Exporting nfo Thumbs and Fanart info - xyber - 2009-07-10

What is the correct format to export Thumbs(Posters) and Fanart in the .nfo file?

I am exporting fanart like so ...

Code:
<fanart>

    <thumb>http://themoviedb.org/image/backdrops/3503/tt0389860.jpg</thumb>

    <thumb>http://themoviedb.org/image/backdrops/5270/tt0389860-1.jpg</thumb>

</fanart>

but thumbs look a bit weird, from xbmc it looks like this ..

Code:
<thumb>&lt;thumbs&gt;&lt;thumb&gt;http://www.impawards.com/2006/posters/accepted.jpg&lt;/thumb&gt;&lt;thumb&gt;http://www.impawards.com/2006/posters/accepted_ver2.jpg&lt;/thumb&gt;&lt;thumb&gt;http://ia.media-imdb.com/images/M/MV5BMTkzNzY5OTc3Nl5BMl5BanBnXkFtZTcwNjE4NDQzMQ@@._V1._SX512_SY512_.jpg&lt;/thumb&gt;&lt;/thumbs&gt;&lt;thumbs&gt;&lt;thumb&gt;http://www.impawards.com/2006/posters/accepted.jpg&lt;/thumb&gt;&lt;thumb&gt;http://www.impawards.com/2006/posters/accepted_ver2.jpg&lt;/thumb&gt; etc ...

why is it using the encodings rather than actual < and > ?

Code:
<thumb>

  <thumbs>

     </thumbs>

</thumb>

(I notice the Thumbs tags are duplicate)

and why not just

Code:
<thumbs>

   <thumb>http://www.impawards.com/2006/posters/accepted.jpg</thumb>

   <thumb>http://www.impawards.com/2006/posters/accepted_ver2.jpg</thumb>

   etc

It's a known "issue". No ETA yet though Wink
