[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 971487, member: 18896"] Based on the getsatisfaction link you posted, it sounds like IMDb is fully aware that they broke the system. As fast as they have adjusted things (as IMDb+ broke each time), I'm on the side of optimism in thinking that it will not be long until they fixed it. That means I can then adjust IMDb+ to make it work for not just German again, but also Italian, French, Spanish and Portugese. Now moving databases across systems (from imdb.de to imdb.com) when geo-loadbalancing is in play (Amazon definatly uses a ton of datacenters to run IMDb) it does take a few days/weeks versus a few hours. They then also have to code the system to handle the foreign summary. Of course since such a system is already in place (and functional for title), I do not expect it to take long. This is why I want to give them till next weekend to see if they will fix it and provide German/etc summaries as well on the IMDb.com website. I found out a way for me to check via: [B][url]http://www.4proxy.de/[/url][/B] and then loading [B][url]http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0770703/[/url][/B] So I already see the 'German' title that you would see, and hopefully this week I'll spot the summary working, so I can get to work. If anybody spots it before I do, then please let me know. At the same time responding to that getsatisfaction link might put more pressure on IMDb to fix it ASAP, but that will only help when the requests come from actual German users. Maybe an idea for you to rile the troops :whistle: Now if IMDb still did not fix things, then I'll indeed look into adding OFDb. This will only fix it for German users, but it is the easiest one to implement as there is a known functional IMDb-ID -> OFDb-ID method in use by FilmInfo+, and I'm already using such an external system for Dutch, Icelandic, and Swedish language support.
