IMDb has been changing the way things are displaying (for me) on the website and one of those things is āYour Ratingsā. Not sure if the output CSV file has changed though and thatās causing this problem or if something else is acting up.
also tried IE11/iCM2 - Whoops!

The issue came up since IMDb changed the display of the ratings page, the exported file also dwindled to about half the size it used to be. So Iām assuming the way the export file is built has been changed drastically, hence why icheckmovies wonāt recognize the new file.
Iām not really adding anything extra to xianjiroās post, just trying to bring up the issue and let you know youāre not the only one
Iām missing something here. My IMDb Ratings page is the correct url. But when I āexportā this list, I donāt end up with a file that I can insert into in the iCM import form, just a āratingsā spreadsheet. I havenāt done an export/import for a couple of years and it was different back then. What am I missing here?
Itās just āratings.csvā. The IMDb page has āExportā at the top (used to be"export this list" at the bottom of the page"). End up with the spreadsheet. I see no way to create an actual file in the format needed by iCM. I feel like the steps are obvious but Iām not seeing them.
ratings.csv is the correct file you need, now when on iCM use Import IMDb ratings, then āBrowseā under āIMDb ratings fileā and pick the ratings.csv file you have downloaded from IMDb and let iCM do the rest
I may have found a bug in IMDb. The ratings list says it is set to Public. But in the list settings, it is saying Private, whether itās set to Public or Private. Now I have to report the bug to IMDb. Not optimistic.
Youāre right @benhere. The upload was working yesterday, but itās not anymore. It seems IMDb went back to the old spreadsheet for ratingsā¦ And that would be the reason why itās not working anymore.
Iām saying this because the size of my export file is back to what it used to be before the change.
Going around with an IMDb agent about the Public/Private issue. Theyāve confirmed that Iām not an idiot so now theyāve escalated it to the āstaffā. Still not hopeful.
I seem to remember that early on, iCM just used the url of the IMDb ratings page to directly grab the data. It saved the tedious step of having to Export the list out of IMDb. I assume thereās a reason iCM stopped doing it that way.
Oh dearā¦ so they went back to the old format?! That explains why I was able to export the .csv from IMDb today in the first place, lol. I submitted a ticket the other day as I was unable to export at allā¦ they said they were looking into itā¦
