Title: Theater and Tree View - Movie Year sometimes incorrect.
Post by: cmbe on February 05, 2012, 03:21:54 pm

Hi,

I have added to the movies detail the Year field in Theater and Tree views, but It seems that "Get TV & Movie Info", is not always getting the correct Year (I have run in a batch for start). Sometimes gets what appears to be the movie file Year instead, or no Year at all. This persists even when I try to do a new "Get TV & Movie Info" manually. But if in this situation I select the Wikipedia as source instead of TMDb, the Year is then correctly parsed/shown.

Example: The X-Files: I Want to Believe (2008)
Source: TMDb

I get an empty Year field (batch and manually).

Maybe there is a issue TMDb parser, or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks for your help.

Hi,

Could anyone please tell me how to raise the priority for Wikipedia over TMDb in "Get TV & Movie Info"? This would be a workaround for my issue, with incorrect Movie Year with TMDb scrapper.

I believe that your best bet for the moment is to manually update those files with incorrect dates and choose Wikipedia. It's slow, but does the job. I believe there is currently similar behavior with TVDB dates too, so hopefully this is something that is being investigated currently.
