Use different "imdb" engines according to filename detected language

[Omertron]

Original issue 641 created by Omertron on 2009-03-21T14:37:04.000Z:

1. Have a file named in italian with ITA tag
2. Refresh library
3. The file is found by IMDB and added with english title
4. All movies are listed with english title (I suppose that if I use the
   german engine, then all movies have german title)

I have films in many languages and want them listed
The point is that I don't know the original title often and don't know
where to find it. Scrolling all movies is not really an option.

It would be very nice to use say IMDB.com for english movies, OFDB.de for
german. Like some sort of option to associate language to movie database.

(I have version 1.0.15 on XP)

I agree with this suggestion. I use YAMJ (last release) on NMT A-110, I quite new to
this project, so maybe I don't know all the options.
Anyway, I've tried to use the italian language plugin (from FilmUp), but it doesn't
have all the movies, it never find a fanart and the IMDB rating is often wrong; on
the other hand the default IMDB has always the english title and plot.
If it were the chance to select an IMDB engine (from prefereces or from filename), it
would be great!

The fanart for the FilmUpIT plugin has just been fixed. All plugins fall back to IMDB
if they can't find the movie on the local language version of the site.

Good work, great!
Anyway I didn't explain myself well before. I read some of other issues and I found
one (n. 1116) that is exactly what I would like and others with similar suggestions,
so I'll check up on them.
Thanks for your works!

Well, it's not true that if the language plugin can't find the movie it fall back to
IMDB. For example the FilmUpIT make a query from the filename and select the first
result.
With this behaviour 'L'infernale Quinlan' (Touch of Evil - 1958), become 'Christine,
la macchina infernale' (Christine - 1983).
Is it an issue or normal behaviour? How can I fix it up?

The issue you are experiencing is that you are a human and can see that the film is
wrong. However, YAMJ will accept what that site says is the match for the filename
that it's searching for. If there was no match found, then it would default back to IMDB

If this returns the wrong information then you can use a NFO file to point to the
correct film on FilmUp.IT

I know, but if there's no page on FilmUp.IT of the movie I search, sometimes the
query on FilmUp gives wrong results.
I always use NFO files; if I find the movie on FilmUp.IT I write the relative url
otherwise I write the IMDB url.
I read in the log file that YAMJ search always either FilmUp ID or IMDB ID, so I
thought that it would get the informations from the url that is written in NFO files.
Is there an option to set up this behaviour?

Ok, so please log that as a separate issue so it can be tracked and fixed.

What about according langage detected (EN, FR, DE and so on) YAMJ will search the language ?
