Scraper Issues
#1
I'm currently having issues with EMM scraping some information.

I'm having to use both the built in scraper (imdb) and the TMDB Scrapers

The IMDB Scraper won't place in the Original and American titles whereas

The TMDB Scraper won't scrape the MPAA or certification fields

Any thoughts?

Personally I like TMDB For scraping movies their information just seems to be much cleaner as well as their fan art and poster sections are more inline with how I like things to be set up.

NOTE: I've noticed in bulk renamer it will not save the settings i place in on how i want the movies and folders to be named.

Thanks

You can't use both scrapers at the same time.
We try to fix this in Ember 1.4.... and no, we don't have a timeline =)

I'm not using both scrapers at the same time. I'm using one for one aspect that works and the other for another.

IMDB for Original titles

TMDB for MPAA/Certs

While reading down the forum i came across this thread and figured out that i asked almost the same question;

I'm also trying to use both scrapers for specific info and it only grabs the info from 1 scraper.
So i think it also doesn't work if you select different options in both scrapers.

I've fingered out a workaround for my situation;
Set the TMDB scraper as default, scanning all the info except the Ratings and Votes.
Set the IMDB scraper to scan only for Ratings and Votes. (Disable scraper in settings)

Scrape all my movies (or just those who needs to be scraped)
Go into settings and disable the TMDB scraper and enable the IMDB scraper

Go to "Scrape Media" and select custom Scraper
Deselect all items except Ratings and Votes (in your case "Title")

All nfo's are updated with only the specified info.

It takes 10 more minutes of my time but still is way easier than adjusting them manually.

Hopefully you find this post useful.
