This has nothing to do with YAMJ.
It seeams that IMDb is changing the layout of all other sides (not only the US-side). Also the search results has changed, so that some other methods must be implemented. We will see what changes comes next.
For your request: I don't think that YAMJ can override any IP-bassed localization. Perhaps there's a setting for URL requests in order to use unlocalized behaviour; but at the moment it works as desired.

Hm, I'm not sure if I understand you correctly, but are you saying it's currently not possible to override the regional title retrieval from IMDb? I've always used imdb.site=us or imdb.site=labs to solve this and it's worked up until the last couple of days.

At the moment: NO This is not YAMJ specific problem; this depends on the IMDb site itself, where we have no impact on.

One ide for testing to you:
Set in your own moviejukebox.properties: imdb.full.info=true
Then the combined IMDB page is use for scraping; as I seen so far these pages are not geo-localized at the moment. Perhaps in some days or weeks this also will change; depends what IMDB's master plan is ...

Other possible workaround:
Additonaly set in your moviejukebox.properties: imdb.site=labs
But note: This are only workarounds!

I tried your workarounds but none of them really work. Using imdb.full.info=true does nothing alone, nor does imdb.site=labs, but using both at the same time seems to fix the localised title issue. However, it's not able to pull the plot/synopsis when both of these are in effect.
I use full info /combined on IMDb on my computers and I do not get localised titles here.
This is really annoying. About 30% of my films have Norwegian titles now that don't make any sense to me at all.

My last idea for a workaround with correct plot: imdb.full.info=true imdb.site=labs imdb.plot=long
At least: Using NFO files; just the ID and correct values (i.e. title) in the NFO which cannet be scraped correctly from IMDB.

Yep, using plot=long works. But the long plots don't fit in my skin and it just ends up looking really messy, so it's not really a solution for me, I'm afraid.
I can add NFO's for any new films added that get scraped with localised titles (I'm already doing this now), but it's not an option having to do this with my already existing 1000+ film library.
I hope this get fixed sometime in the not so distant future. Damn IMDb and their constant need to change around things all the time!

Close cause IMDB geo location cannot be overriden.
Instead the TheMovieDB-Plugin can be used for scraping. Or the creation of NFO files for the movies.

Reopened in order to fix geo location problem, by retrieving alias for preferred country from releaseinfo page

See: http://code.google.com/p/moviejukebox/wiki/PropertiesConfiguration#imdb.aka.scrape.title
Now there is the possibility to scrape th localized title for the preferred country.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead? r3500 has broken the imdb.site=us setting used to avoid getting regional titles from IMDb based on IP. I now get Norwegian titles on some films.
What version/revision of YAMJ are you using? On what operating system? r3500
What skin are you using? Eversion
