DVDpedia & IMDb: Some fields missing

Post by Rigido »

Hi Devs,
even if there was no Italian translation for "Cinematography by" and "Music by" fields I added custom fields and used them to download such info.
Today I tried to add 4 new BR with brand new DVDpedia (5.1.7 Beta 51) and discovered that it didn't download custom fields nor "Produced by", maybe a field translation issue?
No messages on the Console.

Any hint?

PS: Finally iSight is working great on my late 2009 27" ;)

There was an update to DVDpedia for the IMDb, do please download the beta again (I forgot to update the beta number). The custom field name should be "Cinematographer" and do make sure to have "Cinematographer" checked in the preferences for the IMDb search plugin under Preferences -> Sites -> IMDb -> Gear Icon. All the issues with producer and other credits should also be fixed in the beta version.

Thank you Conor, it worked! :)
Just two questions:
1. Is it possible, in case the user has the correct custom field, to NOT add Composer (or Cinematographer) to the Cast?
2. Will custom field be ever translatable?

Thanks.

1. I'll look to see if I can make this an option.

2. Unlikely as then there is no way to specify what information should go into that custom field, when the original site is only in English.
