Writers in movie.nfo

[kim]

there is a problem with the <writer> part of movie.nfo

this will make the <writer> blank
e.g. on http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2322441
"Writers: Kelly Marcel (screenplay), E.L. James (novel)"

same on themoviedb.org

it only works when it say "writer" but it need to take "screenplay" and maybe "novel" to.

can you make so or tell us how to thx

What is the plex/kodi specification on how to add "people" to movie.nfo?

I can add all of them, just need to know how the movie.nfo xml should look like. Please provide examples.

Kodi:
<credits></credits>

e.g.
<credits>James Cameron</credits>
<credits>some other dude</credits>

See GitHub for the latest changes. It's writing out a lot more tags now.

thx it works but remember "<credits>" is = the old "<writer>"

so now it takes WAY to many ppl that are not writers but do something else

we need to only get the ppl in the Writing Department
e.g.
David Fraser=Screenplay
Atom Egoyan=Screenplay
Atom Egoyan=Story"

the old "<writer>" worked but only when it said e.g. Atom Egoyan=writer so
its needs to scan for min. "writer" + "Screenplay" and maybe "Story" "novel" to


e.g. https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/244761-the-captive

<director>Atom Egoyan</director>
<credits>David Fraser</credits>
<credits>Stephen Traynor</credits>
<credits>John Buchan</credits>
<credits>Jason Knight</credits>
<credits>Paul Sarossy</credits>
<credits>Mychael Danna</credits>
<credits>Susan Shipton</credits>
<credits>Debra Hanson</credits>
<credits>Phillip Barker</credits>

<credits>Atom Egoyan</credits>
