IMDB scraper failed on certain movies. (1 Viewer)

[publicENEMY]

i have disable all movie details data source except imdb data source. i have imdb uk 2.0.3, imbd 2.0.2, imdb with rotten tomato. i have problem scraping some of the movies. for example, Kung Fu Panda Secrets of the Furious Five cannot be found. links here. i even remove every search string and put imdb id only, but still, the scraper failed. Is there any fix?

the other movie that are problematic
super rhino
mater and the ghostlight

 

[publicENEMY]

Kung Fu Panda Secrets of the Furious Five imdb id is tt1287845
When i specifically enter the imdb id, the top search is Film 72 which have imdb id tt0192897.
How the hell did it gets this information?

 

[lanceuppercu]

i have a similar problem with animated movies or music concerts, i have created a nfo with the imdb link in there, doesnt auto approve for some reason! :/

to further test, i manually add imdb id tt1287845. the exact same log is reported.

anyway, this is the log when starting moving picture configurations

AW: IMDB scraper failed on certain movies.

Maybe I have the same problem,

Movingpicture(IMDB) can not find the movie.

Samples:

The Film: The Cunningham Heritage

The file name: Sherlock Holmes - The Case of the Cunningham Heritage (1954).avi

I have tried various attempts:

1. Sherlock Holmes The Case of the Cunningham Heritage | 1954 | tt0699412
2. Sherlock Holmes: The Case of the Cunningham Heritage | 1954 | tt0699412
3. The Case of the Cunningham Heritage | 1954 | tt0699412
4. ...... (nothing)| 1954 | tt0699412
5. ...... (nothing)|...... (nothing)| tt0699412
6. The Case of the Cunningham Heritage |1954|...... (nothing)|
etc.

All attempts brought no results.
What I must do, that movingpicture can find the right data.
I have a lot of old movies that have the same problem.
Has somebody a solution or a hint for me.

[RBwaBD]

it's the same issue as what i reported in another thread. all the TV/Video releases marked as such on IMBD don't get imported anymore. must be a scraper issue...

 

[CandyAndy]

AW: IMDB scraper failed on certain movies.

I think so too.

I pushed the movies in my folder of series, is a TV series anyway.

By the next problem, i keep an eye on, if this a tv production.

Hi,

Same here. I have the DVD of Cream's Farewell Concert.

The path name on my computer is

E:\Video\Music\Cream's Farewell Concert\tt0157490.mkv

so this is the correct IMDB ID. It used to be able to find this, and in fact with an older database on my main HTPC it still shows up correctly. However, with recent versions I cannot get the scraper to find it.

Best wishes,

Mark

 

[elliottmc]

Bump.

Is this a known issue, and is there anything I can do to help get it fixed?

Mark
