Seems like i can’t import that movie to ICM :
Not a big deal but … strange
It’s because it has no release year. If this is a film that has been released, update its release date on imdb. After that it should be importable.
Thx for the Info PA : can you tell me what are the bare minimum collums to import so i don’t make that mistake again ?
I think release year is the only condition besides having a title. Video games are also not allowed, though at times the filter for them has been broken, but I think it’s functional now. As far as I know if it has a title and year and is not a video game it should import.
The only other thing I’m aware of is a bug where miniseries episodes with no episode number don’t import.
PA, do you have any idea why this movie won’t import?
I tried to add it to a list this week, because it’s on Disney+ here, but it kept failing and still does.
I’m guessing because it’s marked as TV special.At a glance I don’t really see why that would be an issue, but I haven’t seen the parser so I don’t know what makes it hang, but given that the other known issue is also non-standard TV related I’d guess there’s something about the layout that isn’t accounted for.
It seems that several Disney+ shows will not import that are national geographic and listed at imdb as TV Specials, like these:
I wonder if the import filter can be changed to allow these?
I hope so, these are not intentionally excluded. It may take some time for @Marijn to figure out what’s causing them to fail to import, though. If I have time I’ll compare imdb pages that do and don’t import to see if I can guess at the reason, last I looked I couldn’t figure it out.
Just published a new version of the importer which should fix this. Let me know if it doesn’t
They still don’t seem to work. I imported something else after, which did work, so whatever was blocking these still is.
Ah my bad, forgot something. They should work now. Just tried https://www.imdb.com/title/tt12833014/ and it went through.

Yup, seems to work. I’ll check the others that were having trouble.
Thx to all for the repair : i’ll let you know if it works better next time i try to import 15 000 movies 
@Marijn
I can’t get this one imported. I don’t see anything weird with it.
The queue wasn’t stuck, because this was in a list of a lot of movies that had to be imported and the rest went through fine.
I’ll take a look tonight
I still cannot import films from IMDb (i.e. some titles are imported and some are not), it’s been going on for almost a year now and still has not been resolved. I see no point in using the site if the import does not work as intended i.e. I have no way of knowing which items are importing and which are not, I just see there are many that don’t import. @Marijn I can provide csv export in pm if needed.

I’m not sure if this is the right place to post this, but for some reason, I can only get three episodes of a show to add and not the remaining 9. I’m pasting a link to one that worked and one that didn’t in hopes that that will help figure out what is wrong.
I also don’t see any difference between the two episodes that would cause the latter to not be imported.
I just tried to import the McMahon episode again, and received the message that it was successfully imported, but I don’t see it on the site. Nothing seems to be wrong with the queue, as someone else just imported another film after my attempt.
Any idea @Marijn ?
