Done this. It worked like a charm! But I have more instances of Mediaportal in my home. I checked the Options on another one. By default, it has "special_edition", "rename_titles", "refresh_all_fields" and "secondary_summary" set to "true". I have never done anything to the options. This is how...

I don't know how to test the localization also. RoChess (lives in the US) advised me to use a VPN also and set it to the USA. I did this, but the results were the same. It's not so easy to fool the original IMDB.com. But if you log in with your IMDB-account, you can set the movie titles to...

I did what you said.

I found something: when scraping almost all movies are being picked up by IMDB+ according to Moving Pictures thanks to your adjustments. But it seems that the Rename dBase IMDb+ Scraper.xml is not used. A few examples: Despicable Me (2010) becomes Despicable Me (2010) instead of...

Thanks again. You being from Australia, you won't have a problem. Me, from the Netherlands I do. I am confronted with a localized version of IMDB. If a Dutch title is available, it is used. But if I use the IMDB site and search for i.e. Snowwhite and the Seven Dwarfs (1937) I get all info in...

You truly are a wizard!!! Your tips worked like a charm! Now IMDB+ is doing what it always did. Thank you very much. I myself would never have found the way the XML is put into Moving Pictures. How did you find that out? And more so: how did you find out about the changes IMDB.com imposed and...

Great stuff! I want to try your update, but I have two issues: how to download your attachment as an XML file and where to put it? I looked everywhere for the original IMDB+ XML, but haven't found it.

I have tried everything you said and read it over and over again, without succes. I let it rest for a while and almost got used to the scraper "themoviedb.org". Today I re-read your comments and one remark from you struck me: Well, this never was the case, but I thought: what the heck? Just...

Thanks for your elaborate answer! I have done the following: installed 1.32 x86, plugins were all at the latest version already. Running import in Moving Pictures: same thing. All movies being picked up by themoviedb.org and NOT IMDb+. I also tried your attached script: no change. You wonder...

You mean this?

Should I upgrade to 1.32?

Version 1.30. Not sure what you mean by the logs? Never done that before and using 1.30 for a long time now.

I have relocated 150 movies to another drive, so I had Moving Pictures rescrape them again. Of course I have IMDB+ as my primary source for movie details as always. Now, no movie whatsoever is being picked up by IMDB+! All have the "themoviedb.org" as source, although it is 4th in my...

Why is there a diffference between Blu Ray and UHD movies in how they are picked up by IMDB+? I have a blu ray in a folder called "Mission Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One tt9603212 (2023)" which is correctly transformed by IMDB+ to: Mission: Impossible VII - Dead Reckoning Part One I have...

I have a reasonably modern HTPC setup: LG OLED77, Pioneer AV-Receiver SC LX901, 7.1 Klipsch speaker setup and a PC with nice specs with MP 1.30. Everything connected with HDMI. I have lav-filters setup to bitstream EVERY format. If I don't do this, I get a very unimpressive result from all my...
