Also, anyone else getting lots of multiples / doubles in the <credits> tag? For some reason I have like the same writer or writers duped sometimes twice and sometimes even three times. Weird!

more TV series tags that don't need to be on movies (and correct me if I am wrong):

Here is the latest update:

should all be processed correctly now
Sleepy - with regards to doubles in the credits, these are scraped as is from IMDB - i checked and a person can be named several times for eg, as story writer and for screen play.
As always, feedback is much appreciated.
Next on my to do list will be to give people the option to strip out unwanted tags.

Just tested it, works great man. took like 2 seconds to finish!

I know the doubles aren't your fault, just thought it was weird, especially cuz its been very inconsistent. Any chance you could have the program do any string processing or look for duplicate strings? I know that would be tricky as far as the looping and whatnot goes, but it would be fracking awesome.
Also, what do you guys think about an option to skip / remove tags that are empty?

I've just uploaded the latest version
http://www.mediafire.com/?yjs3jzyzbct
Think this is almost complete now - the options to remove unwanted tags are now implemented. the GUI has also been cleaned up and looks a lot more professional.
If anyone finds a bug then please let me know.

Also, I gotta get you FTP access to my site so you can stop using that ghetto host.

Thanks for this. I still see weird characters, example: "Ocean's.Eleven.CD2.nfo". Thanks again.

billyad2000: any specifc reason you a targetting the .net 3.5 framework. why not use .net 2.0.
As for the app awesome idea, I was considering making something like this as well. But instead i went for the boring option of just copying and pasting everything to its own nfo.
Hehe i was however working on a 'Movie Nfo' previewer. So it actually renders an nfo to a Windows Form, and how it would look in XBMC. (Did the part cheapy using a Sereializer), i haven't put in the effort for the rendering part yet

However I decided that if I was going to get back into the programming habbit then it would be better to use the latest tools available, so I obtained Visual Studio 2008 and that meant .net 3.5.
Is there some disadvantage to 3.5 that I am unaware of. Let me know

The program is now working brilliantly, and all of my feedback is entirely aesthetic stuff.
A few requests:
-would you be able to run a string replace on the whole doc and replace " " (4 spaces) with "" (nothing)? The spaces are not needed and unnecessarily bloat the output files a bit.
-Along similair lines, there's an empty line left at the end of each file which could be trimmed.
-Could the <premiered> tag be added to the optional removal list? seems to be related to TV and is empty on ever file I have seen so far.
-the final aesthetic tweak is: would it be possible to replace the string "min" found inside the <runtime> tag with "minutes"?
These are all things I have been tweaking manually on the output, so I figured they might be of interest to you
Awesome program!
