Scrape with all alternate names and AKAs - Alexsource - 2020-02-13

I asked this before in the universal scrapper topic, but maybe this is a better place.

Is there a way to scrape a movie and to somehow store, as tags or whatever, all alternate nams and AKAs for it in the library, so that you search the movie using any of them?

Example: Snake Fist Dynamo ( https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0201142/releaseinfo?ref_=tt_dt_dt#akas ) ends up as Iron Head in the library, and If I search for "Snake", this entry will not appear in the results.

No, there is no way.

If you want to change the title of a movie displayed in the library, then highlight the movie, call up the Context Menu, select Manage the select Change Title.

Oh well, I guess I'll have to rename then by hand using Change title then. Thx for the answer!
