Using xbmc nfo and producer record

Hi,

First off, thanks for Serviio - it's awesome but I do have hopefully a simple question. I am using xmbc type .nfo for metadata as I already have all the data on my media. It's working except for the
producer record. I've tried using several of my own combinations as well as nfo's produced straight from an export in XMBC and none work. I've searched for info on the xmbc schema and although I
did find a page at http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Import_-_Export_Library#TV_Shows_2, I don't see where it defines producer at all. Can you tell me what it should be ?

For the record, I really don't care about the actual producer as much as year and was intending to set the record to the movie year as a way to browse by it.

Thanks,

Producers are not stored from XBMC nfo files (as you say they are not provided)

Thank you for the update. I was hoping there might be some undocumented way to get Serviio to pick it up. Still, it's not critical.

Re: Using xbmc nfo and producer record

You can add the producer information to the .nfo file that XBMC uses.

Here is an example of how I've used it...

<credits>Robb Cullen (writer)</credits>

Within XBMC it will depend on which skin you are using as to how this is displayed. experiement and see for yourself.
