Using "My Movies" movie collection management software as source for movie meta data?

So will this ever be in the official release (sorry i really dont know what SVN stands for lol)

It now hangs whenever I try to start it. I'll try to reinstall...

pecinko, nope. which field in library should this be imported to?

I am new to XBMC but would love to switch from vista media center. I use my movies and have tried importing MM data with a somewhat recent SVN and everything works great for me except genres. I only get one genre when I often times have multiple genres in MM. If I manually change the specific mymovies.xml from

<Genres>
<Genre>Adventure</Genre>
<Genre>Comedy</Genre>
<Genre>Fantasy</Genre>
<Genre>Action</Genre>
</Genres>

to

<Genres>
<Genre>Adventure/Comedy/Fantasy/Action</Genre>
</Genres>

it will pick them up. Is this just me or is there something I need to do different. Thanks for an awesome tool.

Having multiple genre tags should be fine (at least from looking at the code). Mind uploading your mymovies.xml somewhere? Maybe it is due to some invalid characters.

Below are 4 mymovies.xml samples with multiple genres and only the first genre showed up when I imported them. I appended part of the title name to each as they natively maintain the "mymovies.xml" naming scheme. Just to make sure I am doing this right I'll outline my method.

In XBMC I select add source in the video menu. I navigate to the top folder with movie subfolders in it and select it. Then I choose "set content" and set it to "Movies". I choose "My Movies" from the list of scrapers and highlight "Run automated scan" and "Scan recursively". I can see a status message that it is downloading information for the movies and all the data is there when its done except a single genre for those that have multiple genres. When I search by genre the titles only appear under the first genre found in the mymovies.xml.

I am using this SVN "XBMCSetup-Rev16501-kricker-externalplayer" and My Movies 2.49. I realize I can update both the SVN and MM, but they are fairly current. Any help is much appreciated and I am hoping for an obvious mistake on my part that is easily corrected.

XML samples

Someone must have changed my code since my patch, because I didn't code it as a scrapper but rather like the existing nfo xml support. I do not have a setup currently for doing any debugging or anything. I'm fairly sure I did test multiple genres though...

Fixed in SVN revision 16572.

dont be confused by the ignorance going around. your code is not changed, it is not a scraper, it is just an xml loader as you wrote. so you can relax, it was just shoddy written xml loading code, nothing else

You're calling my code shoddy, or the existing NFO XML code it was based upon?
