Ability to choose an installed scraper on refresh button in video info screen - _BJ1 - 2023-12-28
Sometimes a scraper result is wrong or some infomation is missing on the default scraper. Other scrapers maybe do a more accurate job. Maybe it's an improvement to implement a context menu in video info dialog to choose an alternate scraper (if more then once installed) when refresh info is selected?

you can have multiple scrapers per movie titles just not the way you said
if you put your movies into subfolders
Movies
Movies/Point Break 2015
Movies/Point Break 2015/Point Break 2015.mp4
then the parent "Movies" can be set to TMDB while the subfolder "Point Break 2015" can be changed to something else via context -> "change content" in the files section

Yes. That's why it's a feature request. Your way is far too cumbersome, just to test whether an alternative scraper might deliver a better result without first rearranging the directory structure.

very good, i just tried to give you something you can use now but it seems you would rather wait years for a completed feature request so that by 2030 you can use it
