Movie Bundles vs Collection
posted by AikhjartoSTAFFMOD on January 6, 2013 at 9:21 AM
Hi folks,
Here in Austria, we have a very famous "collection"/"bundle" of movies, called "Der österreichische Film". The most important Austrian Movies are released or re-released under this brand. So I started to add a collection that contains all movies released under the brand "Der österreichische Film".
However, I stumbled over the problem that a movie can only be part of a single collection. E.g., the movies "Komm, süßer Tod" http://www.themoviedb.org/movie/10469-komm-s-sser-tod is already part of "Simon Brenner Collection" http://www.themoviedb.org/collection/76291-simon-brenner-collection but would be also part of "Der österreichische Film".
Is there a way on TMDB to reflect such collections as "Der österreichische Film"?
best regards
Aikhjarto

You can make a list.

Can I import such lists in XMBC like the collections?

No, I don't believe XBMC supports lists at this time.
I would encourage you to ask them for support.

Is there a possibility to add a distributor to a movie (like in the IMDB)? Since the movies labeled with "Der Österreichische Film" come from all from the same distributor, this would allow an easy an searchable grouping.
As there is no need any more for the "Der Österreichische Film" collection, you can delete http://www.themoviedb.org/collection/155886-der-sterreichische-film

We only support production companies and not distributors at this time.
