If it's iMDb api issue is there any other way to get that info for a bunch of movies?. I am rebuilding my library and i have about 400-500 movies and to update each one manually it's kinda hard!
Hi,
it's how we scrape movie details from IMDb. We scrape details from IMDb's website and the certificate is stored as '"contentRating": "PG-13",' without any further details. Even though you see more information (e.g. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0240772/?ref_=fn_al_tt_2 ) like "Rated PG-13 for some language and sexual content" we don't scrape that. That line isn't tagged in a way that makes it easy for us to scrape (it's only text that does not have any tags like "certificate: ").
I'm sorry but I don't plan on changing that anytime soon. :/
Regards,
Andre
