I’m trying first time to read xml-file using AppleScript and i’m totally clueless, how its done.

I need to get list/record of Recordings and another list/record of Schedules, and these lists contains all available informantion about Recordings and Schedules.

Macintosh HD:Users:Cirno:Movies:EyeTV:EyeTV Archive:EyeTV Archive.xml

I know how to read/write plist which dont have any “sub-folders” like this file has, but these “sub-folders” confuses me.

I have tried to figure this out, but without luck.

It sounds like your only problem is the path to the ‘EyeTV Archive.xml’ file.
This works for me (on Tiger).

tell application "Finder"
	set home_path to home as Unicode text
	try
		open home_path & "Movies:EyeTV:EyeTV Archive:EyeTV Archive.xml" as Unicode text
	end try
end tell

Thanks, but my real problem is that i have never before done anything with xml-files and i simply dont know how to extract any information from xml.
