Hi, im an xbox xbmc user with Latest nightly build.

I have a question about MC generated nfo's

Is there any way that you can make the first entry of
"<codec>MPEG-4 Visual</codec>" &
"<format>MPEG-4 Visual</format>"
actually read say xvid or divx depending on the film, because Transparency skin picks up the "MPEG-4 Visual" and displays an "mpeg4 compression icon",for all my films, when I manually enter xvid in place of the MPEG-4 Visual entries it nicley displays the xvid icon. It doen't seem to pick up the <codecid>XVID</codecid> entry further down the nfo.

so from this MC generated nfo

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<multiepisodenfo>
<episodedetails>
<streamdetails>
<fileinfo>
<video>
<width>624</width>
<height>352</height>
<codec>MPEG-4 Visual</codec>
<format>MPEG-4 Visual</format>
<duration>20mn 41s 909ms</duration>
<width>1 061 Kbps</width>
<bitratemode>
</bitratemode>
<bitratemax>
</bitratemax>
<container>.avi</container>
<codecid>XVID</codecid>
<codecidinfo>
</codecidinfo>
<scantype>PPF</scantype>
</video>
<audio>
<language>
</language>
<codec>MPEG Audio</codec>
<channels>2</channels>
<bitrate>120 Kbps</bitrate>
</audio>
</fileinfo>
</streamdetails>

to this manually modified nfo

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<multiepisodenfo>
<episodedetails>
<streamdetails>
<fileinfo>
<video>
<width>624</width>
<height>352</height>
<codec>xvid</codec>
<format>xvid</format>
<duration>20mn 41s 909ms</duration>
<width>1 061 Kbps</width>
<bitratemode>
</bitratemode>
<bitratemax>
</bitratemax>
<container>.avi</container>
<codecid>XVID</codecid>
<codecidinfo>
</codecidinfo>
<scantype>PPF</scantype>
</video>
<audio>
<language>
</language>
<codec>MPEG Audio</codec>
<channels>2</channels>
<bitrate>120 Kbps</bitrate>
</audio>
</fileinfo>
</streamdetails>

Dont know if this is possible
Thanks for all your effort

John.

I dont think its picking up any tags from this build,

Apparently the streamdetails and fileinfo tags are the wrong way around.

Hi,

It was me who notified you of the stream details round the wrong way.
So what I did was modified them round the right way , and my previous entry is how they are imported in.

Hi,

what a star the codec change in the nfo has worked a treat.....Fantastic
It now displays xvid and divx as the correct codec on screen

Is there any chance in a future build that you could modify the audio codec entry from the following
"<codec>MPEG Audio</codec>" this just displays "MPEG2" flag for all movies in Transparency skin.
So that the flags on screen would be mp3 or whatever the audio actually is.


Thanks a lot

John
