@Hitcher , thanks for the info! 

In regards to MPAA, this is for what is being returned directly by the plugin (I am pressing i in a widget item from a plugin widget), so no scraper involved.  Also, in my case, I do not do scraping online via Kodi, all of my local content MPAA come from NFOs.

I've added an option in the settings to choose the MPAA prefix.
However, you will have to deal with this anyway in skins as scrapers allow the user to set the prefix for MPAA rating.

I've also added some fixes in case the api is down so that an error isn't thrown. The plugin will still log the http request error code, but shouldn't throw an exception.

@jurialmunkey, thank you!

You are correct about the prefix for mpaa, and that’s why I provide the users with guidelines as to how their MPAA certifications need to be scraped in order for Amber to show a flag. Since I know that in a lot of cases that is not necessarily followed, I always display a text version of the certification also.

What would you say is the best way to implement a country lookup? Call the plugin with a discover type query?

If you mean country for certifications, that's currently hardcoded to US as that's what OMDb returns. I'll be implementing language options soon and then I will pull certifications from TMDb instead. Once that's implemented you will be able to grab the language from the addon settings.

If you mean country as in a plugin path for movies from X country, then you might be able to use discover with
&certification_country=
I think you need to translate the coubtry to the certification codes used by tmdb though.

I'll have a look later today and see if it's possible to add.
