NFO Critic Rating Question

[abescalamis 84]

Good Morning

 

@@Luke, In the Kodi forum I asked the developer of Ember Media Manager to add the rotten tomatoes rating to the NFO that his program creates, Emby adds it as Critic Rating ( <criticrating>52</criticrating>).

 

This is what he said:

 

 

Next version supports the new Kodi multirating nodes. I've to check if Emby also can read it or if I have to add a <criticrating> node.
Another problem is that I still don't get a RT API key to get the rating and OMDb has some issue in the API with RT rating.

 

Would he have to add  <criticrating> node , for emby to read the Rotten Tomato rating?

Yes that's correct.

Hello there. Similar to this, I have .nfo's created with TinyMediaManager that contain:
 

  <ratings>

    <rating default="false" max="10" name="themoviedb">

      <value>7.0</value>

      <votes>61</votes>

    </rating>

    <rating default="true" max="10" name="imdb">

      <value>7.3</value>

      <votes>7172</votes>

    </rating>

 

Is there a way to get Emby to use this format? It looks like it doesn't import the ratings at all this way.

 

thanks.

Hi, is that specific to TinyMediaManager  ?

Thanks for the fast reply Luke It looks like it’s the Kodi nfo format:

Yes we should be able to support that.

[invader 17]

Ok great. Should I raise a feature request? Or do you mean that Emby should already be able to handle that?

[pünktchen 1409]

Yes we should be able to support that.

If you implement this, you should read the rating from "default=true" and not necessarily the tmdb rating! Many users prefer imdb over tmdb because it's more comparative and in TMM the user has a choice to set his defaults.

Please try version 1.0.19 of the Nfo metadata plugin and it should read them now. Thanks.

Wow that was quick! Thanks Luke. I’ll test tonight.
