Kodi/XBMC collections are already supported and have been for quite a long time.

Please refer to the support forums if you're having problems either automatically or
manually establishing collections in Media Center Master for Kodi/XBMC metadata.

Hi,

I'm not referring to xbmc's 'Sets' or 'Collections' which have limitations, but writing
line(s) in the nfo file as follows:
<tag>This group of movies</tag>
<tag>& this group of movies too</tag>

This is picked up by xbmc on scraping, and listed as "Tags", where you can view any
movies that have that Tag.
Any movie can be a member of multiple tags.

I would like to be able to define a list of possible Tags in MCM
Then assign any movie to any number of different Tags
Then have MCM write the necessary lines in the respective nfo for that movie
Also, on scanning, MCM should pick up any existing Tags within the nfo files, and include
in it's list of possible Tags
And MCM should be able to display which movies have a particular tag, and which tags
have a particular movie

Thanks,
Simon.

I understand -- you want keyword tags, not "allow the creation of custom collections"
specifically.

Keyword tags are supported in the base metadata already, so now that Kodi supports
them, I will make sure Media Center Master writes out tags to the NFO metadata.

Please separate your multiple requests into individual Issue Tracker requests:

(1) write keyword tags to Kodi NFO metadata  (remains here issue #1615)

(2) when automatically importing movie.xml metadata from Kodi NFO metadata, read and
import keyword tags  (new issue, please)

(3) add UI capability to search and filter based on keyword tags  (new issue, please)

This would be a neat feature. Can see in the forum that there are others with the same problem. Hope you have the time to make it happen. http://forums.mediacentermaster.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=10460&hilit=Nfo+tags&start=10

The tags do get populated to the NFO file but I can't seem to replace/change any in MCM.

Keyword tags exist in Kodi/XBMC metadata as of several releases ago now.
