[Longtime Collector]

I want to add a tag <SimilarFlix> to thousands of my movies. For example for the Movie Saw I have as follows:

Saw (2004).nfo

Code:

<Movie>
<SimilarFlix>Cell, The (2000)</SimilarFlix>
<SimilarFlix>Hannibal (2001)</SimilarFlix>
<SimilarFlix>Saw II (2005)</SimilarFlix>
<SimilarFlix>Seven (1995)</SimilarFlix>  
</Movie>
http://www.themoviedb.org/movie/####

How can I easily get the (thousands) of themoviedb identifiers I need to fill in the #### portion above? They don't seem to be shown within the separate NFOs I've downloaded.

How about the ability to convert a tag into a list?

Use the tmdb API?

nickr, the tmdb API is probably the way to go. Ouch. Something else to learn.
LiveJeans, I don't see how your suggestion helps. Can you elaborate?

Isn't it weird that the XML for Kodi contains the IMDB identifier but not the TMDB identifier, since it's scraping TMDB. I think I put this as a feature request.

The IMDb Id is pretty universal.
