What do you mean by this? If Modified hasn't changed, you would have to force an update by using the "Send to" menu or run another "Mass import."

That's what I meant. :)

One additional remark regarding the imdb script: In the table in my post above the update with the imdb script always results in an update of the "modified" field. But there are also examples when this is not working: When I remove itemes from the "producer" field. the "modified" filed is always updated. But when I rerun the imdb script the "producer" field is filled properly but the "mofified" filed leaves untouched. I checked this on several movies and got on all of them the same problem.
rick.ca:
Have you included the custom [Updated] field in your database? I have, and it, of course, always changes when the AllRovi script is run. This, in turn, causes [moddate] to be updated. I have no idea why it's not updating as expected, but if running either the plugin or the script will always update it, where does a problem remain? Are there any fields not updated from external sources that do not cause [moddate] to be updated when changed?
The issue I'm seeing, BTW, seems to be sort of the opposite problem. My [moddate] seems to be updated just by putting a record into edit mode—without changing anything. This means, of course, I'm not able to replicate anything you're reporting.

Yes, I have. And this field never causes any problems. It is always updated when running the allrovi script.

I am sorry. Could you please restate your question for me? I have a problem to understand what you mean.

Yes, I discovered this, too, but only for some movies and not for all. At the "Living Daylights, The" for example, the [moddate] field is not updated when entering the edit mode.
I am stumped ???
Update: Now, I am getting officially crazy. This morning, when removing the entries from the sub-genre field for “licence to kill” in the edit mode, the [moddate] field was properly updated. But after rerunning the allrovi script, the [moddate] was not updated. I repeated these steps several times and checked carefully the [moddate] field. So, I am sure that this wasn’t an error in observation.
Now, I did this test again and now it is working properly. The [moddate] field is updated in both cases: after removing the content from the field in the edit mode and after running the script.
After this I created a new database and added as custom fields [updated] and [sub-genre]. I added the “licence to kill” movie and ran the imdb and allrovi script. Then, I removed the entries from the sub-genre field and closed the edit mode… The [moddate] field hasn’t been updated ??? The update with the allrovi script worked fine including an update of the [moddate] field. I repeated the three times and results were always the same.
I don’t see any pattern in this. I think I will throw my computer away and move into the forests.

I'm seeing a few movies that aren't getting the Characteristics info, such as Phantom Love.
