Revision as of 20:27, 3 October 2008

As of SVN build 10279 date 2007-09-18, XBMC added the ability to include Music Videos in the Video and Music Libraries. All scanned music videos will show up in both. Music Videos can also be part of Party Mode and Smart Playlists. Playlists containing both music and music videos should be stored in the mixed playlist subfolder under The UserData Folder.

Music Videos Support in XBMC

Music Videos support is through a new content type. Currently you can choose between a MTV scraper or a provided nfo file containing information on the music video. Failing that it will use the filename as a basis for the database entry (Artistname - Songname).

For further information on Music video nfo files please look here:

Modifying the scraper to use different filenaming conventions

The Music video scraper can be found at the following location under the XBMC home directory
