Hi guys,
I'm setting up my music videos with indvidual nfo files as I've had trouble automatically scraping them. I've also tried setting up smart playlists for just music videos (using Aeon65 skin) but if i select Mixed instead of Songs I can't add any rules. If I use Songs, and add rules then I get both CD songs as well as music videos. The best way I've found is to add a rule that contains the text "Music Video" within Genre. I've tested it on a few videos and it works perfectly. I now need to go back into all my nfo files and add this identifier. Is there a way of doing this automatically? The script (assuming it is a script) would need to go through a standard tree structure eg:
\\Server\MyMusicVideos\Muse
Although some groups have album folders beneath the band e.g.
\\Server\MyMusicVideos\Whitesnake\1987
and
\\Server\MyMusicVideos\Whitesnake\Slip Of The Tongue
Also, I'm guessing I'd need to do add a find and replace <Genre> with <Genre>Music Video in the script somewhere
Any thoughts, pointers, general help would be greatfully appreciated.
