[QUOTE="Merlyn, post: 796611, member: 114248"] [b]AW: Force movie lookup using different scraper[/b] In Moving Pictures Configuration go to the Movie Manager tab. Select the movie that you want to rescrape and click on the small gear icon, then click on "send to importer". In the Importer Settings tab you can adjust the number of covers to download. Furthermore on this tab you can change the scrapers, that are used. You might want to consider changing the default scraper to [URL="https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/moving-pictures-284/imdb-scraper-fix-english-rename-group-rottentomatoes-more-v3-2-5-a-98978/"]IMDb+[/URL], as it yields much better results than the default scrapers. If I remember correctly MovPic does reuse the info from the default video database through a scraper called MyVideo (local). But I'm not sure here as I have only but once used the default Media Portal videos. In any case it will be a good idea to at leas add the release year of the movie to the filename. For best results I'd also suggest to add the imdb tt-id number. In your case Island.iso has only the word "Island" for the scraper to identify the movie and if you think about it you will agree, that this is not very much. Head over to imdb.com and just enter "island" as a search term, and you will see, that imdb does not know what you are looking for. [/QUOTE]
