Hello everyone,
I really love TheMovieDatabase scraper, but since some time several posters are missing in my movie library in Kodi (after scanning), even if they exist on http://themoviedb.org.
TMDb Settings:
Keep Original Title - off
Enable Fanart - on
Enable trailer - off
Preferred Language - en
Preferred Certification Country - de (germany)
Default Rating from - IMDB
Example:
The Man Cave, 2014 (German movie, original title: Männerhort)
=> Kodi gets the title, description, cast ... everything but not the poster.
==> The funny thing is, if I change the "Preferred Language" to "de" (german), the poster is found/working Oo
Link to the movie: https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/290599-m-nnerhort
TMDb JSON to the movie: https://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/movi...man%20cave
Corresponding poster url: https://image.tmdb.org/t/p/w600_and_h900...kUcW19.jpg
Conclusion:
Actually it should work. You can see the poster in the JSON file and the corresponding poster url.
Not sure why the poster can be found if I change the preferred language to german? Sure, because it is a german movie, but this should affect the JSON file? Or does it try to get the "english" poster and if there is no existing one, it grabs nothing, instead of the german one?
Further information:
Using Kodi on Windows PC (18.0-ALPHA2) and ODROID C2 via LibreElec (8.24, Kodi 17.6).
TMDb should be version 5.1.2 in both cases.
