You have to edit all the movies belonging to that particular set, select -None- in Set properties and save. That set name will then disappear from your list.

Here's an example:
Blood from the Mummy's Tomb (1971) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0068290/combined

I only get Aubrey Morris listed under actors. I see at IMDB he is the only one with a photo. It looks like the other movies I was having trouble with are also only scraping the actors with photos.

Right. I see what you mean.

Is there another movie also so I can compare results as I test?

Will investigate and let you know.

OK, just checked and there is one glitch with durationinseconds currently actually storing as minutes, but I haven't come across -1 in this field.

Found -1 stored in <durationinseconds> if mediainfo could not get this detail from the video file.

If you Rescrape specific -> Media Tags, and durationinseconds is still -1, please post output of mediainfo. Link.

Only scrapes 3 of the actors.

La passion Béatrice (1987) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0093709/combined

Did that in 3.568b and it seems to work so I did a multi-save on my whole folder tree and now I have valid entries. I did note a slight difference from mediainfo, eg media info report 2h 8min while 3.568 shows 7732 secs but I suspect Media info is just rounding down to mins.

It was possible to do this in the Alternative editor, r-click movie, select Edit (alternative), but for some reason this is not active.

Are you having the same issue, some actors are not downloaded for some movies? This is fixed and will be available in the next release.
