    Hi hilfer,
    did you use the latest maintenance release 6.0.2? IMDB has changed their website, so updated grabbers are required.
    You can also get online update of the grabber scripts in setup, import tab, "Update grabber scripts" - that should hopefully fix your issue.

    Sorry but I didn't suceed.

    I went to AMC updater , selected the imdb-pt - same result - no movies names.

    I tried also the grabber config where I entered the url , but nothing changed.

    can you give me a more detailed information of how to do it ??

    tks.

    Hi hilfer,
    you didn't mention the IMDB.pt - that script isn't supported anymore, as there is no separate IMDB site for portugal available anymore.
    So yes, I can confirm, that that script doesn't work.
    Please use either IMDB.ES or IMDB / IMDB-Full script.
    I have created an issue in tracker to remove the script and change the presets. Which one do you think is the best for pt?

    IMDB-Full does a lot more scraping of sub pages, thus getting much more complete information - from that point, it is the best one, but it is pretty slow, due to the many additional page requests it does.
    I usually prefer the IMDB-Full to get best possble and most complete info.
    But it depends on your workflow - you could use the faster IMDB grabber for first time import - and once you've done your initial import and your DB contains the IMDB IDs, automatic matching update is possible with IMDB-Full grabber.
    Edit: Dadeo was faster and pointing to the correct place :)
