AxelAxel3 23 Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 I have curious George that I have added to MB for my daughter. It gets recognized as http://thetvdb.com/?tab=series&id=79429&lid=7, which is correct. But the information in season 1 is completely wrong. But in IMDB everything is correct (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0449545/episodes?season=1&ref_=tt_eps_sn_1) But I dont have the option to use IMDB as a database for it. Is there anything I can do to change it to the IMDB? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37106 Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Purchase an Imdb data license, build an Imdb data provider, and then you should be good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there anything I can do to change it to the IMDB? You can contact the ppl over at tvdb and tell them it's wrong and why and they will probably change it (if not imbd is wrong) IMDB is very anal with their data and charge very very handsomely for it, so that's a no go :/ Good thing you can probably edit the data in the media-manager to fit it anyways so it should be doable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelman1991 19 Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Is it wrong, or just not in the format you have it (DVD Order perhaps). TVDB is listed strictly in 'aired order', though I think there is an option to scrape from DVD order in the web browser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to the air times on Wikipedia and the DVDs I have there are only 30 episodes and they are all out of order. I may have to edit it myself or just contact them. It will just take a bunch of work for me to do it manually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaceboy 2494 Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 My experience is that thetvdb will not fix it either. I've made changes, been backed by 2nd person, still waiting 6 months later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curious.George.s01e01e02.mp4 Curious.George.s01e03e04.mp4 You need to name your episodes like this, so your 30 episodes will merge and match TVDB's 60. A lot of animation has this issue and it is easily resolved. Split vs Merged. Edited February 23, 2015 by speechles 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
