[QUOTE="tonyrums, post: 664659, member: 107478"] I've been reading the forums for a while now and still haven't found out why there is so much trouble grabbing the correct information from IMDB. For example... I have all of my DVD's in a folder where the files were named like: Airheads.ISO the EN IMDB aka grabber can't find that movie for some reason... When I go to manually find it in MP, i have to search: Air Heads Now I have no idea what methods are used in the scripts to find movies, but I thought I would make the suggestion anyway... In the URL for imdb: [url]http://www.imdb.com/title/[/url] - after title/ there is a unique path to the corresponding movie... So for Airheads the URL is [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0109068/]Airheads (1994) - IMDb[/url] Can we get MP to support searching for the IMDB info based off of that string: tt0109068 I manually go to the IMDB site for each movie that I add to MP, and rename based on what they have entered in for the title. Ironically, when MP goes to IMDB to find it by the title that i copied and pasted from the IMDB site, "No IMDB info found!" Sorry if this has been addressed before,:oops: but I did do some searching (probably not enough) and I just recently discovered MP Thanks! :thx: MediaPortal v1.1.1 + USB-UIRT + 4TB of DVD's [/QUOTE]
