Title: Scraping Mini-Series
Post by: Ken aka Batman on November 27, 2012, 11:33:40 am

I'm trying to update my info for series'.

For example: Spartacus: Gods of the Arena is a 6 part mini-series.

When I try Get Movie & TV info I get nothing or I get the wrong Spartacus series.

I know Imdb has a link to each episode here: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1758429/episodes?season=1

Part 1 = http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1775926/
Part 2 = http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1775927/

ect...

I've tried changing media subtype, names, seasons, ect...

How can I edit the scraper to lookup based in the imdb ID, or something like that depending on the site?

Hi Ken,

It's thetvdb thats got them wrong here. Gods of the Arena are special episodes of Spartacus, so just set this as season 0 and it will work. I had the same problem.

Thanks, it worked, I had to change the name, but that's not MC18's fault.

X for the Season worked great.
