Maybe is there a way, when kisscon can download the images ? He gives it with the xml file, so he knows what images are needed for the epg stuff. Or maybe your tool can use the url's for downlaod and handle the fanart ?

This is from xml for epg...

<date>2012</date>
<category lang="de">|Actionthriller (Film)|</category>
<length units="minutes">117</length>
<icon src="http://image.tmdb.org/t/p/w154/8m9Uk99WUVgkZUwMv3q4MurltsR.jpg" />
<country lang="de">USA/SA</country>
<video>

So the source or an link to the source where there for the epg stuff. Now we need #... to show them

As far as i understand the xmltv dtd and from what i've seen in real life, there are only four places where an image url is included: channel, program, rating and star-rating

Ahhh, I missed icon attribute. This makes the structure/content even more unclear, because according to the DTD a programme can have zero or more icons as well as zero or more URLs (which could be images too).

That the <icon scr="" /> url within the <program /> element has to be an program image and not an actor image, should be self explanatory imho.

Not at all. I don't see any reason why it couldn't be an image for an actor that stars in the programme. After all, the credits elements (actor etc.) do not provide any opportunity to put a URL there. Even if you don't agree, the point I'm trying to make is that it's not as "self explanatory" as you say. Your example is only one source; other sources can and will be different.

Where xml?

Please don't use the XMLTV source file (tvguide.xml) directly.

It's just a bad idea. Best of all the data to ask the TV client. And he let them know on TV server.

Of course! That's what I meant.

So maybe we need a plugin that can read the generated xml and write the infos in db from tv server ? That you mean ? And then the Client can read it from there and can show it ?

This is a tool from kodi, this brings the images to the GUI. So he use the xml for the info and download this images and bring it on the screen. Maybe this is a address ?

We already have this plugin. I need to know what values are above described properties. Then I can say what I can do.
