Fixed it!
i'll leave this here in case other people run into the same problem.

I have simply setted "Universal Movie Scraper" instead of TMDb.

Now all the elements in the movie folder have their infos (director,actors, movie plot, posters...).

Thanks to all of you

You are probably running an outdated version of SPMC, which is the only one available in the playstore. Version 16.6 had some issue with TMDB. You are going to have to sideload Version 16.7.1 (http://spmc.semperpax.com) to get TMDB working. I would highly recommend using TMDB over universal.

Thank you very much. Indeed i have version 16.6. Do you know if or when they will upload version 16.7.1 in the playstore?

And why you recommend tmbd over universal movie scraper? So far i ve been fine with it.

Just a suggestion ... For Mac/Win/Linux

There's an app called Tiny Media Manager that does a great job of scraping all the artwork, creates an nfo file, removes all the junk, and renames the files and directory to whatever you want. KODI's scraping system doesn't do as complete a job as TMM.

This is a utility that you run on a desktop - not on a KODI device. You can connect TMM to a KODI machine's file folders by SMB and run it to fix/cleanup/rename the files though SMB shares and it works as it should. I do all my cleanups on a separate machine, and copy the final, cleaned up folder with the movie or tv show in it, to the KODI machine. KODI doesn't have to scrape the internet to get the art and info for that movie or tv show because it's already done.  So then run Clean Library / Update Library.

( Never understood why Clean Library is not in the same Options side-panels that have Update Library in them. It's annoying to have to leave whereever I'm at and have to go into the System Settings and drill down into the arcane systems settings just to Clean Library. )
