hi together,
if its wrong to post something like this in here, sorry.
i think it would be great if xbmc would get the imdb-link out of a *.nfo in the directory of the movie file(s).
in online manual it says that this should work, but it doesnt seems so.
would like to know if it works, or if this idea is generally a good one
thx & regards

see if adding .nfo to <videoextensions> in xboxmediacenter.xml then launching/running the .nfo from my videos does anything
if it doesnt, then this is a feature that is no longer in cvs, and can thus be removed from online manual, feel free to make the change if it doesnt work.

the code is there to do it, but isn't currently active, as .nfo files are ignored in the directory listings (at the code level). not sure exactly how this was designed to work, but i guess the idea is that in showimdb(), we should look for <filename>.nfo and use that if it exists.
cheers,
jonathan

hi,
has anybody got it to work after jmarshall fixed it?
i don't get the .nfo listing and if i try to add the movie info via the lookup "info" on the remote, it also does not query the .nfo file.
