Title: Missing actor photos.
Post by: jon40084 on October 14, 2011, 11:17:06 pm

Hi, I had tried out an earlier version of PVD but found that the actor photo's didn't appear. I've just upgraded to 0.9.9.21 to find that the same problem still exists. I've updated the plugins too.

I'm sure this must have been discussed before and I can't be the only person with this problem. It's such a shame as the application is fantastic.

Please help - as I say I'm sure this must have been resolved.

Many thanks
regards Jon

How do you add those photos? Manually or using a plugin (which one)?

Hi,
I assumed it would do it automatically when it imports the "person" data.

It's using IMDB for Movie data with Amazon for covers.

You need to switch to the people database and run the plugin for the people separately... Movie plugins do not retrieve photos.
