Solved Any way to force the scrapper to recognize International title?
#1
I have tons of asian (-400-500) movies unrecognized, and the only way to get them scrapped is by renaming them into their native title,
sometimes i have to use non-alphabet character, e.g

Curse of the Golden Flower (2006) ~ 滿城盡帶黃金甲 (2006)

This is problematic because i don't read chinese and might be a problem when i want to search for the movie in explorer..

From what i understand, TMDB only looks for the native title..So how exactly do i change this in the settings?

I've set the prefered language and certification to Zh
Also read in a thread Olympia said to use movies.nfo linking to the imdb page,

did both of them, but it gave me "NO INFO FOUND" when i manually refreshed it..

Here's the log file, as i suspected, it returns original title in Chinese

Code:

I always assumed TMDB looked at the original/native title, as well as alternative titles?

Problem solved
I feel kinda stupid, it turns out i set a rule in advancedsettings to enclude "en" folder,
that's why movies containing "en" doesn't show up lol Big Grin
