Just tested your movie. Copied and pasted your folder and filename. Worked fine for me.
In case you don't know, but I am sure you do, use the Refresh button in the Movie Information page and a list of matching titles will be displayed where you can pick the correct movie.
If that fails, use a parsing nfo file... http://kodi.wiki/view/Nfo#Parsing_nfo
Sure, I know about the refresh button, but I rather know what's going on and not have this happen again.
RE: [Release] Universal Movie Scraper - Karellen - 2018-01-07
I can't replicate. Maybe we can pick something up in a debug log (wiki)

RE: [Release] Universal Movie Scraper - olympia - 2018-01-08
Not sure why Karellen cannot reproduce the issue.
It seems to be quite obvious to me; well, that's because Kodi figures "Snowmance" is a closer match for the search string "Snowman, The" than "The Snowman" (which is quite right) and picks that from the search results.
Other than congratulating for this folder/ file naming practice, I can only suggest one way to workaround this (assuming your heart is stick to this), which is to create an .nfo file in the folder, matching the name of the movie file and paste the IMDb URL of "The Snowman" into it. This will force Kodi to scrape the referenced movie.

I would expect the scraper to detect the pattern of 'title, the' and make it into 'the title' before submitting it to whatever search engine if that search engine is known to be sensitive for the order.
Edit: I've put myself over it.
Will rename all the folders, files to "the title".

@olympia,
Here is my debug log from the scrape... https://paste.ubuntu.com/26343369/ Starts at line 1624
@tripkip
I also use that little trick of putting the Article after the name- Hitmans Bodyguard The.
---Edit---
Sorry just realised I was using the TMDB scraper, not Universal Movie Scraper. Keep swapping add-ons and sources on my test machine, I forget to check what I had setup last.
RE: [Release] Universal Movie Scraper - Karellen - 2018-01-08
Yep, flicking over to Universal Movie Scraper and using IMDB scraped Snowmance
RE: [Release] Universal Movie Scraper - tripkip - 2018-01-08
This is what I came up with, works great:
rename -n 's/(.+), The (\(\d{4}\))/The $1 $2/' *I see that some of my files are not being picked up because they don't exist in IMDB, but they do in TMDB.
So in the Universal Movie Scraper I switched from IMDB to TMDB as my search engine. After this I refresh the particular movie, but it's not making a difference.
Isn't the 'refresh' picking up the latest setting on the info scraper confiugration?
RE: [Release] Universal Movie Scraper - olympia - 2018-01-08
nice one
Refresh should definitely take the actual scraper configuration into account. Have you amended that settings on the source or in addons manager. You should do this on the given source (or can be done even on folder level within a given source).

I have accounts on both and would love to create a corresponding entry on themoviedb without doing 1/2 hour of editing.
Plan A - Would love quick dirty import movie record from imdb to themoviedb. I like themoviedb > imdb.
Plan B - .nfo file with imdb movie url? manually refresh
Plan C - switch scrapers in universal scraper at video source. Then go back into files/movies and find movies that are on imdb and not themoviedb and scan to library.
Would love to know best practices from the experts out there.
Was hoping the universal scraper would have a fallback scraper service - if not on themoviedb, check imdb.
RE: [Release] Universal Movie Scraper - boheme - 2018-01-12
Hello, I have an issue with Universal Movie Scrapper. Cast Actors thumbnails are missing when scan my collection. Download actor thumbnails is switched on in Media Settings -Videos.
I tried a fresh install with no luck. I have tried everything, no issue with TMDB. Please help!
RE: [Release] Universal Movie Scraper - steve1977 - 2018-01-13
First of all, thanks for the development.
I am having issues with around a dozen movies. Everything else works well. The non-working movies are not being scraped, but instead show in Kodi as an empty blank line without any movie name and with no poster.
I tried to add them manually (information->reload), but this appears not to be working as the movie is not being identified. Even manually entering exactly the same movie name as in TMDB does not sort out the issue. This should be easy to replicate as you can take any random movie and try to manually search for it.
One non-working movie for trouble-shooting would be: The Lobster (2015) - https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/254320-the-lobster
I am using Universal Movie Scraper addon 4.0.2 on LE (Kodi 17.1).
Thanks for looking into this.
RE: [Release] Universal Movie Scraper - Karellen - 2018-01-13
Hi steve1977
Can we have the log please. Capture a Library Update. Also confirm you have IMDB as your settings in UMS
RE: [Release] Universal Movie Scraper - steve1977 - 2018-01-13
Thanks. Not having IMDB, but TMDB, which I'd like to keep as all my folder names are 100% based on the TMDB title. I have some issues creating log files, but it is very easy to replicate by just manually adding "The Lobster" when manual scraping for any movie. "The Lobster" does not show up in the list, but a bunch of other movies instead.

I went ahead and tested, assuming you were using IMDB settings, and it scraped ok. I'll try again with TMDB in the settings.
Why do you have problems with logs? You should be able to do it with your eyes closed
If I can scrape it ok, then you will need to provide one.
