[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 991141, member: 18896"] The best way to go about it then is to open MovPic config, go to manually manage scraper-script inside the importer tab, select IMDb+ and use the drop down option on the [-] toolbar icon to 'delete' the scraper-script. Then IMDb+ plugin will properly re-install the current scraper-script when your launch MediaPortal GUI again. All scraper-scripts are stored inside the MovPic database within the 'scripts' table and all the old versions are kept. I've never been able to find a way to consistently cause it to faul on the problem you are experiencing, so figuring out a solution for this random annoyance is then almost impossible. Upon launch of IMDb+ plugin, it asks MovPic plugin "what is the latest version of IMDb+ scraper-script". It then compares that to a fresh download from IMDb+ SVN and if it differs it will install the latest SVN, or otherwise skip it. Sometimes MovPic just doesn't do it right, which causes your issue. It could relate to the fact that MovPic has another table that keeps track of what scraper-script was used to import a movie, as well as other references. Somewhere it goes wrong then, either IMDb+ is assigned a new 'id' internally and not linked proper anymore, or a movie was already imported with another scraper-script and then it will keep referring to that one. To get around that last one (which is the same as upgrading an existing setup), is to use the IMDb+ plugin hidden menu "Force IMDb+..." option. This will scan the MovPic database for any movie imported that contains an IMDb tt-ID reference. This includes "imdb (default)", but also the TMDb scraper-script. Their internal scraper-script IDs are then reset to point to IMDb+, after which you just have to 'refresh' the online details. Another option is to send the movie back to the importer of course, after you allowed IMDb+ to force itself to primary scraper-script position and use the current version of v4.9.12 (this can all be verified inside IMDb+ plugin as well via hidden menu option "IMDb+ Info". @[URL='https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/members/homey.68365/']HomeY[/URL], I know the wiki needs some serious updating, but it is already tough to find the time to work on IMDb+ scraper-script and IMDb+ plugin. I'd be happy to give you Google code project access to update the wiki if you feel interested. [/QUOTE]
