I want to get a list of all movies in my XBMC database, regardless of if they are in a movie set. The standard call to "VideoLibrary.GetMovies" does not cut it, as you can see below. It returns a single file, with a "videodb://" protocol.
Is there another call I can use to dig into the movie set? Any other ideas? I don't know enough about how XBMC handles movie sets to know what to do from here.

Code:

{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "VideoLibrary.GetMovies", "id": "1"}
{
    "id" : "1",
    "jsonrpc" : "2.0",
    "result" : {
        "end" : 1,
        "movies" : [
            {
                "fanart" : "special://masterprofile/Thumbnails/Video/Fanart/ffffffff.tbn",
                "file" : "videodb://1/7/5/",
                "label" : "My Movie Set",
                "thumbnail" : "special://masterprofile/Thumbnails/Video/f/feb6af9f.tbn"
            }
        ],
        "start" : 0,
        "total" : 1
    }
}

As I never used sets so far I never noticed but I just tested it and you are right. What you can do to at least get at the movies in a set is to call "Files.GetDirectory" with the "videodb://...." path returned in the "file" field of GetMovies. This will provide you with a list of the movies in the set.

Can you please create a ticket on trac so it won't be forgotten?
Best solution would be to return all movies with GetMovies() and provide a "set" field with the name of the set a movie is in (if it is in a set at all).

Looks like there already is a related trac ticket at #10296 so no need to create a new one. I committed a fix which will only return movies for GetMovies() and no sets. This might have to be extended in the future to allow better moviesets handling (depending on the need).
