TheMovieDB (TMDB) in any foreign language



Thanks. It's supported for TV Shows, if that's of any help (TVDB). I'll gladly help with testing.

I don’t see this in update from yesterday. Does that make sence?

yep. The second patch is not yet pushed as the dev have others bugs to squash with the recent upgrade :slight_smile:

@flow: I won’t make any disrespectful remarks to the plex dev while have a pending pull-request :slight_smile: (and because i’m a civlized person). However i’m seriously thinking of putting a place an alternate way of pushing a feature-full metadata agent to people who want to test it. :slight_smile:



@sander: please, have a look on my patches, and come have a talk, i have plenty of new ideas for metadata agents in Plex :wink:



@flow: do we have a chat room (campfire) for people working on metadata agent / scanners / scrapper ?



cheers,

It would be nice if the Russian film support may be added.

TMDB has a new API (v3). It has some new possibilities like collections and posters in the language of the user. I discovered that XBMC Eden is already using the new API and the results are just perfect.

Would be great to update the code to the new API so Plex users can benefits the same functionalities as XBMC users.



Also, I had some issues with this metadata agent recently. When using it in French language, some movies titles came in French but some in English. This is weird because it was working great a few months ago and my settings are correct. Due to this issue after a reinstall of PMS, I had to scrap all my movies with XBMC, exported the info and images and imported back in PMS with this tool : http://forums.plexapp.com/index.php/topic/38402-metadata-agents-for-exported-xbmc-library/



One drawback was to rename 10% of my movies because TMDB don’t like some signs like -'éèàäüö. But there was a reward to do this, I have the IMDB rating for all my movies !


I don't know the status of this, but some work has already been done on an update to work the new version of the TMDb API: https://github.com/plexinc-agents/TheMovieDB.bundle/tree/v3api

It doesn’t work properly. NP with English but some issues with other languages (for Nederlands no posters and fanarts but the rest is ok, for French no summary and original title, posters and titles are in English). But in all cases, Collections works !

Can you add the option to download Brazilian Portuguese (pt_BR) metadata? The Portuguese (pt_PT) currently available in the database (and linked to the The Movie Database Agent) isn’t as complete as the first, therefore most of the summaries fallback to English (en_US).
