XML export and episodes to roksbox

(1/2) > >>

Question:  When exporting an xml to roksbox, titles that have seasons and episodes only export the top level, and not the season and episodes.  is there a way to have it export the seasons and episodes to the xml file for roksbox to read?

Thanks in advance for the help.

BTW, PVD rocks!!  Thanks for the great FREE product!

I do not know what is the sructure of the "roksbox" xml documents, but you can export episodes (title, original title, season number, episode number, year and description, rating, imdb rating and url)

See http://www.videodb.info/help/hlp_export.html for more info.

Thanks for the link.  I'm somewhat new to PVD.  I can't seem to get this to work.  I've added this to my xml file:  {%value=episodes template="pages\episode.ptm" grouptemplate="pages\season.ptm"}.  However, it is only showing Season 1 and nothing else.  I added also this: <epnum>{%value=epnum}</epnum>, but nothing.  I know I'm doing this wrong.  Do you have any examples or can you give me an example of how to get this info into the xml file?

Thanks so much for your help.

I know that in order for Roksbox to have episodes displayed, you must use an entry like this in genre section of the XML file:  [Television/Star Trek/Season 1]

I have manually added this to the genre section of PVD.  The problem that I see is PVD will not export episodes, just the top title (Star Trek).

Is this the case? Or am I missing something?  Is there not a way to export individual episodesto XML files in PVD?
