Adding clearart and year to generated nfo
Feature request
I'm submitting a proposal to ...
- [ ] new feature
- [X] change an existing feature
Describe your request
When adding a series or movie to the library, clearart / clearlogo information is not created in the nfo file - which is clearly visible, for example, in Netflix-My List. Not all series / episodes are scrapable by other scrapers - so I use NFO files
Describe the use case
With cleart form netflix plugin:
From library without clearart:
And nfo file for this tvshow (generated by plugin):

And maybe add information about the year of production? Because it is currently empty and the kodi stubbornly shows 1969, not 2018
the nfo data are based on netflix metadata only, there are limited info, are not the same data as the directories (like MyList) clearart not exists on metadata
for the "year" is not specified at "show" level data, but maybe i could read the year from the first season ATM not remember how works all NFO code i will need to check
Then you made me sad, my friend. As a penalty, I will finally complete the Polish translation.
Theoretically it works. Not at all views, but it's my skin's fault - I have to bury a little in it.
Wait! reading this: https://kodi.wiki/view/NFO_files/TV_shows It's better to use premiered instead year - but it's still shows me 1969... LOL... Nevermind - there's something wrong with kodi and reading nfo files
i think the problem is the date format we have only the year value not the full date
from your link
Format as 2019-01-31
and also:
Release Year. Do not use. Use <premiered> instead
i do not know when this change is happened i do not know if can be solved in some way if you have time try investigate
i tried investigate better, the <year> tag seem has been ~deprecated in Kodi v18 and removed on v19~
so IMO the best thing that we can do is replace it with <premiered> and hardcode month/day.
by testing on Kodi 20 appears to works correctly, and in the info screen dialog the year along the title appears correctly
will be fix for next release
EDIT: found an old PR and "year" is not deprecated nor removed but still works but seem slight differently, and i am not able to understand why the value is not displayed in the information screen, also kodi wiki documentation its not so clear. For your skin i think you have to check what value is read kodi skin use ListItem.Year only
