NOTICE:

We are aware the update to the scraper yesterday did not resolve the issue. We consider the scraper still broken.

Once again TheMovieDB have made changes which are difficult to accommodate in the XML based scrapers. This affects both The Movie Database scraper and Universal Movie Scraper.

To continue scraping please switch over to the new Python based scraper... Add-on:The_Movie_Database_Python (wiki)
A current known issue with this scraper is that posters are scraped in English and this still needs to be fixed. If you use another language, download the correct poster manually.

The python 1.3.1 have the same errors with adding movies.
An example: When i add the movie "Nur 48 Stunden (1982).mkv" i get listed the movie in Kodi as "Limbus - Ein "Nur 48 Stunden"-Film (2015)"

I think I have just hit this problem (and am using 5.2.3)
I was searching for a film I recorded recently ... "Amundsen"
The Kodi search (broadly equivalent to)
https://www.themoviedb.org/search/movie?query=Amundsen
returns 10 results - with the titles (edited from the json returned to Kodi)
Code:
            "id": 545836,
            "title": "Amundsen",
            "original_title": "Amundsen",

            "id": 469200,
            "title": "Amundsen's Dogs",
            "original_title": "Los perros de Amundsen",

            "id": 344449,
            "title": "Roald Amundsen on the South Pole",
            "original_title": "Roald Amundsen på sydpolen",

            "id": 262953,
            "title": "Amundsen der Pinguin",
            "original_title": "Amundsen der Pinguin",

            "id": 583033,
            "title": "Roald Amundsen",
            "original_title": "Roald Amundsen",

            "id": 253982,
            "title": "Roald Amundsen - Ellsworths flyveekspedition 1925",
            "original_title": "Roald Amundsen - Ellsworths flyveekspedition 1925",

            "id": 436149,
            "title": "Battle in the Ice - Amundsen Omega3 South Pole Race",
            "original_title": "Battle in the Ice - Amundsen Omega3 South Pole Race",

            "id": 459054,
            "title": "Roald Amundsen's South Pole Expedition",
            "original_title": "Roald Amundsens Sydpolsferd (1910–1912)",

            "id": 678320,
            "title": "Titina",
            "original_title": "Titina",

            "id": 254070,
            "title": "Med 'Maud' over Polhavet",
            "original_title": "Med 'Maud' over Polhavet",

but the XML results returned by GetSearchResults have reduced that set and made a mess of the associations between title and ids.

Code:
        <title>Amundsen</title>
        <id>469200</id> <!-- wrong id ... this is from "Amundsen's Dogs" -->

        <title>Roald Amundsen på sydpolen</title>
        <id>262953</id> <!-- wrong id ... this is from "Amundsen der Pinguin" -->

        <title>Roald Amundsen</title>
        <id>253982</id> <!-- wrong id ... this is from "Roald Amundsen - Ellsworths flyveekspedition 1925" -->

        <title>Battle in the Ice - Amundsen Omega3 South Pole Race</title>
        <id>459054</id> <!-- wrong id ... this is from "Roald Amundsen's South Pole Expedition" -->

        <title>Amundsen</title>
        <id>469200</id> <!-- duplicate of above -->

        <title>Roald Amundsen on the South Pole</title>
        <id>262953</id> <!-- duplicate of above -->

        <title>Roald Amundsen</title>
        <id>253982</id> <!-- duplicate of above -->

        <title>Battle in the Ice - Amundsen Omega3 South Pole Race</title>
        <id>459054</id> <!-- duplicate of above -->

I don't understand you guys. 
There is an announcement just 1 and 2 posts above your complaints that we are aware of the issue and doing our best to resolve it. I am wondering, what more do you expect to happen based on your posts? Really, what?

I was just giving an example that should be easy to replicate - so that it could be easily used for testing in the next version.

I see a 5.2.4 is up now.
I'll try it out later.

It seems as though 5.2.4 has fixed the issue.  Two test titles that wouldn't scrape properly before are now working.

Hello all,

themoviedb is getting worse and worse. he is no longer able to recognize the film titles he has in his database. sometimes we get what he finds by sending him only the beginning of the title. for example, "Sorry we missed you" is found if I put only "Sorry" and choose from the list. he posts this film in 2017. once scraped, he puts the year 2019 which is right ?? !!

I changed a source with universal mobile scraper and came back to themoviedb, the scraping was worst than before so there is really a problem.

I use kodi Leia.
