The Movie Database Support

С недавних пор несколько фильмов из моей коллекции стали неправильно распознаваться, например Легион 2004 года (Casshern) написанный как "Легион (2004).mkv" распознаётся как Легион 2010 года! Прежнее работавшее название "Casshern (2004).mkv" перестало как либо скрейпиться. И такое я замечаю со многими фильмами (хотя все корректно записаны, как на сайте в поиске, и копирование записанного названия и вставка в поиск сайта выдаёт корректный фильм).
Kodi 18.8, скрейпер The Movie Database.
Recently, several films from my collection have become incorrectly recognized, for example the 2004 Legion (Casshern) written as "Legion (2004) .mkv" is recognized as the 2010 Legion! The former working name "Casshern (2004) .mkv" has ceased to be scraped somehow. And I notice this with many films (although all are correctly recorded, as on the site in the search, and copying the recorded title and pasting into the site search gives the correct movie).

This is weird.
If the film was already in your collection, then the TMDb ID of the film should already be stored in .NFO or Kodi.
But, if you lost or deleted this information and are therefore making a new scraper using the titles, you need to post here the API Request that is being sent to the TMDb server.
How to do this must be very difficult, the better you will be to explain your problem in the Forum of this Addon on the Kodi website.

And maybe it’s interesting that you read this topic, although it’s not exactly your problem, I think.

EDIT
Is this the movie you posted as an example of an error?
https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/60627-challenge-of-the-super-friends-attack-of-the-legion-of-doom
Or perhaps this:

Ok, i'll try it now, thanks - but they (kodi) took info from tmdb, also when i make few changes (for example - new translate to films) and re-scrape Kodi - new information successfully updates on most films (serials were scraped with thetvdb scraper)
Yes, films were in collection, but i have 4 different Kodi installations (game pc, tv pc, pc in bedroom, kitchen tv thru android smart player) and when i reinstalled Kodi on game pc - new info were so different accordingly to old scrapes, there why i make post here first.

Film in my base is https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/11662-casshern, but instead of it i receive info for https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/22894-legion
Both of them in Russian called Legion, and before this trouble i just wrote an "Casshern (2004) .mkv" and everything worked fine, before last day.

Hmm, if association stored in .nfo files, maybe i can make corrections in .nfo files manually, i need to try it...

My friend, you are very brave.
Having 4 Kodi installations, in the same house, on 4 different devices, is only for the strongest.

I personally am not a Kodi user.
But for my collection I use a program called MediaElch that was developed to scraper and feed Kodi data. Synchronizes with Kodi.
It makes the data scrapers, stores it in an .nfo file in each movie folder, and has a simple and clean data editing interface.
Its scenario, with 4 Kodis, is complex.
It would work better, I think, if all your movies are on a server or PC, and your other 3 Kodis were looking for the movies and data on the same server or PC.
Perhaps, it is interesting to know.

Exactly my case. Yes, all my films and serials stored in one place, and your soft is a new hope for me, cause i can make 10-20-30 nfo files for my unrecognizing films (i already try it with Casshern - and it works properly), but making nfo for serials, where nfo file need to create for all episodes separately... it is not hard when TV Show contains 10-20 episodes, but what if TV show is Simpsons?! I hope your recommendation will help me with my cases =)

It will certainly help.
MediaElch can fetch data and images from a variety of sources.
I personally prefer it here, the TMDb.
And create .nfo with that data. Movies or TV Show (Series, Season and Episode).
Therefore, the manual edits you will eventually need to make are very few.

Good luck and good work. :-)

In fact, I got to know TMDb through MediaElch.
So instead of just adding the correct data to my collection, I learned how to add the data to TMDb and then do the scraper.
So my work can be enjoyed by other users.
