Anyone can explain why i cant identify anyone (actress) from imdb? I have the correct ID and emby server still cant find anything at all, just a black blank page with "Search results". I'm missing something in settings or what's the problem?

 

Regards

IMDB is not directly used at all do to their api not being free.  The IMDBid will be used to search TMDB.  If the person is not linked to the that IMDBid then nothing is returned.  You would need to go over specific examples.

 

@Luke

But I do see a issue as I just tested Identify by IMDBid. why is query= nothing?

Yes I can reproduce that. Thanks.

Actually there is no moviedb search by person imdb id, so we have to just get that field off of the identify form.

Can you use "find" instead of "search"?

Is there an example url? I attempted to put one together based on movies but couldn't get it to work.

Does this help?

Looks identical to find done for TV or Movies by IMDBid.  This has the optional language.
