in an xml.builder view:  
xml.flv\_playlist do {  
@movies.each do |movie|  
xml.description(:name =\> “Name”)  
xml.description(:name =\> “Rating”)

xml.video(:name =\> “#{movie.number} (#{movie.length})” Rating=  
movie.rating)  
xml.video(:name =\> “#{movie.number} (#{movie.length})” Rating=  
movie.rating)

end  
}
