IMDB slow

enchant · 2008-05-28, 14:14

I find that if I want to download information on a specific movie from IMDB, it takes forever. Most of the time is downloading actor info. And for a movie with a lot of listed actors, this can take 5-10 minutes. All I want is the plot.

Is there a way to configure MP to not download the actor info, or some other method for controlling IMDB?

Sure in the config under movies>database>scan (I think) you see a option called "Download actors".
I never use this...
