Here is my custom grabber. It´s based in the IMDB-Full, but:
- Picture, description and genre fields are imported in spanish from TMDB. I think I will take tagline also from there.
- Actors are separated by line breaks instead of commas

Thank you for solving my doubt and sharing your grabber with me. I am trying to understand the REGEX machine of My films. I will not find more available time for this matter until weekend. If I get stuck I will ask again. ¡Gracias!

It's not as difficult as I thought at first, especially if you know REGEX already (I had to learn from scratch )
Basically you use #REGEX# to invoke the Grabber Editor regex functions, which you can use in several 'parameters' in Grabber Editor, most often KeyStart/Stop 'boxes' on Details Page, RegExp box (which only exists for some parameters though Guzzi is working on extending that), and of course the 'Replace'/'With' boxes as in the case of #LF#.

All the 'special' MyFilms regex parameters are documented in wiki: Create a Grabber. I added z3us' screenshot/example of the use of #LF# (thanks @z3us) I found I learned the most by checking out existing grabbers, like IMDB-Full, IMDB-OMDB and NFO using the instructions to Test a Grabber in Wiki.

I´m having problems with line breaks in the actors field. In the grabber configuration they are correctly displayed. But im AMC, AMC updater, and MP GUI (streamedMP and default skins) is a single line. With Titan skin, nothing is showed.

Confirmed, please open an issue, will fix it for next release. Reson is, that the double white space trim (internal cleanup) matched linefeeds as whitechars too - see here solutionI will apply.

Here is my custom swedish grabber script. It is based on IMDB-Full with the following differences:

• Description is fetched from TMDB if avaliable.
• Collection is fetched from TMDB.

EDIT: Fixwd minor bug when there are " in the description from TMDB. See "Ondskan" for an example.

EDIT 2014-07-31: Fixed descriptions from TMDB containing parenthesis or quotes

EDIT 2014-08-17: Fixed categories (IMDB changed) and fixed titles with parenthesis in them

EDIT 2014-08-24: improved fix for titles with parenthesis in them

EDIT 2014-10-25: Updated version number, Categories and Writers according to latest IMDB-Full

EDIT 2016-02-17 Updated with Guzzis latest cover grabbing fix from IMDB-Full

I have a problem with actors with multiple roles in a movie. The prime example is "Monty Pythons meaning of Life", where e.g. the grab of Graham Chapman looks like this:

"Graham Chapman (Chairman /Fish #1 /Doctor /Harry Blackitt /Wymer /Hordern /General /Coles /Narrator #2 /Dr. Livingstone /Transvestite /Eric /Guest #1 /Arthur Jarrett /Geoffrey /Tony Bennett)"

This gives me new strange actors in MF like "#1, Fish" and "#2, Narrator".

Is this a known problem?

Just to be sure - this is the content of teh actors field, right?

And this is the display of the distinct actors in details screen, right?
Could be that for splitting actors and their roles settings are not properly used there - if they are (can't check right now), you might be able to tweak it by changing the list and role separators on views tab in setup - is there a '/' defined in your config?

 

[styrsven]

Removing '/' from List Separator and adding it to Role separator fixed it.
Thank you for your quick response!!
