Hallo everyone,
I discussed the following problem already in an other thread beside six othe questions. Because i think that this problem is pretty big (and maybe even a bug) I desided to open a new topic especially for this problem (I hope this is ok ^^):
I have the following movie-structure:
...Movies
___Moviename
____Moviename.mkv
____nfo
now to the Problem. I created some dummy-files as followed:
Foldername: 'asdf'
Filename: 'asdf.mkv'
Nfo filename: 'movie.nfo',
Nfo file-content "http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1375666/"
Scrapper: IMDB
Use Foldername for Lookups: yes
This works perfect. "Inception" is added to my movie-db. I can even name the nfo-file as I want and it still works (e.g. 'qwre.nfo' works perfekt) - as it should (I read that xbmc looks in every nfo-file for links!).
If i now use the TMDB-Scrapper "nothing" works:
Foldername: 'asdf'
Filename: 'asdf.mkv'
Nfo filename: 'movie.nfo',
Nfo file-content "http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1375666/"
Scrapper: TMDB
Use Foldername for Lookups: yes
I can rename the nfo-file as I want, but it never works. Nothing is added to the Movie-DB.
I am also pritty sure that a TMDB can handle IMDB-Links. I am also sure that exactly this worked some weeks ago and now does not work anymore.
A Very intereseting answer comes from Ardalista (At this point, thank you again!)

Especially:
So is this a bug? Was there an update some weeks ago in the TMDB-Scrapper (because the above worked!).
Thanks,
Daniel

Quote:So TMDB is using the URL from the .nfo file, but what the TMDB scraper is doing with that data from then on is a mystery to me.
