DVDpedia Version 5.15; IMDB Reversed Credits

Post by berkleeboy »

Since updating to 5.15, IMDB title searches return reverse credits; Column:Name lists roles and Column:Roles lists actors. This is also true for the "Starring" field in that the character's names are listed.

This bug is not terribly helpful in doing a search by actor! Has anyone else reported this problem??

Can you give me an example of a movie where this happens please? So far I haven't been able to repeat the problem here, the roles and names come in just as they should, under the correct heading.

I can send you examples of this when I've got database access again, after checking if the current beta (last updated 2-Apr) makes any difference (like beta 45 did for recent IMDb issues; I'm still running 5.1.5).

Here's a simple example of the IMDb credits snafu that happened updating Thor's entry with IMDb data (0800369) after adding it with Amazon US data (B0034G4P80) using DVDpedia 5.1.5:

Doing the same using DVDpedia Beta 45 (2-Apr build) produces desired results:

So the Beta resolves this issue for me.

Thank you for testing that out and testing the beta for the fix.
