Hmmm,
Don't think that my c++ skills are up to writing an offline content patch, I think the dinosaurs were still walking around last time I used that language
I wondered if this plan would work?
I can look at adding checks and measures later to stop it recreating files that have already been added, but I figure if I can get that part working it would save me a lot of effort.
Or was that the part you were referring to as not working in your post?
P.S. sorry was referring to scrapers etc earlier, think that that was the wrong term here

- I write a python script which takes my offline MyMovies export and uses it to create a folder structure representing the movies I have
- it then copies in the images from MyMovies and forks out the XML in the "per movie" format
- it also creates my fake movie file or some such
- I can then add the movie source as normal and your MyMovies code should work it's magic.
