Does it possible to automatically write "France:" instead of "Rated" in the MPAA rating when the FR language is used ?

Change the "Certification Prefix" in settings... https://kodi.wiki/view/Add-on:The_Movie_...on#General

Yes, but manually. Why not use a prewriten prefix ? The user dont know what prefix to use.
I asked to change it on Aeon Silvo. here https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid...pid3214582
You can see that it's complicated to how to use a good prefix
FR-10
France:10
France:-10
TMDB return only the number "10". So I added France: in the code and it works fine.
It can be good to use always the same prefix in all skins. Its for this reason, it can be good to automaticaly write the prefix after select the language.

For some Days now, my Setting to get "Default Rating from IMDB" is ignored. Instead, I get the Rating from TMDb.


Before the issue started, I always had the votings and amount of votes of IMDB and beside the vote of TMDb which is handy to have both (using Aeon Nox Skin):


Now the first fiel of votes and "TMDb" votes are always the same (so first value is obvious also TMDb) and the amount of votes is also from TMDb.
This is especially ridiculous for not so well known movies and a handful votes.


I tried a fresh new KODI installation, but the issue is the same.
How can I correct the issue to get back also votes from IMDB?

Where did you change that setting- in Settings>Addons or in Source>Settings?

I can confirm the problem. It has also been reported in the German forum. Has nothing to do with settings. Also affects TMDb TV Shows Scraper 1.7.1

[Karellen]

Yes, so can I. Looks like something changed at IMDB.

I always used Source>Settings but changing also in Settings>Addons does not fix it.

Ok.
@pkscout is looking at the problem for the tv show scraper. Hopefully @rmrector will see my ping and check out the movie scraper also.

IMDB Ratings

@pkscout has looked at the issue for the TV Show scraper and states that it looks like IMDB are again restricting web scraping off their site, which is the cause of the current problem with IMDB Ratings.
It is not known when this can be fixed, or if it can be fixed.

A fix has been submitted for TV Shows.
One is still pending for Movies. If anybody is able to test and confirm it works correctly, the modified code is here... https://github.com/xbmc/metadata.themovi...n/pull/223

In the meantime, the LightIMDB addon is still working... https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=316342

TMDb TV Shows Scraper 1.7.2 works again. IMDb rating is read...

I posted a solution in German Kodi Forum. This forum doesn't allow attachements and when I copy the py code here, Cloudflare blocks.

Simply download zip, extract imdbratings.py into %APPDATA%\Kodi\addons\metadata.themoviedb.org.python\python\lib\tmdbscraper , overwrite and restart Kodi.

There is an PR in to fix the movie scraper using the same logic we used to fix the TV show scraper (I maintain the latter and put the PR in for the former).  If you want to try the official fix, you can grab the zip from the fork I made so I could make a PR:

https://github.com/pkscout/metadata.them...org.python

Note that the version number has not changed with the forked version.  Obviously after the PR is accepted the version number will be bumped before being submitted to the repo.

Hi

May somebody do a check if IMDB Rating is being pulled for you, when you Refresh or Scan Content on any movie item ?

For me : not since 4th Dec, on my main home setup, Kodi 19.3 on Android Shield. Waited a few days in case there was a temporary issue, etc, IMDB website change needing a scraper change / Addon update, etc, sometimes there are temporary TMDB issues, etc. Tested on another machine, a PC, different IP address (still UK) : clean install of Windows Kodi 21.0, setup Movie Database Python to scrape a dummy MKV file using an NFO with link to https://www.imdb.com/title/<ttid>. No joy there, either. SQLite on  rating  table confirms no  imdb  rec in there, only  themoviedb  entry.

I confirm your fix works well.

After updating the information for some movie, where was the issue

xml:
$INFO[ListItem.Rating(imdb)] 

displays a value now

Thanks a lot.

There is a fix pending, but you can download the fix from the Github via zip file and install manually via the link in the post directly before your post.
