Hi all,
a few questions regarding the internal scraping function. I did not find a answer yet so perhaps someone has information for me
1) I use a German Scraper: Videobuster. This works pretty good and has a rate of more that 90% in my system. I'm very happy with it. Another scrapper the OFDB does not work as good as the Videobuster here but together with the Videobuster the rate was almost 100%. So my question would be if there's a function or script that uses one preferred scrapper and for all other films that has not been found use another second scraper. Of course it would not be easy to compare the results and find the best one - that's not the question. It would really improve if a second backup scraper checks the films that HAS NOT been found.
2) Another question would be (if there's no solution described in my first point) if it would be possible to add the films that has not been found by a scraper to the database. Of course only with no cover and the Title that comes from the filename. The advantage then would be that you see the films that has not been found yet and could directly go for it. Otherwise you have to switch to the NON Database mode and the look for the film and then try out to find information form other scrapers. For me this would improve the situation a lot :-) (As my wife would not permatly ask where the films are :-) )
Regards,
Alex
