Rating details question

[jsc1205 51]

Now that the rating pops up on screen when a movie plays, how do we show the details of the rating?  Screenshots are Emby compared to Netfix.

Hi, Emby Server currently does not track that information, so before we can show it we have to first find a source for it.

Any idea where others like Netflix, Hulu etc etc pull that info?  I did not see anything on TMDB so wondering where the source would come from so you guys could implement it.

Do they show the same values for the same content? They're either getting it from the content owners or they might have interns doing it for every new video added to their catalog.

I know Common Sense Media has info on ratings etc and I have seen a post or two about implementing their rating info into Emby.  Wonder if that would work?

We'll have to look into their terms of use and what they allow. @ebr

Here is another source:  https://www.filmratings.com/  

The search will give you the rating as well as the reason for the rating.

Hi.  We have investigated this in the past and the cost to us was well beyond the benefit of the information we were getting.  We can potentially explore again in the future.
