You activated it in your video source and not the addon settings right. I only ask because many people don't realize that changing the addon settings just changes the defaults for future sources added.

Can you show the country / countries of production in the movie information window?

I am using a program called Ember Media Manager to download all my info, however I am having problems with my movie sets with the new Gothem and Aeon Nox skin. Aeon Nox guys claim that it is NOT a skin issue but a plug in issue. I was wondering if your plugin would resolve my issue with the Sets Problem?

I am also wondering if it is possible to use the clearlogo etc downloaded with Ember Media Manager but use your scraper to get the movie into sets?

Which Aeon Nox skin are you using? I know Bignoid wrote a special movie sets plugin for his AN5 skin- https://github.com/BigNoid/plugin.moviesets.

RE: [Release] Universal Movie Scraper - queef - 2014-09-12

hey!

this scraper works fine so far. but i have a couple of films that are definitely listet on IMDB, and of course i have named the folder exactly like the movie title, but the scraper does not find it. even if i try it manually by typing the movie title in different ways, there are approx. 200 results, but the right one is not listed...

can anybody help me with that problem?


RE: [Release] Universal Movie Scraper - nickr - 2014-09-12

No we can't help you.

Why can't we?

Because you have given no detail and no debug log (wiki)

Detail needed is movie name and the full path and filename from the video source.

try looking for the movies on the moviedb.com using the filenames. I've occasionally found that movies couldn't be found due to the incorrect year being used in the filename or a slight difference in the movie title. Once you've found the movie - rename the file as appropriate & then update library again.


RE: [Release] Universal Movie Scraper - nickr - 2014-09-12

I expected after reading his post that he was using the imdb scraper.

You bring up a good point though. The years are often different between IMDB and themoviedb. One uses the first general cinema release year, the other uses the first ever cinema release, even if it is the twobitvillageinhicksville film festival :-)


RE: [Release] Universal Movie Scraper - craigey1 - 2014-09-12

I used to make the mistake of searching for a film on IMDB without realising that Kodi was searching against themoviedb. Took me a few tries to realise that there were some subtle differences. Even slight variations of the title will mean one wont find return any matches where the other will.

You are right though - logs would help!

why woud i post here, if i had imdb scaper? Wink


RE: [Release] Universal Movie Scraper - queef - 2014-09-13

sorry i can't post a log at the moment, cause i'm not at home.

but if it helps anyway:

the movie title is called "zwei bärenstarke typen (1983)"
=> bud spencer & terence hill movie =)

so obviously its the german title... (which is definitly listed on IMDB and named the exact same way in my folder)
i named all the folders like MOVIETITLE_YEAR, and i works for almost every other german title

english title would be "go for it" (listed on themoviedb.org)

One way to correct this would be to use an NFO file (wiki). Here are a few examples. The file only needs to contain the IMDB url for the movie in question. Will act as a pointer to point Kodi to the correct movie.


RE: [Release] Universal Movie Scraper - mortstar - 2014-10-05

It seems that RottenTomatoes isn't returning the correct rating (at least for TomatoMeter/All), nor the Critics' Consenus. Every movie gets a score of 1.0, they've recently updated their site layout so I'm guessing that is connected. Here's a log refreshing a movie's info http://xbmclogs.com/show.php?id=310648

EDIT:

ParseRTTomAll RegExp needs changing to: &quot;all-critics-meter&quot;.*?([0-9]+).*?Reviews Counted:.*?([0-9]+)
ParseRTTomTop RegExp needs changing to: &quot;top-critics-meter&quot;.*?([0-9]+).*?Critic Reviews: ([0-9]+) (plus above RegExp in first function)
ParseRTOutline RegExp needs changing to: Critics Consensus:&lt;/span&gt; ([^&lt;]+)&lt;/p&gt;

ParseRTAveAll and ParseRTAveTop are fine.

This is extremely quick research, tested against only two movies not on boundary conditions, caveat emptor!

I have noticed the same problem with recently added movies and I didn't realize until reading this post that it was due to the Rotten Tomatoes site update. Does anyone know of a temporary fix until the scraper can be updated?
