[QUOTE="morpheus_xx, post: 1164484, member: 48495"] If there are multiple results from an online query, then it is tried to find the best matching title by various steps: A single lookup is executed like this: [URL]https://github.com/MediaPortal/MediaPortal-2/blob/master/MediaPortal/Source/Extensions/MetadataExtractors/OnlineLibraries/TheMovieDB/TheMovieDbWrapper.cs#L127-L172[/URL] [LIST=1] [*]Try to find exact one entry, where the text is the "same" (exact or LevenshteinDistance) exactMatches = movies.FindAll(s => s.Title == moviesName || s.OriginalTitle == moviesName || GetLevenshteinDistance(s, moviesName) == 0); [*]If there are still multiple matches, a maybe given year is considered next: var yearFiltered = exactMatches.FindAll(s => s.ReleaseDate.HasValue && s.ReleaseDate.Value.Year == year); [*]As last, it's tried to find exact one title with LevenshteinDistance with maximum tolerance: movies = movies.Where(s => GetLevenshteinDistance(s, moviesName) <= MAX_LEVENSHTEIN_DIST).ToList(); [/LIST] Then there is additionally an outer processing which tries to split titles by "-" (which is quite common for translated titles, where the original one is followed by a localized title): [URL]https://github.com/MediaPortal/MediaPortal-2/blob/master/MediaPortal/Source/Extensions/MetadataExtractors/OnlineLibraries/TheMovieDB/TheMovieDbWrapper.cs#L82-L113[/URL] So the lookup algorithmn is quite complex already, but will still fail if there are more then 1 possible result after all tests. In your case I also think that only the file name is used here for lookup, the full name in the parent folder is not considered. The best way is to have a IMDBId available, either from; [LIST] [*]File name [*]Folder name [*]MatroskaTags [*].NFO file [/LIST] Then there is no texual lookup, but a IMDBid based one, which gives exact matching. So if you name your file: C:/video/Sweeney Todd The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (2007)/Sweeney Todd [B][tt0408236][/B].mkv it should be already enough for an unique match. Why the supplied .nfo was not considered in your last try, I don't know... [/QUOTE]
