DVDpedia: Amazon downloader doesn't ignore (II)

Post by jenv »

If I have a cast member named Polly Adams (from United 93, in case you want to test it) in my credits, and I do a Get Advanced Info from Amazon, DVDpedia will download an entry for "Polly Adams (II)". These are obviously the same person. DVDpedia should have an option to ignore the trailing "(II)" when matching names.

Thank you for the information. I tried it out and I see the issue. Polly Adams is a special case, if it happens with any other actor let us know so that we can see if there is a possible general fix.

Make sure you already have a Credit for Emma Watson. Then do a Get Advanced Info/Amazon US. Note the new duplicate entry for "Emma Watson (II)". I dunno, maybe Amazon is just screwed up, since not all HP movies are like this. I submitted a request at Amazon to change the name.
