[QUOTE="fforde, post: 942063, member: 52082"] Just to clarify, IMDb+ does some custom title changes that prevent incorrect backdrops for movies that share a name with other films like The Day the Earth Stood Still (an old backdrop for the new film and/or vice versa). IMDb+ does not add support for multiple backdrops for the same movie, these are two separate issues. For anyone reading the thread, if you want multiple backdrops per movie you'll just have to wait. Sorry. It's on the list of things to do but I only have so much time. If you have an incorrect backdrop loaded (be it for a similarly titled movie or not), you can always manually set a backdrop in the Movie Manager. Moving Pictures was designed under the assumption that sometimes mistakes will be made. The Movie Manager is the built in work around where you can clean up any quirks in the data that was automatically pulled and this include incorrect backdrops. If you find yourself with a lot of movies like this IMDb+ is probably the best solution right now but if it's only a few I think it would be easier to just manually adjust the data. But to each their own. Hi ThePony. We actually have two types of NFO logic. The basic logic is always on by default and it mostly just scans NFO files for an IMDb ID. If you actually want to use your MyMovies data as an import source you will need to prioritize the MyMovies script. Sorry this is a bit of an advanced process, but try this: [LIST=1] [*]Open config panel and go to the Importer Settings tab. [*]If it's not selected, check "Manually Manage Data Sources". [*]Click "Movie Details Data Sources". [*]In the list find mymovies.xml, select it, then move it to the top of the list with the arrow on the toolbar. [*]Click Ok and restart the importer (or just exit and reenter the config). [/LIST] If you still have trouble create a new thread with your debug log files and I will take a closer look. [/QUOTE]
