Yes, because the external program must first download all the information from a webpage to a temp file so that it can then be added to the database for a particular movie. Because more than information for a particular movie on web pages and is written there, it takes longer for the external program to passes it, as previously mentioned.

Ok.
Is it possible to hide the flickering windows or run them minimized? Very annoying when you want wo work with another window/software while importing. Even when I switch to a full screen game, it jumps back to the desktop ;)
Also the PVD window gets bigger and overlaying the taskbar while importing.

unfortunately not because the PVD makes the launch. The MOD tries to hide it and recover the focus of windows PVD, but it can not be done more.

As Ivek23 responded, the IMDB script can arrive to download to 6 pages per movie. In addition, IMDB increase the response time when it detects multiple queries of an IP user.
Have you tried the TheMovieDB script? This free provider is specially designed for this type of programs: download only the precise information in text mode, so it works very fast.

Ivek23 you had done an extraordinary work. It will take me some weeks to put in in a new MOD version.
I have one question in order to set un standart for ~genre~ / ~category~ / ~tags~. I try to summary:
~genre~ = Present as "genre" in IMDB, TheMovieDB, FilmAffinity,AllMovie
~tags~ = Present as "keywords" in IMDB, AllMovie, TheMovieDB
~category~ = Not present in IMDB neither TheMovieDB but
FilmAffinity have the information "Genre1.Genre2 | Category1.Category2"
AllMovie have the information Theme1 | Theme2 | Theme3 | Theme4 |
Are you agree?
I have other questions over the custom fields but I must study one by one.

Yes, correct reasoning.

The same for this.

For this, I can not say anything because I do not use it.

Yes, but there are several of these categories under different names. It will be necessary to list the names of these, so that I can answer this in more detail.
