    Ok, all added (keep an eye out for v1.4.8 update via IMDb+ Info):

    <rename id="tt0109836" title="Frankenstein (Remake)" />
    <rename id="tt0049366" title="Invasion of the Body Snatchers (Original)" />
    <rename id="tt0217579" title="Jason and the Argonauts (TV)" />
    <rename id="tt0053085" title="The Mummy (TV)" />
    <rename id="tt0056347" title="The Phantom of the Opera (Musical)" />
    <rename id="tt0098090" title="The Phantom of the Opera (Classic)" />
    <rename id="tt0086101" title="The Phantom of the Opera (Remake)" />
    <rename id="tt0100361" title="The Phantom of the Opera (TV)" />
    <rename id="tt0220699" title="The Phantom of the Opera (Live)" />
    <rename id="tt0829262" title="The Phantom of the Opera (Cartoon)" />


    The Boris classic of Frankenstein is higher rated, so instead of renaming that to "(original)" I went for the remake. If your personal preference is otherwise, then add both to your custom one. The others only needed a single entry and I found a few more for the Phantom.

    The IMDb+ workaround fix for artwork only works when movies are freshly imported, so you do have to sent all related movies (even the ones ommited that share the same title) back to the importer and then IMDb+ will sort it out :)

    If you got any more questions, do not hessitate to ask.

    I disagree that The Mummy should be designated as (TV)... it was a (Remake) by Hammer Horror Films of the Universal Studios production. Most collectors of classic horror films will understand the (Hammer) and (Universal) notations. But (Remake) would probably be more appropriate.

    Done, except I used (UK) and (India) to stay in line with other entries.

    Just to reclarify, inside IMDb+ plugin options (inside MediaPortal GUI, not config) you can pop up the hidden menu and use "IMDb+ Info..." to find out the version of your current rename database version. By default it updates once every 24 hours, but you can adjust this via settings.

    v1.5.1 is what you want for the Pusher series.

    I have recently installed MediaPortal 1.37 (x64) and MP-TVSeries v4.5.1.697 and unfortunately the TV episode runtime duration is missing in my Titan skin. This only applies to my .TS files, my .MKV files are OK. I believe the difference is likely to be because .MKV files embed the runtime in the file unlike .TS files. I have done...

    Ok, so perhaps a solution, but not the "right" solution. On the client, within media portal configuration, under TV settings, advanced options, I switched to UNC paths instead of the default RSS, and it's working very well. Sure I had to figure out the paths, but no big deal. Maybe helpful for someone in the future. Thanks for the...
