[QUOTE="Kotik, post: 1129292, member: 89825"] Ok if you love puzzles then how would we explain the fact that when i open the imdb [URL='http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118884/']link[/URL] it gives me the English name? Cause i am confused right now. I double checked it, it will use the English name for the link so somehow only IMDB+ is parsing the Greek one. Edit 1: Did some more testing, with IMDB+ scraper as a match result i get Contact 1992, BUT with the default IMDB scraper i get Contact 1997 as the match, which is the right result. So how is the imdb scraper able to get the right one? So i cannot actually post you html files since i cannot get the page to open in Greek language. Now that i double checked it my windows regional settings are all set to English (United States) so the only way for imdb page to detect my location would be my ip address. Even then how is imdb default scraper able to get the Enlish name? Edit 2: IMDB+ scraper has way more non perfect matches when it is parsing the data and something important to notice, it doesnt have the English title nowhere in the list, so if you want to get the english title you have to scroll down the list, find the localised name of the movie, select it and import it and then it will actually use the English title. The default IMDB scraper comes up with around 5 results, one of them is the right Enlish title and it picks that one correctly. Something important to notice here is that the default IMDB scraper never actually lists any localised movie name, so in my example it never comes up with "Επαφή" in its results list. Hope that makes any sense. PS. Can get you teamviewer access to my pc so you can perform the tests that you require over a Greek ip. [/QUOTE]
