Is there a way to make EMM scrape the "IMDB display title", ie the one that actually is displayed most prominently on IMDB, the "main one"?
I've been using EMM for a while now, mainly for generating movie.nfos to be read later on by XBMC, and this is the one major annoyance I have with it, for foreign movies it always retrieves the original title, OR if I "force" it to some language it sometimes retrieves the forced language title. Usually I set it to "USA", however this is definitely NOT the same as the "IMDB display title" - sometimes it's the same, sometimes it matches the main title.
However more often it does not, and also often it finds some unwanted working title when set to USA, even if the original title would be fine, because it isn't even a foreign movie.
For example take this movie:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2191861/
No matter whether I untick "Force title language" or if I set it to "USA" it will always find "Ai de mian bao hun" when clearly an international "IMDB display title" of "The Soul of Bread" is there
Is there any way to make it do what i want (which seems pretty straightforward and obvious to me, just take the most prominent title on there....)?
Sorry if this has been asked and answered before. I can't imagine this hasn't been asked before, however I couldn't find anything about it, which seems a bit strange. If there is some information for this already available please just point me in the direction.
