[QUOTE="Anthony Vaughan, post: 1286928, member: 153283"] The director is always fetched. It's part of the GetMovieInfo processing. All of the other actor information and the roles for each actor is now optional for both the first fetch and refreshing. This is the bit that takes a very long time and, I thought, would be good to make optional. It's not just me who thinks this, CyberSimian said the same thing earlier in this thread. However, should you want to fetch all of the actor information for a movie or for all of your movies, you can now do so either using the refresh option or using the Lookup option: [ATTACH type="full"]209429[/ATTACH] In the screen above setting actor data OFF/ON affects both Skip files already in the database and Refresh existing files. When you choose to refresh, and you haven't chosen to use nfo scraper, you only have to click once to refresh all of your existing movies (in the movieinfo table).
