My question is, if it is possible to recive the german titel from imdb instead of the original titel?
I know that there is the ofdb scraper but the searchegine of ofdb ist realy stupid
so if u scan a whole folder you wount find many right titels in the Libary.
imdbs searchresults are almost 90% right so for me imdbscrapper with germantitels would be the best.

thx in advance

try changing the <title> expression in the scraper under get details to something along the lines of...

&quot;transl&quot;&gt;([^&lt;]*)\[de]&lt;/i&gt;

You will need to sort out alternative title "fallback" if [de] translated title does not exist...

But a heads up for you to get started.

may another way would be to give imdb scrapper the option to make folder name to title and just recive the rest from imdb
