which scraper did you use?
we did not change anything there (except adopting the imdb scraper to the new imdb HP structure)

Scraping standard with imdb and no exotic config.
imdb config with scrapeLanguageNames disabled.
Since upgrading from an older version all movies of the last few scrapes always end up with full language names instead of iso codes.
Seems to be consistend for the last 20 movies or so i checked after noticing. Everything scraped with an older version still has the iso language codes.
Does imdb with scrapeLanguageNames DISABLED work for you?
If i have time i'll make a test with a clean 2.9.7 install and a new dummy movie scrape.
Thanks again!

(This post was last modified: 2018-01-03, 21:08 by axbmcuser.)
Update: I tried scraping with scrapeLanguageNames ENABLED this time. Just now i noticed this switch just localizes the long language names. It does not switch between two letter language codes and long text, but between localized and not localized long language name.
I guess this is intentional? Scraping with tmdb for example still gets the two letter language name format - but i don't use tmdb since it mostly only gets english as spoken language where imdb gets all spoken languages for your region of the movie.
Where do the "long" language names come from? Are they 1:1 taken from imdb? Or is this a TMM internal thingy?
Edit:
Just checked again. Help text of TMM states the switch indeed has been for switching between iso language code and long language name. So i guess i don't really know where to look for debugging. Let me know, if i can help.

okay, looks like the guy (which created the patch for imdb for XMAS) missed something here and I did not see it when merging
need to change the imdb scraper once again -.-

Thanks for the info! Then i'll wait, i guess. :-)
Hmm. Combining imdb (primary) with tmdb as additional secondary info scrape (for tags) always worked great for me for ger lang.
Basic info and localized release dates seems to be best from imdb. imdb language codes for spoken languages and country name have been neutral iso codes using the discussed option - which i like. ...and the three localized things i want (tagline, plot, movie set name) are automatically used from tmdb because they are not to find on imdb as far as is know (using the tmdb fallback option). One additional meta scrape for tags using tmdb and i could not have asked for more in the past. :-)
I had worse results for my taste when using tmdb as primary source for all basic info - if i hadn't maybe i'd use it as primary.
