Trying to scrape "The German Lesson (2019)", TMDB scraper search for "The" ignoring the rest of the title.

If you put original title: "Deutschstunde (2019)", scraper can find it.
I've tried to scrap for other movies starting with "The" with no problem.

Forgot to say.
This is happening in two different kodi installations with the very same symptom.

The word "German" has been cleaned from the filename according to this regex... https://kodi.wiki/view/Advancedsettings....eanstrings

You can edit the regex and remove the word German, or just use a Parsing NFO file to scrape the movie.
