Hi !
My name's Ricky and I'm french. I live in France. I use PVD since fiew time now and I've got a problem to import from imdb since my computer failed. Does somebody can help me to result this? I imported normally from imdb since I've loaded PVD. My english is not very hard and I can't find the solution on line. I've got a little question too. Why can't we imported files from imdb France, in french? I've seen some russian, german, italian sites  but any french.
Hope you answer that quickly...
Thanks

Friendly
Ricky

Welcome, Ricky.

Please describe more fully what happens when you try to import from IMDb. It might be more effective for you to answer in french—we can translate using Google Translate.

Your "computer failure" could have resulted in your configuration settings being reset to defaults. Review the settings for the IMDb plugin to ensure they are set according to your needs.

I believe that would require the development and maintenance of a separate plugin. Unfortunately, it's already a lot of work to keep the English version up-to-date with IMDb site changes, etc.

Hi Rick
First, I would like to thank you for answer so quickly.

It seems easier for me to tell you what 's happen in french but I trust in half in google translation... So let me try in english et keep google as the last solution. Well, my computer failed because of a malfunction of the hard drive. So I can keep my PVD 's inforation on an  external one. Someone repairs my pc but I've got to install PVD again. So I do! But when I entered a new movie yesterday, I tried to import with clicking on the importation list and anything 's done on my screen, no actors, directors or writers name. By the way, I've got a window with some choices like it did before, to choose the right importation. But anything works. I hope i've been clear enough (laugh).

Can you help me?

Ricky

Unless you backed-up and restored the configuration file saved in your "Application Data" folder, re-installing the program resulted in a new default configuration file. You need to configure the IMDb plugin at Preferences>Plugins. Select the plugin, click the Configure button and select the options you require. Also select the fields you require in the Overwrite fields... window.

That's easy—use Help>Check for Updates.

That's okay. I'll go for a good walk on the beach instead. ;)
