XML import does not work well
Hello, i just try the free version of Videonizer just to be sure all my fav function will work. For the import, it seems possible to create automatic new tags, artists and sites but it will not work. Only Path and Title will be imported but no tags, artis or sites are created. Also if I create manually a tag or artist he did not automatically recognize both during the import. Is it because I use the free version?
Seems I just found the bug... after I've changed the language from German to English import works as expected.
Update: Seems that was not the issue. Again tag and artis creation is not working.

It looks like you have constructed your XML manually and it is partially valid.
Tags and Actors sections should look like below (even if you have only one Actor or Tag):
Here is the whole valid example for you:
My advice is to export first if you want to see the correct structure.
