing fanart and it's the best thing since.. whatever you love)
- openricky - 2009-11-27
well, maybe it's because my format was wrong
i'll see if i can re-import these and report back

i tried the way via media companion and than the way explained in the wiki with
<sorttitle>Die Hard 1</sorttitle>
<set>Die Hard Collection</set>
here is an example of one of my nfos:
[...]
<title>The Animatrix </title>
<sorttitle>7 - The Animatrix</sorttitle>
<set>The Matrix</set>
<rating>7.5</rating>
<year>2003</year>
<top250 />
<votes>18,071</votes>
<outline>The Animatrix is a collection of several animated short films, detailing the backstory of the "Matrix" universe, and the original war between man and machines which led to the creation of the Matrix. </outline>
[..]

im using xbmc on the xbox and the xbmc version is: (oh great, it says unknown, but was compiled on 31.12.2009)
can someone help me please
- spiff - 2010-01-05
probably not backported to xbox.
- prae5 - 2010-01-05
Not sure if it is included in the xbox branch - may want to wait for one of the devs to answer.
HOwever it looks fine, assuming that all the nfo's say the same thing. Debug log of scanning may help.
- blastactionhero - 2010-01-05
mhkay then.. hopefully someone will backport that :/
