themoviedb.org (TMDb) - The Open Movie Database (wiki-based, register and contribute)

awesome I can't wait to get home and replace my movie scraper from IMDB to this one. nearly every movie I have added lately has not had any images downloaded or scraped it just took a shitty screen shot from some point in the movie to use.

it is now some month ago.
I like TMDb very much. But I am german, and if I scan my movies, XBMC does not recognize my german movies titel.

If I go directly to the homepage tmdb.org , the movie will be found.

Bye Sidekick

Ok you have to edit with notepad the file tmdb.xml in:
/home/xbmc/.xbmc/addons/metadata.themoviedb.org

You have to substitute the "en" expression to "de" expression or the language you want. For example "it" for italians or "fr" for franciais. See this page for other language: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639-1_codes
ATTENTION: if you do an automatic sostituition the file will be corrupped: there are others "en" expression to mantain.


BYE

Arrgggg with last xbmc revision themoviedvb is already included, so diasappared in the addons folder....

Could someone fix with a new themoviedb version that include a language selection like in thetvb ?

hello

having a question with this addon

example

i have a film which has in total 2 DVD
so i have the following structure

Film Foler
--> DVD 1
------> Audio_TS ; Video_TS
--> DVD 2
------> Audio_TS ; Video_TS

now when i lookup Film Informations this film is listed twice in my Database (one time for Folder DVD 1 and second time for folder DVD 2)

Is it possible to correct this so it is just displayed one time? And whyt if i want to play this movie. is it possible that it will correctly use DVD 1 first and then DVD 2?

Hi, I have a suggestion fon next themoviedb scraper 1.1.6. In 1.1.4 was added original name - alternative name support. Is incomplete: if I select alternative name, when scraper is saved it is only in original name. For example if there is a japan (original) name and you select english o international title the scraper is saved in japan. It's beller will be saved the selected name not the original (or at least the name, if there is, depending of your language).
Regards,

Pink

Whaaat? XBMC should save the title in your preferred language (certainly id available on tmdb). As always an example and a debug log would help a lot.

My browser is being screwy otherwise I'd post this on the moviedb forums. Anyway, I have a suggestion. Unless I'm missing something, this isn't currently a feature. I think it could be nice to be able to tag a category for the fanarts, allowing scrapers to differentiate between "posed" fanart and fanart that is pulled from scenes of the film. This way, people could choose to prefer the posed fanart for...well, fanart, and then use the screenshot fanart as extrathumbs that many skins now use. Does this make sense? Basically, it would just be nice to have a centralized location to find these sorts of extras, and it would also allow for the possibility of including extrathumbs as a builtin feature of xbmc.

All pictures are not being displayed on themoviedb.org (at the time of writing).
