Australian Classifications Issue

[gothicaria 5]

Hi There,

I have my rating classification country set to AU and for the meta data to grab AU ratings but alot of my movies are still rated using US ratings so when I try to use the parental feature to block anything AU-RA18+ and above from my sons account it will hide anything without an AUS classification. Im not sure what im doing wrong here as from what I have read it should still take the rating into account regardless of the rating local?

Your help is appreciated

That's how it's supposed to work, ratings get weight assigned and are practically country-independent for processing, so if it doesn't work for you specific example would be needed.

I guess what Im asking is why is the AU metadata for ratings not being pulled from my metadata sources when I have it set to get AU data. It just keeps grabbing the US ratings. My only other alternative from what I can see is to manually change them all to AU ratings myself.

Likely because providers don't have it in your preferred system - no providers have ratings for all countries, you'll get what they have, AU if available, some other if not.

Grim is right, no one provider will have all movie ratings in AU, but TMDB does have majority (which provider do you have set for priority?)

I have spent countless hours contributing to TMDB for titles that did not have AU ratings so that others may benefit. Are you saying none of your movies are pulling down AU ratings?

Do you have some examples?

Some of them do but still a lot of them with US ratings. This is my movie priority settings

Yeah I have the same problem, especially with TV Shows. It usually grabs the US ratings if there is no AU (TV-PG, TV-MA.. etc.). Not so much with movies, they usually get the right AU rating. It's a pain with some tvshows though.

As @gothicariastated I don't think this works as intended (ratings get weight assigned and are practically country-independent for processing), at least for AU ratings anyway.

I can’t see TMDB as an option for Metadata in plugins? Is there another way to set up to use it?

You're already using it 

TheMovieDb = TMDB

That's odd, as that title definitely has the correct AU metadata and rating on TMDB.

And you have this set in your 'Movies' library settings?

I don't do per library settings and just use the advanced setting, is that maybe a problem?

I have both set up just in case 

[seanbuff 1316]

I just added this movie to a test library of mine, and it just pulled in the correct metadata without mods

Quote

  <rating>8.3</rating>
  <year>1995</year>
  <sorttitle>Toy Story</sorttitle>
  <mpaa>AU-G</mpaa>
  <imdbid>tt0114709</imdbid>
  <tmdbid>862</tmdbid>
  <premiered>1995-10-30</premiered>
  <releasedate>1995-10-30</releasedate>

Not sure what else it could be?

[seanbuff 1316]

As a test, under a users profile - what list of ratings do you have in 'Parental Control' tab?

My 'Parental Control' tab looks exactly the same as yours.

Not sure why there is a "AU-M15+" classification, there is no such AU rating and I have no movies with that rating.

Yeah true, not sure where that one came from

Do a Refresh Metadata>Replace All on that item, maybe there wasn't AU rating at the time of initial import and someone like Sean added it at a later point for community benefit.

I did the latest refresh today with no changes  My parental ratings are the same as both of you guys as well. Could radarr be messing with these values?

Just added this movie to test the AU classification and it pulled the AU rating for me, same as @seanbuff...
