Lets say you have xml representing the various series:


<items>		
	<item>
			  <itemtype>series</itemtype>
			  <title>Flash Gordon</title>
			  <episodes>12</episodes>
			  <HDposter>http://myserver.com/series/flashgordon/seriesposterHD.jpg</HDposter>
			  <SDposter>http://myserver.com/series/flashgordon/seriesposterSD.jpg</SDPoster>
			  <episode_list_url>http://myserver.com/series/flashgordon.xml</episode_list_url>
			  <description>The original scifi series</description>
	</item>
	<item>
			  <itemtype>series</itemtype>
			  <title>Buck Rogers</title>
			  <episodes>22</episodes>
			  <HDposter>http://myserver.com/series/buckrodgers/seriesposterHD.jpg</HDposter>
			  <SDposter>http://myserver.com/series/buckrodgers/seriesposterSD.jpg</SDPoster>
			  <episode_list_url>http://myserver.com/series/buckrodgers.xml</episode_list_url>
			  <description>The original scifi series</description>
	</item>
	<item>
			  <itemtype>movie</itemtype>
			  <title>Space Cruiser Yamato</title>
			  <HDposter>http://myserver.com/movies/yamatoHD.jpg</HDposter>
			  <SDposter>http://myserver.com/movies/yamatoSD.jpg</SDPoster>
			  <description>The 2010 live action Star Blazers movie!</description>
			  <streams>
				  <stream>
					  <url>http://myserver.com/movies/yamato384k.mp4</url>
					  <bitrate>384</bitrate>
					  <quality>false</quality>
				  </stream>
				  <stream>
					  <url>http://me.com/yamato2500k.mp4</url>
					  <bitrate>2500</bitrate>
					  <quality>true</quality>
				  <stream>
			  </streams>
	</item>
</items>

So when the user selects a series, you check if the content type is a single item or a series. If it is a movie, then launch an roSpringboardScreen to display the movie and let the user play it, otherwise use the episode_list_url to retrieve the list of episodes as xml, parse that data then create a new roPosterScreen and display that content there.
