@speedyflipper I started having the problem with the actor names not showing; I incorporated your fix and it worked, thank you. If I knew python I would help maintain this metadata agent, but unfortunately I’m a student and learning Java.
just wanted to report I’m also having the issue of it not pulling the poster down. the description and other fields do get picked up but no poster. I tried naming the folder the # from the url but still no luck. I imagine they probably changed the code on data18.
Same here: everything get pulled just fine despite the poster.
can anyone explain these options (Screen shot) that are in the advanced area when you setup the library? i read about it on the github page but i still dont fully understand. What is meant by “image proxy URL, fan art scene image count, and allow alternate poster”?
I just tried the data18 bundle and yes it does not pull the poster anymore automatically. I was able to add manually but that is not really fun.
@chidychi would you be able to take a look ?
Yeah it’s so frustrating because I’m sure it’s just a tiny piece of code they changed on their end. I really wish I knew Python then I could check it out myself. Does anyone out there have any suggested reading if I wanted to dig into something like this? Like Linda Learning, or Python for Pron Addicts? I wonder if they did it on purpose. Because think about it, we’re all using their bandwidth to download their images, just guessing…
My data18 library has eclipsed 5,000 titles. Why would anyone ever need that many “movies”?
Thanks again for putting together this plugin.
@unabatedshagie; try having a little more patience, you notice how you haven’t paid for this plugin? These guy are doing this work for free…deep breath friend

I’m not sure if you’ve read someone else’s name wrong but I posted once at the beginning of the month about it not working for me and a couple of times after I’ve replied to other people.
Please help I cant see what I am doing wrong I have a movie with the title called
DDF Busty - Role Play is Not Enough - He Wants To ■■■■ Her Giant Jugs! (25.06.16) HD
I have confirmed here that is correct http://www.data18.com/content/1163832 but cannot pull in any info and it the goes for all movies like this. don’t know maybe I have name wrong etc
@OzeroinfectionO
Please see a few posts above; 1) that sounds like data-18-content so make sure you’re using the right scanner and 2) above it says that the FOLDER needs to be named 1163832 for it to pick it up. Give that a try.

Data18 has changed it’s webpage.
The fix is simple, in the init.py file in th data18-content.bundle, you need to change the following lines (12 & 13)
XP_SCENE_LINK = ‘’.join([‘//div[contains(@class,“bscene”)]’,
‘//span//a[contains(@href,“content”)]’])
to
XP_SCENE_LINK = ‘’.join([‘//div[contains(@class,“bscene”)]’,
‘//p//a[contains(@href,“content”)]’])
(or juste replace //span to //p in line 13)
I just made the changes that @RyoSaeba75 suggested, and the Data18-Content scraper started matching again. So I can confirm that this works.
@RyoSaeba75 many thanks could you please take also a look at the data18.bundle. I think we have a very similar problem there.
Thanks in advance

Hi, thanks for reply
I replaced that with no such luck I’m afraid.
I have scanner for adult section set to Data18-Content. and the movie file set to…
DDF Busty - Role Play is Not Enough - He Wants To **** Her Giant Jugs! (25.06.16) HD
I have also tried this…
DDFBusty - Jaylene Rio - Role Play is Not Enough - He Wants To ■■■■ Her Giant Jugs! (25.06.16) HD
But cannot find the meta data or art work.
Also tried naming folder to the id number with no luck either.
Any suggest would be great
Thanks
@OzeroinfectionO change the file name to ‘role play is not enough.mp4’ (or whatever extension). I’ve found that when I have a movie with a name that contains some type of punctuation I have to manipulate it and get it to match. If you’re unsure what will work, type the file name into Data 18 search, and if the content you want returns as the only match that’s it. Also, plex will sometimes ignore punctuation as well, so from the affected video you can click the ‘…’ and select ‘Fix Incorrect Match’ or ‘Match’, then click ‘Search Options’ and ensure the exact file name with punctuation is entered. All else fails, in the same box type the number and it should match right away (ex. in the case of http://www.data18.com/content/1163832 type ‘1163832’ to get a match).
jdot that is the same method I use as well; I also have 1 library called Data18-Movies and another Data18-Clips. That way my movie library is always complete and clean (pun intended). Whereas the content one is a little like the wild west 
Thanks for all your help people. finally fixed it. Was to do with name of the files.
Cheers
does anyone know how i can get it to stop automatically filling in the collections field? Not sure where this data is coming from either but it just usually puts the title of the movie. I was using it for something else. appreciate any ideas, thanks
Status:
I am running plex 1.0 version and I am having now the following issue with both DATA18 Plug-Ins.
- No Actor name retrieved any more
- On data18.bundle the poster is not being pulled anymore either
Does anybody else have these problems and has anybody worked out a fix ?

You need to change
role.actor
by
role.name
in the init.py file
@spanishu said:

I have the issue from time to time but refreshing the medata seem to pull the poster.

The collection field is filled with the origin site of the movie (if available). You can stop it to be filled by adding a#a the start of each following linges
try:
collection = parse_document_site(html)
if collection:
metadata.collections.clear()
metadata.collections.add(collection)
Log(‘Collection Sequence Updated’)
except:
pass

For what it’s worth, I made the change regarding role.actor to role.name in the init.py file and my cover-art started working again. Maybe it’s a coincidence, but it worked for me on two separate servers.
