Series-xml en
From Ultimate Media Collector (UMC) - Wiki
As you know from the „movie.xml“ for movies, this „xml-file“ „series.xml“ helps to find the right series and the season and episode assignment.
The „series.xml“ (download here » http://www.popcornforum.de/showthread.php?tid=5968) can be used to declare distinct a series and this helps the search for movie informations.
The "series.xml" is identified with pattern [Series] --> seriesname[Series].xml and can be in a optional directory. This directory has to be defined as a library with Scan-Type "for nfo-xml-files" or "for images and NFOs"!
ATTENTION: In this version series has to be declared with this pattern: SxxExxx
--> seriesname - S01E01 - episode.avi - Therefore the patterns "S" and "E" have to be in the filename!
Attention: The pattern are case-sensitive, take care of upper and lower case!!
