[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 871938, member: 18896"] The issue was open for 1.5 years when I realized it was something I really wanted for my own collection. Not being able to help on the C# side to get this issue fixed into MovingPictures, I was making a lot of progress with my IMDb+ scraper-script at the same time (originally created to get Rottentomatoes ratings and fix the 'English' title problem for foreign movies) and a year later on April 4th 2011 came up with a way to at least group series by renaming their titles during import, i.e: "James Bond XXI: Casino Royale". It's far from ideal, because I'd love a single entry "[+] James Bond Series (23)" as well that can be expanded to show all the 22 official movies (and the 1 unofficial) from the series, with the new Skyfall soon added, but at least it is something. The developers of Moving-Pictures plugin are just busy with real-life and it is hard to juggle a large project like this in the limited free time available. So hopefully their schedule will clear up, or somebody with a lot of C# knowledge will step in and tackle this issue. It is open source afterall so anybody can help and supply patches that can then be merged into the next official release. Another four years from now I might have picked up enough C# to tackle the issue myself, but in the meantime I use my own IMDb+ to get by :) [/QUOTE]
