TMDB new movies - smush420 - 2009-11-14
I recently added my first movie to themoviedb.org, in hopes that it would scrape in XBMC. However it never finds the movie. I was curious if it took a certain amount of time for new movies to be scrapped. The movie is Paper Heart. When I search Paper Heart nothing comes up, but if I search "Paper" everything corresponds with the website except for the one I added. Thanks and sorry if this post is in the wrong section, wasn't sure if should be here or in general.

I hear it can take up to 4 days.

The serach on TMDB kind of sucks right now, and you're generally presented with a bunch of 'popular' matches ahead of the 'closest' match. If you click on the 'movies' tab at top of the results page, you should see your own handywork (http://www.themoviedb.org/movie/25183 I presume).
It can take about 4 days to make it through to the API, so don't despair just yet.

OK thanks for the info. Anyone know why it takes so long to go through to the api?
