IMDB plugin displaying wrong info

[ljgibbs]

I just got the mediainfo working. My problem is that on many of my movie and tv-series it gets the wrong info from IMDB. I corrected it on some by adding year to the movie title for example. Is there another way to provide PMS with the correct url to the movie/tv-series? i tried adding an NFO-file with the correct url in the same folder as the file, i also tried adding a .url shortcut to the folder, but it doesnt work.

Anyone have any tips about this?

Thanks!

There is thread regarding MovieInfo plugin so post it there and not here.
My last update logs "Search Links/Strings" in Debug.log so you can exactly see why your movie/TV series are not found. Also you should use correctly filters etc.
About .nfo file, it works as it should. If you will add correct link there it will load correct info. Search my lastest posts in that thread.

Ok Thanks ExSport.

I have seen various nfo-files, i just created an empty one and added the link to the movie there, http://link, but it doesnt read the file... Is the nfo-file supposed to be a certain way regarding to content, or is the link sufficient? Oh and btw, of course i named it "moviename.nfo" (without the quotes)

I mentioned new version so use it for more debugging
Anyway nfo filename has to be same as moviename so for:

Code: Select all

Transformers-BDrip-DTS.mkv

you have to name nfo file this way:

Code: Select all

Transformers-BDrip-DTS.nfo

Also if you are using Windows and files extensions are hidden(default) you have to be sure your filename is not

Code: Select all

Transformers-BDrip-DTS.nfo.txt

Structure of the file is not relevant, so pure http link to movie is enough.

Ok thanks. I cant seem to get movieinfo to read the nfo file i created..... Is there somewhere in the conf file for movieinfo i have to add that it shud also seacrh nfo files? the debug-log doesnt say anything bout nfo file, only the search string sent to google, and the result. Which in my testcase is "Good night and good luck", while the movie is "State of Grace"
