Beauty and the Beast not scraping correctly
posted by aggressivesk8er_GrindSTAFFMOD on September 22, 2019 at 8:46 PM
So I was adding this movie to my library in OSMC. I have it titled on my hard drive as "Beauty and the Beast (1991)" It is scraping in "Brittanica's Beauty and the Beast (1991)" instead. How is the best way to point my scraper to the correct movie? I tried some of the alternate titles I saw listed, and none of those are working either, it still goes back to the Brittanica movie. When I try to manually change the movie the scraper should point to, the only options listed are the Brittanica Beauty and the Beast, and the 2017 live-action Beauty and the Beast

+1 using Plex Media Server to scrape - exact same results.

Same problem here with KODI, i refreshed the content and two options come up
Britannica's Beauty and the Beast (1991) Beauty and the Beast (2012)
Looks like the re-release in 3D in 2012 pops up instead of the original 1991 date, i refreshed with Kodi and picked up the 2012 one and it gets the proper cover and info, maybe setting the date to 2012 may help you guys??

It's not just Beauty and the Beast; it seems to be happening when the release date(s) are not congruous to the year provided at the header, or at least, the scraper is prioritizing the release date information in lieu of the header year. This also happened with films like Duel (1971) and The Hunter (2011), where their releases don't match up unless you research the other possible release years under their page and match accordingly.
