<set>Hmarley and me Collection</set>

Its a typo i haven't tried. Nfo

Code:

<movie>

I get the same issue with some movies too.

For example I have all of the Pirates of the Caribbean movies, all with

<set>Pirates of the Caribbean Collection</set>
<sorttitle>Pirates100</sorttitle> (with subsequent set movies Pirates200, Pirates300 etc)

No matter how many times I refresh etc there is one movie that won't be included in the set.

jonatan; what you have should work, but that doesn't necessarily mean that it will Smile

You guys should try using Media Center Manager to created the NFO for you, then open the nfo in wordpad, and set the <set> tag to whatever you want to name the collection. It always works for me, and that program auto downloads all of the artwork and the TBN as well which makes scraping insanely fast.

I use the <set> tag all the time especially when I want to have a collection of say "Stand Up Comedy" in my movies folder. I use this process above and just add "Stand Up Comedy" to the <set> tag. Hope that helps someone

there's a lot more to my metadata than this for the pirates movies, but mine is set up like this and it sorts them properly (this is only the first few lines of code)

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<movie xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">

    <title>Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl</title>

    <originaltitle>Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl</originaltitle>

    <sorttitle>Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl</sorttitle>

    <set>Pirates of the Caribbean Collection</set>

Thanks that worked perfect.
I use ember media manager for all data
Just realized that ember media manager has a movies set manager were you can set up your sets manually
