The IMPawards plugin hasn't worked in at least a year. I don't know why it's getting no love. The Amazon plugins were fixed not so long ago. I don't know what the problem is now, but I don't really care. It's posters aren't significantly better than those already available at IMDb. I explained here why I believe modifying TMDb plugin to get just the default poster (instead of all of them) would be the best solution for posters. Since the time available to maintain poster plugins is obviously limited, I think it would better to spend it on TMDb and abandon the rest.

The AMC plugin works fine for me. It's not very fast, so 1400 movies would take a while. In testing, it did stop to ask about a duplicate movie, which seemed odd since I was importing to an empty database. But when I answered that dialog, it finished and displayed the results. Is it possible the same happened to you, but the dialog was hidden behind the main window? Also, did you check the plugin configuration to ensure the fields were properly mapped? This could also have been the problem with the Excel and CSV plugins.

Well I didn't do all 1400. I just did the "B"'s section which was 100 or so...if that. It did ask me about duplicates...however, it wasn't odd since I have two movies called "Black Sheep". But then nothing happened when it was done. Just the same movies which I had already added manually. The one that seemed to work...somewhat is the MS Excel file. At least it added stuff. But it wasn't enough that it would help versus adding them manually.

CSV and Excel import plugins also work—if configured properly.

dekiscool:
To a certain extent, the Excel files have worked...but I still have to go back and fix stuff after. Some will come up just as the ID number while others will have the correct title. So I am just going letter by letter. So B...then C...etc. The CSV files don't import at all. Not sure what is up with that.

rick.ca:
If you believe you've configured the plugins correctly, please post a sample of each type of file.
