Hello
I'm Portuguese and I've used amc since long time and now I've update imdb script. Before, if I make a search of a movie in IMDB, amc puts the original name in original name field and translated in translated field. Now only the original is filled and I've always need to input manaually the translated name of themovie.
For example: movie named PUSH have Portuguese name: PUSH - OS PODEROSOS. Amc don´t fill the translated field.
Hope i've make me understand.
Please, help.
Thanks

Hi,
IMDb made several times changes about that, and its behaviour is not really easy to handle since it may change from one country to another.
Current script is version 3.79, do you have that one?

I thought that recently it was working, but it was probably an older version of the script.
There is nothing in the script to get the translated title, but as the script gets its data from the "combined" page, it cannot easily get the translated title (which is onlt on the main page and on the page listing releases & titles).
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0465580/combined for this case
That script has been so many times modified/updated, it would need a complete clean rewrite... but I do not know who will take time for that

I have the same issue...
If capitao2000 can share the revised script once it is finished, I would be grateful.
Obrigado

The script I use is the same for everyone (I've update it and don´t change anything).
