Hi Olympia,

Some examples,

forcing the settings to "USA" with a text editor I got:

9th Company
Black Book
Come and See
Mesrine: Killer Instinct
Mesrine: Public Enemy No. 1
Tae Guk Gi: The Brotherhood of War
The Barbarian Invasions
The Secret of the Grain

For the same movies with the standard "USA / International" I got:

9 rota
Zwartboek
Go and Look
L'instinct de mort
L'ennemi public n°1
Brotherhood
Les invasions barbares
Couscous

I tested EMM-R setting the title language to USA and no problems.

I am not sure the scraper is broken, for me it seems that it is working as designed. I am totally ignorant of the code, but my intuition tells me that the scraper goes to the akas-imdb page and looks for the title with the language tag chosen in the scraper.

Actually I changed the setting to "English title" with a text editor because I saw this tag in akas.imdb and yes I got the English title but it was a mess since what it is defined as the English title could be anything, i.e. the movie "Almost Famous (2000)" is "Back in Those Days with Penny Lane" (the english title in Japan)!!!

As I mentioned, I am totally incompetent in the coding part, and in many more things about IMDB, and you probably know this but if you allow me
what I think EMM-R does is a request to IMDB with an additional parameter.

No idea how they do this but I have my own account in IMDB and in my settings I have the following two site preferences set to:

Title display country: USA
Title display language: English

I am not sure if it is possibe to add these parameters to the scraper and that's all. Maybe, as you say, it requires a complete rebuilt.

But for me it works great but as everything it could be improved.

Decoupling the "USA / International" in two, should not be difficult (I think), the other part is a different story.

Thanks for your attention.
