I'm running 1.3.09 from Dan's sig and while trying to scrape a couple movies tonight, I am not getting anything from IMDB. POster, fanart and codec info are all fine, but no cast, plot, rating or anything else from IMDB. The movies I tried are Red Dawn (2012) and The Imposter (2012). Anyone else having a problem?
I was scraping cast and actors earlier this evening with no issues, as well as updating some posters. Granted it wasn't a full scrape with no previous NFO, but I was getting info back.

Scraping
- Scrape Logos, ClearArt, Discart, Banner, Character Art, Landscape
Edit Movie Mode
- Movie <set> field in Movie edit screen
Thank you again for all your time you put into keeping EMM alive and any consideration you give this list.
I'd like to add my personal support for the above features as well.
It would be nice to scrape the set info using TMDB movie collection field and be able to scrape a poster/fanart for the set.
I do want to add that these two features that you requested are already available in Ember today (and I used them today).
- Add ability to rescrape actors
- Add ability to rescrape select pieces for a single movie
If you change your scraper settings to select only the fields you want, i.e. writer, director, and actors, then select the movies you want to update, and choose the (re)scrape option for NFO only, it will do what you want. I do this when updating cast, ratings/votes, etc.
Thanks for the direction deh2k7.
1) Shall I assume that selecting Cast will honor the Miscellaneous settings for cast, actors and crew?
2) Do I also need to check all the Global locks?
Still right clicking is more convenient and faster than having to change settings each time.
I use global locks for a couple fields, and I use the misc settings for cast and it all seems to work fine for me. I recommend testing it on a movie or two just to make certain for your setup, but I think you'll find it works as you need it to.
I agree, it could potentially be a bit easier, but the functionality is there and it works, and it's all in the GUI, so I'd rather see Dan and M. work on things that aren't working or new things vs. this functionality, don't you think?
