[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 1111909, member: 18896"] Can not just go by a single movie, so you would have to verify a ton of them for me, but the following is the only part inside the HTML source that I might be able to use to detect that IMDb is giving translated/localized titles: [code] generic.monitoring.set_twilight_info( "title", "NO", [/code] The same "Scent of a Woman" entry gives me "US" for that one. If you are able to help me verify that this is consistent, then I will be able to fix IMDb+ finally to make it work. Find English movies that do not get translated for you and tell me if it says "NO" or "US" for you then. The same with foreign movies (Asian, Dutch, German, French, etc), with examples on localized/translated titles, as well as ones that show as-is for you. Then I would simply look for "US" at that location and use IMDb+ the way it works now, and if it shows anything else, such as "NO", to use the "(Original Title)" as English instead. PS: Scanned about 100 movies myself just now, and even on non-English titles, such as [url]http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0450188/[/url] it still shows "US" for me, so that gives me hope this might actually work. You just need to confirm it on as many movies as possible, because I do not want to be wasting time going down this path again (thought for sure I tried something on this before). [/QUOTE]
