Movie metadata search in TMDB and ...

[Luke 42078]

i don't get the real logic behind the sorting in the search but it seems on first view to be alphabetically in large and so starting with an 'O' is not on top

so nothing to blame to tmdb

 

the 'Legende' results i completely don't understand but when you search for the original title 'legend' its magically the second result -> https://www.themoviedb.org/search?query=legend

 

Thanks, and yea Legend is good but we don't have that information. All we have is the video file name which is Legende (1985).

i know just wanted to show the difference

^ this are 2 movies

 

 

• Alien 3, Autómata are missing the cover <-- both work as they should here (btw official german & original title of 'Alien 3' is 'Alien³' which also works ) --> not working for me with default settings
• Legende (1985) is identify with "Det legende menneske" which sounds like netherlands to me <-- confirmed, also "Det legende menneske" is from 1986, the correct one would be -> https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/11976-legend

 

 

^ it's there -> https://www.themoviedb.org/search/movie?query=legende&page=8 <-- 8 of 16 (319 Results)

 

 

• Oben (2009) is identified as "Die Erde von oben - Artenvielfalt" <-- confirmed, the wrong identified "Die Erde von oben - Artenvielfalt" is from 2008, the correct one would be -> https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/14160-up

same here -> https://www.themoviedb.org/search/movie?query=oben&page=2 <-- 2 of 3 (44 Results)

 

 

• Madagascar 2 (2008) is missing any pictures <-- works as it should here -> not working for me with default settings
• #9 (2009) is identified as "Distric 9" <-- works as it should here -> not working for me with default settings

 

 

 

^ after identified you have to hit 'refresh' ('aktualisieren') -> 'complete refresh' ('kompletter refresh') to update all fields

 

What you described is not working here at all (only pictures are updated nothing else) -> is this really working on your system?

 

@daedalus: on which OS you run emby server and which version?

 

@@Luke

for the tolerance year maybe server sould search "twice" and use the tolerance year only if nothing was found in the first run with the given one

Exact, and as it is working for example within kodi one could check their source code to see how they are successfully identify all thoses movies ;-)

Kodi is probably (illegally) using IMDb and we are using tmdb.

So i am not the only one realizing that emby is weak in scraping movie metadata:
