Re: DVDpedia field selection.

Thank you for the bug report, I have updated the beta 10 to be able to handle parenthesis in an Amazon keyword search. We want to improve the international support to be able to gather the appropriate country ratings. Integrating all the other information would need a bigger overhaul; however, you ...

Re: DVDpedia field selection.

Yes, I agree. DVDpedia works very well if you are in the USA but the international aspects are not so sophisticated at the moment. The classification, for example, comes from the MPAA as you say, because DVDpedia searches the US version of IMDb. I'd naturally like the classifications from the BBFC ...

Re: DVDpedia field selection.

I find that quite often I have to request info from IMDb more than once. Sometimes, for example, I will update the user ratings for a movie by blanking the field and then doing a Get Advanced Info from IMDb. On occasion I have to repeat the 'get info' once or twice before it completes the field. Th...

Re: DVDpedia field selection.

Ok well that makes sense. Thanks Conor for the explanation :) I guess the timeout issue would be down to imdb, My connection is rarely busy (though I was running a handbrake encode while doing the original 8mm test so my cpu was maxed out). IIRC xbmc/plex had similar imdb issues a while back and had...

Re: DVDpedia field selection.

This is definitely a bug and it's making DVDPedia unusable for me. Conor? Nora? anyone able to offer some help? Searching for movies from the different sources is a pretty important part of what DVDPedia does and in it's current state it's hopeless. And theres no way I'm entering 2000+ movies by han...

Re: DVDpedia field selection.

That preference setting only refers to the initial search, the one performed via the search dialogue. Once you have the Add/Edit window open, use the little gear button in that window to do an advanced search. That way if there is more than one result returned the little drawer on the side will pop...

DVDpedia field selection.

OK I've been fighting with this for a while now and I can't figure it out. How do I choose which field is populated by which source? Basically I want the title to come from iMDB ('2001: A Space Odyssey' is correct, Amazons '2001 - A Space Odyssey' isn't). I want the artwork to come from Amazon (it t...
