extract english title #170

Closed mam4dali closed 5 years ago

I need to extract the English title and I've used this code Because origin_title (), title () does not specify which English title is

tboothman commented 5 years ago

As specified in the readme https://github.com/tboothman/imdbphp#configuration you set the language in the config and then title() is the title in the language you've chosen and orig_title() is the title in the language the film was made in

What explanation would you have liked and where could it have been to make this clearer? I think the explanation in the config class is pretty good https://github.com/tboothman/imdbphp/blob/master/src/Imdb/Config.php#L31 The explanation of what orig_title is could be made clearer and specified exactly what it means https://github.com/tboothman/imdbphp/blob/master/src/Imdb/Title.php#L305 Would that have helped?

Does not work in new versions So I tried to write another function

Hi, could you give us a couple of titles (preferably their ID) in case there really should be English titles in origin_title(). Sometimes IMDb geo-location kicks in before your preferred settings in $language and it dosen't matter how much you try to change it.

It will also be helpful to know where your server are hosted. And by where I mean country and not company. If it's your local machine, what country you live in.
