Hi. I have a question though, as Namespaces have been causing me a massive pain
Say I have an xml like this and I want to get the value at both sets tags...
00:24:41:24
00:06:54:07
... In this case I would need to use a more complex xpath such as './SOM/SmpteTimeCode' and './SmpteDuration/SmpteTimeCode' when I iterate through the file. This is fine if there is no namespace. However if there is a namespace present the only way I have found to work with this is to either remove the namespace from the file, and stick with the path type detailed about OR alternatively I need to add the namespace to every element within the xpath, like so:
'./{namespace}SOM/{namespace}SmpteTimeCode' and './{namespace}SmpteDuration/{namespace}SmpteTimeCode'
Is there a more elegant way of doing this?
I am aware that namespace can apparently be added as a 2nd argument to findall, however I cannot getting it working with xpaths like the above.
Any help is massively appreciated here
Cheers

Multiple namespaces....What is the use of programming if I am going copy-paste stuff from XML. It is dynamically scalable.

Nice video. Now try root.findAll('ns1:name1/ns2:name2', namespace). That I cannot get to work. Basically two namespaces in a single query.
