NFO with scraper does not work for me - Paradise - 2009-06-22

Hi,

there are some things i don't understand.

But first. Is it posible to use a nfo and srap also?

Quote:This allows XBMC to skip it's normal lookup and/or search procedures, useful if a file's information is not available on any of the scraper sites, or if the filematching criteria fails for the particular file.

Sounds like yes. But how?

I have the things in my nfo that i want to put in manually and <id>3965</id> for themoviedb.org or <id>tt0472043</id> for IMDB. But no rating shows up. The tags i want to scrap i left out.

What if i have nothing for a tag - is it better to put all tags in there and let them emty or to don't put them in?

And what are these tags good for:
<outline>?</outline> I know what a tagline is.
<playcount>?</playcount> I think this is something XBMC sets
<watched>false</watched> I think this is something XBMC sets
<filenameandpath>?</filenameandpath>
<trailer>?</trailer>

Thanks for helping

Thanks,

i allways check the wiki, but its a lot of stuff and sometimes you overread.

It works, but now i have "Directed by: Mel Gibson / Mel Gibson"

And my other questions?
So if i put the url on bottom what if tags i don't want are not in the nfo or just <year></year>?

So if i put the url in, what is <id></id> for?

Is there a complete list of tags? I thing the one in the wiki is not complete, cause i do not see <studio>

try exporting a movie or the entire db for a list of all available tags.
