Grabbers broken (2 Viewers)

[CSMR]

Mediaportal 1.23 with grabbers updated via Mediaportal Configuration has several problems:

1. There are 3 IMDB EN grabbers (one called "IMDB with AKA" and two with version numbers) when there should be 1.
2. None of the these IMDB grabbers retrieve the Plot successfully (all return "unknown"). So these three should be replaced by a single grabber that works.
3. There is a TMDB grabber but there are many movies that it cannot find, despite being tagged with a tt number and the movie existing in both IMDB and TMDB. So something is wrong with TMDB search. Presumably TMDB search does not know about IMDB Ids so if the solution to the IMDB grabber problems is to migrate to TMDB, there needs to be a TMDB Id field.

I try to see but IMDB_MP117x and TI_MDB should work ...

Turn on IMDB lookup in TMDB.csscript ...

  public const bool API_IMDB_LOOKUP = false; // IMDB LookUp

IMDB_MP117x does not work.
TI_MDB works, but it isnt included in the scripts available online (downloaded via mediaportal configuration). It can be downloaded from github (link) and copied in manually.
TMDB.csscript (link) doesn't contain any reference to the setting you mention.

At the moment I would suggest making TI_MDB available online and removing IMDB.csscript, [URL='https://github.com/MediaPortal/MediaPortal-1/blob/master/mediaportal/MediaPortal.Base/scripts/MovieInfo/IMDB_MP117x.csscript']IMDB_MP117x.csscript, [URL='https://github.com/MediaPortal/MediaPortal-1/blob/master/mediaportal/MediaPortal.Base/scripts/MovieInfo/IMDB_MP13x.csscript']IMDB_MP13x.csscript, and [URL='https://github.com/MediaPortal/MediaPortal-1/blob/master/mediaportal/MediaPortal.Base/scripts/MovieInfo/TMDB.csscript']TMDB.csscript.[/URL][/URL][/URL]

I am on 1.23.

I got my setup working using TI_MDB (manual download from github) but I could set up another system for testing in a few days. However there is only any point in testing or improving the best one, which as far as I can tell is TI_MDB, as the rest should be deleted. No need to maintain more than one grabber per language.

Only issue with TI_MDB is that it doesn't respect "[tt...]" inside filenames and uses the other part of the filename instead. Other than that it's very good.

Grabber search tt.. as full name or in End of name ... Try:
tt0343818.mkv or I Robot tt0343818.mkv

      // Get IMDB ID from search string
      Regex rximdbid = new Regex(@"(?:\s|\+|^)(?<imdbid>tt\d{7})\b");
