[QUOTE="Dadeo, post: 1063725, member: 27204"] Thanks for the feedback bwg - it's really great to know it is working well for you in a real world/production environment. Re Original Title - it's not just EMM ;) The problem is that many apps don't use Translated Titles or AKAs (it's not defined in XBMC NFO standard :rolleyes:), thus <title> could be a localized title or the original title. Sometimes <title> and <originaltitle> are the same, sometimes <originaltitle> is only written if different.... MF NFO grabber (or author ;)) has no way to know wtf is written where! Since MyFilms let's you select either Original Title or Translated Title (<title> in NFO is the closest) as your main (master) title, it means you MUST have data in the title field you select for every record. So that's why the NFO grabber User Options maps OriginalTitle to Translated Title if there isn't one already. Did you try removing that option to see if it helps? So I assume you use Translated Title as your main (master) title in MF config? If you use Original Title, and some EMM NFOs don't have one, those movies won't import right? But how do you know if the <title> is an alternate title/translation or the actual original title? [B]If you can attach an example or two of a problematic NFO where you get duplicate and/or incorrectly formatted titles. I can see what we might be able to do. [/B] Re Plot Outline - yeah AMC (thus MF) doesn't support that field, so your Desc/Comments workaround is a good solution for now. Re Tagline - yes it is nice to display it at start of Desc. We used to do that in MF before we had an extended field in AMC for tagline. In theory you could do that in Skin - but not easy to format it with a LF after ;) RE - multifanart - Crap! I missed that. I know EMM has an option ([B]Scrapers - Images & Trailers)[/B] to use either \extrafanart or \extrathumbs or both. I just didn't think about the use case where you select only \extrathumbs. DUH! You could probably change it and rename \extrathumbs to \extrafanart (so you don't have to download images again) - but your solution is easier. ;) In future I think we can add an options to grab from \extrathumbs and map it to multifanart field if it doesn't already have images from \extrafanart. Nice to know you have managed to use the Grabber Editor so well to customize the NFO grabber for your preferences/setup! (y) You may have seen in MF Issue Tracker I added a feature request: [URL='http://code.google.com/p/my-films/issues/detail?id=365']Issue 365: Certification logos by country[/URL] to extend the Logos manager so it displays the correct logos for your country. ;) Since MF already allows you to select the country you want to use for Certification, it only makes sense to extend that to logos imo. Not the point you were making I know - doesn't help if you can't grab Aussie Certs! [/QUOTE]
