I've checked that the TV show itself has a IMDB ID in my database, however the episodes of season 3 don't have one. The add-on doesn't seem to be able to add that ID by itself - could you have a look?
The logfile shows lines like:
Code:
Light IMDb Ratings Update log file - 2020-03-08 13:42:25
--> Rating(s) update for movie/TV show/season/episode
Castlevania 3x06:
Method get_IMDb_ID_from_theTVDB: TVDB 7612667 (episode) -> missing IMDb ID
Method get_IMDb_ID_from_TMDb: Missing TMDB ID
I've checked the TVDB for this sample episode and it shows a link to IMDB which is correct.
Hi @
HeresJohnny, thanks for reporting this issue.
First of all, just want to have a confirmation on your side: do you use TheTVDB scraper in Kodi, right?
Besides of that, I took a look into it and it seems that the problem is on TheTVDB.com side. Indeed I have tried to update the ratings of episode 1 of season 1 and the one that you reported. My add-on uses TheTVDB APIs to access the episodes information, and these are the results related to such episodes:
S01E01:

As you can see, even if on the TheTVDB.com site episode page there is a correct link to the related IMDb page, the IMDb ID is not included in the response related to the request. I think you should bring this issue directly to the attention of TheTVDB.com guys.
Have a great day!
 I still appreciate your work on and will continue to use your IMDB addon. Thanks for creating it.
