I have been using moving pictures happily for a while now and love how this plugin evolved and all the hard work put into it!
I was wondering though if an option could be integrated to "trim" the quotes of the beginning and end of movies. This is probably due to the sources (like imdb) which have the quotes in the title field.

Would save me doing it manually, would really appreciate it!

:D

    That can be done at scraper level, do you have any examples?

    I've noticed that it's the title of TV shows that have the quotes around them. The title of films do not. Personally I only use Moving Pictures for films so if I see quotes around the titles it's an indication that IMDB has picked up a TV show, not a film title. Obviously this can happen when a TV show is turned into a film (Sex and the City) or vice versa (Ghost Busters). So instead of stripping the quotes I would rather Moving Pictures had a setting to ignore titles with quotes around entirely.
