Hi, ran into a problem with scraping metadata on a Kodi device I use to stream 3D movies. I have unique titles for the file names, but the metadata displayed from TMDB seems incorrect. The movie that I'm having trouble with is Guardians of the Galaxy, I have both first film (2014) and GOTG Vol. 2 (2017), when trying to match the files to the TMDB metadata I see the listing as:
Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2014)
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (2017)
So my movie data scraper will only match GOTG Vol. 2 for both films. Not sure what I can do to correct.

What are the titles of your files ?
And if so, what is the folder title for these files ?
What language ISO are you using for the API Request? en-US?
There are 3 Movies from this collection here in the Database.
See here https://www.themoviedb.org/collection/284433-guardians-of-the-galaxy-collection?language=en-US
Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)
https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/118340-guardians-of-the-galaxy?language=en-US
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017)
https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/283995-guardians-of-the-galaxy-2?language=en-US
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 = No expected release date
https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/447365-guardians-of-the-galaxy-3?language=en-US
There is no Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2014) . Vol. 2 only in 2017.
And there is no Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (2017) - Vol. 3 only without expected release date.
So I repeat the question:
What language ISO are you using for the API Request?

All films are English. The issue is resolved, although I don't know exactly what the cure is. I installed an add-on to the kodi device called Extended Info, and things generally started working properly after that. One of the experts for the device stated that the add-on would not fix that issue, observation states otherwise.
