Hello, congratulations for this great media manager.

I have found that I can Scrape directly from TMDB from the search dialog typing:
"id<my.media.tmdb.ID>"
And works great... unless the media is not a movie but (for example) a TV show, that (apparently) use a diferent set of IDs (so that there can be two (or more) identical IDs: one for a movie; other for a TV show; (etc.)

This particular TV show does appear in my movie list (not the TV list), so, is there a way to explicitly tell MediaElch I am looking for a TV id instead of a Movie ID? Can I force this show to appear in the TV shows list instead of the Movies list?

Thanks!

Hi,

MediaElch will only search for movies in the movie list. And only for TV shows in the TV show list. The TMDb API returns different structures for TV shows and movies.
If you search for a TV show, you can search for a TMDb ID without the "id" prefix, e.g. Search for 456 and you will get The Simpsons. :-)
(I may require an ID prefix in the future to avoid ambiguities and to be consistent with the movie search).

Why does your TV show appear in the movie list view? Is that on purpose? :-)

Regards,
Andre
