MovieNfoProvider problem with <set> tag

[al15 0]

Hello,

 

i am new to emby - so far i only used Kodi as standalon and TMM for metadata management.

 

Today i installed emby and also got the connection to kodi running but now i face some problems with my nfo files and box sets.

 

I have all movies in a single directory and used TMM to organize the box sets. Movies without box set are working fine but movies with this tags are not getting all data from the nfo (basically everything before the tag is imported) - here a sample:

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>

<!-- created on 2016-11-19 20:56:35 - tinyMediaManager 2.9 -->

<movie>

    <title>Batman Begins</title>

    <originaltitle>Batman Begins</originaltitle>

    <set>

        <name>The Dark Knight Filmreihe</name>

        <overview>Neuauflage der Comicfigur Batman von Christopher Nolan als Trilogie (2005 - 2012)</overview>

    </set>

    <rating>7.3</rating>

    <year>2005</year>

if i remove the <set> tag the nfo is imported successfully...

 

Here my questions:

- is there a way to modify the MofieNfoProvider to allow this tags

- is there a way to use this tag to create the box information for emby?

 

THANKS

I thought the set tag was just supposed to be a text node?

Hi,

 

the new set tags where added in v16 now the format is like this:

 

<set>

        <name>'name of set'</name>

        <overview>'plot of set'</overview>

</set>

 

Here the info from the release notes:

* Added support for set overview (plot) in movie sets in the video libra

 

Any chance to support this in the MovieNfoProvider?

 

THANKS

Hi.

 

as the github issue was closed (waiting for update on kodi wiki) can you please build in a skip in case of an unknown tag as otherwise the following infos are not added to the DB.

 

Thanks

What do you mean unknown?

Hi,

 

the tag:

 

    <set>

        <name>The Dark Knight Filmreihe</name>

        <overview>Neuauflage der Comicfigur Batman von Christopher Nolan als Trilogie (2005 - 2012)</overview>

    </set>

 

The problem is that emby also not reading any information after this tag..

Hi Luke,

 

thanks i tested the latest beta and it seams the issue with not looking up the other infos is fixed - THANKS

 

Additional the Kodi wiki was now changed to reflect the new set tag format:

http://kodi.wiki/view/NFO_files/movies#Movie_sets

 

Can you please also add the support for the new format:

<set>
<name>My movie set</name>
<overview>This is my awesome movie set.</overview>
</set>

The <overview> tag is optional, and the current format will still be supported
to not break existing scrapers or local NFO files.

 

THANKS again for the great support

Thanks for the feedback.

Hi Folks

 

Does emby currently support writing the <set> tag?

 

Been searching but not 100% sure!

[Luke 42080]

Hi, yes we do.

[feardamhan 6]

Thanks Luke. So putting something in a collection doesnt seem to add the set for me. Is that the way to do it? I'm missing something obvious.

Thanks Luke. So putting something in a collection doesnt seem to add the set for me. Is that the way to do it? I'm missing something obvious.

 

I believe Emby only writes the <set> tag with collections on TMDB, when pulling metadata.  It doesn't write custom collections (at least it didn't in the test I just did).

[Luke 42080]

It comes from data from moviedb, if you have that metadata provider enabled.

[feardamhan 6]

I have it enabled as the secondary provider. So its fair to say that whether its pulled in or not is dependent fully on whether moviedb has a collection set up for those movies. I could presumably manually enter the <set> tags in the nfo file and have them honoured but there is no way to do so through metadata manager?

[Luke 42080]

Correct, and I think we just haven't added that into the metadata editor. It's possible for the future.

[feardamhan 6]

Thanks for the confirmation Luke. Would be nice enhancement, but  for the amount I'd need it I'd happily tweak the NFO files directly.
