Content rating / Certification / mpaa Issue
#1
Hello,
I am using tmm (latest version 2.6.9) to import all my movies and also to create a xmbc movie.nfo.
Unfortunately I believe that the <certification> and <mpaa> filelds are wrong.

For scraper I am using IMDB with Plot/Title/Tagline from TMBD.
Preferred language is german, for content rating I am using Germany.

When creating the movie.nfo I will have i.e.:
<mpaa>DE:FSK 16 / DE:FSK16 / DE:16 / DE:ab 16</mpaa>
<certification>DE:FSK 16 / DE:FSK16 / DE:16 / DE:ab 16</certification>

When checking http://akas.imdb.com/title/tt1790864/par...tification, I see that certification has to be i.e.: Germany:12
This means that in my view the syntax in the *.nfo is not correct.

Unfortunately I am not using kodi, I am using Plex with an agent to import the *.nfo. Plex is expecting "Germany:12, Germany:16, .." as the first entry in <mpaa> or <certification>

Is there any chance to config tmm in this way ?

Any help is appreciated.

You are right, the certification is not 1:1 what you expect / we scrape.

Problem here is:
- the certification names are (sadly) not specified in any way
- each Kodi SKIN uses different names to search for them
- IIRC the certification tag was dropped completely somewhen (only using mpaa - which will be also not correct for non-mpaa settings), so we have to rely on the skins implementing it

So what we are currently doing, is, to write a single certification in all known variants.
Whilst this is not perfect, it works for most of the skins, displaying a nice picture. (they mostly all use contains(name) - which fits this case)
(ok, Germany:12 syle seems to be missing - will add)

Have currently no idea, how to improve that.
And i don't like to have this configureable per setting (as the're so many variants)

If you have an idea, how to solve that for all, feel free to share Smile

Thanks for your answer, it explains the issue.

However, i am fine using only <mpaa>, <certification> is not really necessary. I am also fine to have <mpaa>Germany:FSK 16 / Germany: FSK16 / .... </mpaa>.

Means, the "only" feature I need is an option to replace DE with Germany. For some other countries i.e. AT, AU this could be also an option.

Why not add in config.xml a
<mpaa-nfo-replace>
<country>DE,Germany</country>
<country>AT,Austria<:country>
</mpaa-nfo-replace>
which allows to replace the country code when the *.nfo is created.

This option has not to be visible in the GUI, a manually change directly in the config.xml should be enough.


BTW: tmm is a really great ! I am using it since 2 days - it was a recommendation by a friend.
