Updating xml file when new video are added

[thewhite]

Hello,

I've developed an application that downloads video clips from games and renames the files according to the game. After moving the games to the corresponding Video folder, Launchbox sees that there's a video, but the XML file isn't corrected on this line: <MissingVideo>true</MissingVideo>

How do I update the XML file? Does Launchbox update it automatically after a certain amount of time? Manually, it updates by editing a game and then clicking OK, but I can't do this for every game. Any ideas?

If you're doing this via a plugin you can call IGame.GetVideoPath on the game you added the videos to and it'll update that flag. If using a application outside of LaunchBox you'd have to manually alter the XML yourself. LB updates that flag on it's own anytime it goes to fetch a video and finds one, or during specific scans to set that flag (like when using the Games Missing Media sidebar or the Audit tool)
