Original issue 2705 created by Omertron on 2013-12-06T18:11:24.000Z:

What steps will reproduce the problem?

  1. Set mjb.people=true
  2. Get people info from imdb
  3. Run Yamj

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Within the person.xml files created it creates a simple field <knownMovies>129</knownMovies> and an extended field <filmography> <movie character="UNKNOWN" department="Directing" id="tt0055858" job="Director" name="The Grim Reaper" originalTitle="The Grim Reaper" rating="70" title="La Commare Secca" url="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0055858/&quot; year="1962">La Commare Secca</movie> ..... </filmography>

In Imdb on the Name pages http://www.imdb.com/name/nm....... in the Filmography Section there is a list of roles (Director, Writer, Actor, etc.) and within each a list of the movies and TV shows in which that person has had that role.

I would expect:

the person.xml knownMovies value to correspond in some way to the sum of the Imdb roles.

All the films (and TV Series unless plugin.people.skip.TV=true) listed on the Imdb page to be included in the filmography section of the person.xml

What I find is

The knownMovies can be greater or less than the individual lists (before adjusting TV Episodes).

I have not found any correlation between the lists in the IMDB indices and actual films added to the filmography section.

I have attached a jpg showing the results for 7 examples (Andrei Tarkovsky, Bernardo Bertolucci, Claude Chabrol, Adolf Hilter, Claude Rains and Ang Lee.

What version/revision of YAMJ are you using? On what operating system?

r3831, win8.1 64 bit, What skin are you using? various html and flash skins

What device are you using YAMJ on? Networked Media Tank, PlayonHD, Other?

I Have the same problem.

YAMJ HTML on Windows 7 64Bit. YAMJ r3940 MediaInfo 0.7.70

The files /Jukebox/People/ActorName.html shows only the photo, the name and birth date. This happen for ALL actors searched. See the attached html for Hugh Jackman.
