    It also used 2 instead of II

    It is starting to sound more that the movie got imported with a non-IMDb+ scraper-script. Open MovPic config, locate "[Rec] 2" and check to see what the primary scaper-script source was. If that is indeed IMDb+ then go to the manual manage scraper-script sources option inside the importer tab, and verify what version of IMDb+ is in use (u can also reposition it there to primary/top/first position if it is not).

    When MovPic updates, and it contains an updated "imdb (default)" scraper-script, it messes everything up and pushes IMDb+ to the side. I allow an easy way to correct that by opening IMDb+ plugin inside MediaPortal GUI and then you can use the hidden menu option "Force IMDb+..." to correct this for movies already imported wrong (and then refresh the details to reflect any special IMDb+ features done to title/score/etc).

    I've asked MovPic project owner to reconsider this behaviour, but because it only impacts IMDb+, there was no positive response to the suggestion. I can create an issue for it at MovPic Google Code project site, but would need like 100+ "stars" for it to be taken into consideration and not sure enough IMDb+ users are signed up with Google code to do so.

    Well it shows [Rec] II [Rec] - so not sure if I made a mistake or something changed.

    If you want to add it to google code, just do so then post in your main thread asking people to star the issue. you only need 15 stars to be in the top 20 issues, 30 stars for top 10 issues.

    <rename id="tt0112471" title="Before Sunrise" sortby="Before Sunrise 1" />
    <rename id="tt0381681" title="Before Sunset" sortby="Before Sunrise 2" />
    <rename id="tt2209418" title="Before Midnight" sortby="Before Sunrise 3" />

    Alternatively

    Before I: Sunrise
    Before II: Sunset
    Before III: Midnight

    That's one of the things on my ToDo list, allow a way to see what movies from the default rename database you are missing. All these ideas and no time to work on them :confused:

    I meant that it looked like they weren't in the rename database, but I think there was some lag or something because later on they appeared as renamed.[DOUBLEPOST=1371507926][/DOUBLEPOST]EDIT: But yes that would be a good idea, just scan moving pictures database and grab all the ID#s then compare them with the rename list, and process any movies that are a match. This behavour could be launched 2 ways, 1. the left hand menu , 2. a popup when you select the group series option asking if you want this done now...

    Thanks very much, Jasmeet. Worked. But note that this setting has moved, apparently, to: Settings > TV (not Plugins)

    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...
