Movie Original title being used #41

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. used the commandline and the GUI option to search and update movies.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
should have found the movie Redemption tt1893256, And it did but it wants to 
use the original title of Hummingbird.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
r967 on Linux

Please provide any additional information below.
My movie folder and filename are Redemption (2013). I have unchecked the 
Original Title
option under Movie scrapers. It continues to name the movie Hummingbird in tMM 
and the NFO generated file. I don't see any other option to NOT use movie 
original titles.

hmm... i don't think this is a bug on TMM :)

On IMDB (http://akas.imdb.com/title/tt1893256/) the movie is named 
'Hummingbird' and the alternate (original) title is 'Redemtion'.
On TMDB, this is exact the other way; there it is called Redemtion, wheras the 
alternative title is Hummingbird...
And for NFO, we always put both in...

If you uncheck OriginalTitle, it does not get scraped; but if there's already 
something in there, it does not get overwritten, so the value stays there.

Did you scrape with IMDB?!
Does this explain your issue?!

The movie is known as Redemption. How do I tell TMM to use that name and NOT 
Hummingbird?

When you search for hummingbird the movie comes up as Redemption regardless of 
original title. Boxofficemojo search result shows nothing for hummingbird but 
does find a result for redemption.

I don't believe the original titles should be used to name movies but instead 
what they are known for.
TMDB search results from hummingbird list Redemption.

YAMJ finds and lists it as Redemption.

If this is intended there should be an option to use the name the movie is 
known for.

I just noticed why we're seeing different names. http://akas.imdb.com/ lists it 
as Hummingbird, but www.imdb.com lists it as Redemption. 

I can manually modify it but this is wrong.

for example the movie is "Fast & Furious 6" not "Furious 6" see here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fast_%26_Furious_6

Link from wiki:
So what gives? When contacted for clarification, Universal confirmed that the 
title card of the movie is indeed Furious 6 — but also insisted that the 
official title of the movie is Fast & Furious 6. Admittedly, there is some 
history of the film’s onscreen title card not matching the actual official 
registered title. 

People do not refer to a movie by its "Also Known As" title.

I understand some people may want to use this method but please add the option 
of using the imdb.com name and not akas.imdb.com.

For me (Austria)
http://akas.imdb.com/title/tt1893256/ and
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1893256/
lists them both as 'Hummingbird' ;)

So IMDB displays country specific pages. This is nothing new, but changed 
heavily, (they do not adhere the browser language, only on IP ranges)
The issue 'years ago' was, that the pages we scrape were not available on the 
US site, only on the international akas one.
This is the reason, why most of the tools use that akas site....

eg
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1893256/combined
Lists the title STILL as Hummingbird, even if i use an US proxy ;)

Have to check, what pages we actually scrape, and if they're available from the 
majority of countries, to use the "correct" title.
(It seems they finally managed the issue of the missing links of localized 
sites)

Thanks for reporting :)

Regardless of which one of the links you have provided when I click any one of 
them the title is Redemption.

Is this not what you're seeing even with the proxy?

language... just a little more testing :)
