[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 763180, member: 18896"] [b]Re: AW: IMDb+ Scraper (Force English title, Auto-Rename titles to group, and more) v3[/b] Did you edit those options *BEFORE* you imported the scraper? MovingPictures 'copies' the XML file into its database, so any changes made to the XML file after import are not used. This is simple to solve, adjust the version point part into "61" for v3.1.6 and adjust the date to be 1 day newer. This will allow you to reimport the scraper with any changes made, or you can switch to scraper debug mode, but the adjustment is easier. Using v3.1.61 is also an easy reminder that you are using custom options, incase there is an update to the scraper, because until MovingPictures gets enhanced to support scraper options, you have to unfortunatly keep re-adjusting the default settings. The special editions part only works if the IMDb tt-ID part is available during the search-node part of the scraper, meaning you have to make it part of the filename, or use simple NFO system. Example: I Am Legend (Alternate Ending) (tt0480249) [2007].avi Will be imported as "I Am Legend (Alternate Ending)" It works for: [INDENT][LIST] [*]3D [*]3D Edition [*]Extended [*]Extended Edition [*]Unrated [*]Unrated Edition [*]Director's Cut [*]Director's Cut Edition [*]Alternate Ending [*]Alternate Ending Edition[/LIST][/INDENT] The above text has to be enclosed in '(..)', '{..}', or '[..]' as well. It's a little convoluted, but it was the only way to make it work for me, as I didn't like having to open MovPic config each time. The rename system doesn't require the IMDb tt-ID before hand (though it doesn't hurt to use it as it guarantees correct auto-approval), as it is based on the IMDb tt-ID obtained after a movie has been found. That is why you see the IMDb tt-ID inside the rename XML database file along with the new title. The special editions are done after this and appended to any title used, so it works together. Special Editions = New import or Sent back to importer, as the filename is important, so search-node has to be done. Rename titles = New import or Refresh, so you can edit the XML file for an existing movie that you want to group or rename and refresh from within GUI. Be aware that there is an existing issue for MovPic and that is that the title rename is instant, but the new sort order requires you to close MovPic and re-open it. This also goes for the config screen, but is only needed for when you rename an existing movie. New movies will be sorted correctly from the start. Yes, but you would have to modify this scraper then. This will be a lot of work, because there is a lot of code all designed for the 'English' title detection and this would have to be all rewritten into German then. As for the rename system and special editions, those can almost be copied and pasted into the German scrapers you are using now, but it's still work and I'm not going to take up that task. :sorry: [/QUOTE]
