IMDB Problem (1 Viewer)

[MediaPortal Version: RC 1.0
MediaPortal Skin: Monochrome 1.9
Windows Version: Windows Xp Professional SP3
Memory: 2 GB DDR2 800 SDRAM
Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce 8500 GT (256 MB)


I just updated to RC 1.0 a few days ago.

I've noticed that the IMDB importer seems to be missing or not finding plot and summary information for over half the movies I have. I can manually go to IMDB and there it is, all the info that the importer is not "finding" ?

I have NO other internet activity going on and I have a 1.5 mbit connection.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Gary

same, found if you put movie name as "King Kong (2005)" as the filename, everything goes through smoothly (add year to your files).

The one exception is "LOTR The Fellowship of the Ring (2001)", consistantly come back as "Lord of the Dice" where the hell does that come from, especially when you manually input the name, amazingly the right movie turns up first time everytime, this is from way back when.

Last king of scotland

if you put (2006) it will get correct film, i know as this is one of my movie files, did a scan yesterday on my new xp install.

Will try

Yes, I noticed that possibly adding the date after would help, but the main thing is the importer missing the plot or summary information.

So I will try this suggestion and see if it solves the problem.

Thanks very much.
