To split them, add <!-- ITEMS --> string before and <!-

Optionaly: make preview images (see CONFIG file section).

Best resolution for preview images is 200x150px

TEMPLATE TAGS

ery tag name starts with "@" character. Between tags you can put

two special strings: @TITLE@ and @DATA@ wich will be replaced

with fields (translated if needed) title and movie data.

Example: <@runtime>@TITLE@ field contains "@DATA@" da

ta</@runtime> will be transformed into: Runtime field contains

"120 min." data
