Swedish/Foreign titles still used when IMDb+ is configured to use English ones (1 Viewer)

[RoChess]

No problem, I was too busy with work before anyway and finally am getting a little bit of free time again to figure out this problem.

Ok we will wait for a solution

I have the same problem. It may be an error with the imdb page:
https://getsatisfaction.com/imdb/topics/impossible_to_change_title_display_language_country

It seems it happens when the country setting is "United States". I tried this on my account and it shows up wrong browsing at imdb.com too. If I change country to "Original" it shows up as I want it to.

Is there any way for me to fix this manually? I tried that registry fix but it didn't work.

Darnit, I finally had some time to go over all the technical docs that @HomeY provided from a Dutch users IP with English titles enabled.

The problem is that from his log file, it appears to all be working fine. It gets "Black Book (Zwartboek)" as title, which is "English title (Dutch title)" the way it is supposed to be. Granted he has a custom rename title entry to change that back to "Zwartboek", but it still works.

So IMDb is not making it easy for me, so will need somebody who still experiences the issue to provide me the following:

HTML source from (obviously pick a tt1234567 that is a movie that actually fails for you, showing non-English title when it should be English):

1. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1234567/
2. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1234567/parentalguide
3. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1234567/releaseinfo
4. http://akas.imdb.com/title/tt1234567/
5. http://akas.imdb.com/title/tt1234567/parentalguide
6. http://akas.imdb.com/title/tt1234567/releaseinfo

7. Scraper-debug enabled movingpictures.log file when you import said movie as "English name of movie (year).avi" -- instructions @ http://code.google.com/p/imdbplus/wiki/WikiInstallScraper

Once somebody can provide me all that, then I can figure out a solution, because all I have now is log files that tell me everything is working

I've attached all source files and the log file for one of the movies I have issues with, which is 'Platoon'. In Swedish it's called 'Plutonen'.
FYI First it auto accepts the wrong one when importing so I picked the correct one in the dropdown list.

1. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0091763/
2. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0091763/parentalguide

That is the thing, it picked the *right* one. Search node does not contain the IMDb+ magic to correct the wrong IMDb title. So you overruled the right selection with a wrong one.

If you pay attention you will see it have a green circle on "Plutonen (1986)" (might even have a "as Platoon" in there) and then once the white checkmark hits, IMDb+ will correct this to "Platoon (1986)"

So try again please, the other HTML source files are good, but get me a new movingpictures.log file the way you did without adjusting what it finds

 

[jake78]

No it doesn't accept the correct one. It's actually a videogame that it selects. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2263622/
Once the white checkmark appears it doesn't correct anything. It still says 'Platoon (1987)'. I've seen what you're talking about on other movies.
I've attached a log where I didn't change anything.

I'm so freaking confused right now.

18-Feb-2013 17:37:42 Debug [ MovieSignature]: MATCHING: 'platoon' WITH: 'Plutonen' RESULT: TitleScore=0, YearScore=0, ImdbMatch=False, AlternateTitleUsed=True, AlternateTitle='Platoon', AutoApprove=True
18-Feb-2013 17:37:42 Debug [ MovieSignature]: MATCHING: 'platoon' WITH: 'Platoon' RESULT: TitleScore=0, YearScore=1, ImdbMatch=False, AlternateTitleUsed=False, AlternateTitle='', AutoApprove=True
This is all MovPic doing, and it is auto-approving TWO movies (wtf?) The first one *is* the right one.

The very final action taken place by MovPic is indeed:

18-Feb-2013 17:37:42 Info [ MovieImporter]: Auto-approved Platoon 1986 H264 Special Edition DVDRip.mkv as "Platoon" (1987)

Which means it uses the 2nd movie, when it gets a better score on 1st one (year=0 which is better, with the only difference that the match is on AKA and not primary title).

Make me a screenshot of your MovPic importer settings, you either adjusted the Levenshtein distance, or the year distance is messing up MovPic. This is weird though, a bug like this should have surfaced years ago in all the testing I've done (even before IMDb+).

Did you adjust any advanced settings, such as auto-approve from non-primary scraper-scripts?

 

[RoChess]

@jake78, I've released v4.5.6, let me know if that fixes it for you.

 

[jake78]

It picked the correct movie this time but it's still in Swedish. I've attached a new log.
Do you still want the screenshot? The only setting I've changed in the importer section is the 'Always group files in the same folder'.
