Manually deleting them by date doesn't work because all folders show the new date, how (in Windows 10) would I organize by size or some other method to delete them? (this would still be a manual deletion nightmare)
Again presently 80% of my movies are structured like this: F:\Movies\Apollo 13 - 1995\Apollo 13 - 1995.avi\1. What would you recommend?

You say the critics consensus data has been dead for a long time?... however, I am getting it to scrape via 'Universal Movie Scraper' once I enter my OMDB API. I've also proven the critics consensus matches exactly what is detailed on the Rotten Tomatoes website.

Also when I export the video library to xml using Kodi it writes the critics consensus to the NFO in the 'outline' section. Please see NFO link below:

I am hoping you will be able to help me with 2 things?

I use MQ 7 Mod skin and I am trying to get the 'Critic consensus' from Rotten tomatoes to show on the Dialogue page. I have had it working before using Universal Scraper however it doesn't scrape other things correctly.

Is there are way to scrape the 'Critic Consensus' from RT? I have input my OMDB API so I am already scraping the RT Ratings using MC. The 'Critic Consensus' needs to be in the 'Outline' section of the movie NFO.

Quote:=11pt
Secondly is there a way to input a custom prefix for the MPAA certificate? I know there is an option for 'scraping full cert' e.g. UK:15 however this shows as 'United Kingdom:15' in the NFO. Therefore, I have to change the text in the 'IncludesVariables.xml' from 'UK:15' to 'United Kingdom:15'. It would be great to just be able to scrape the info to match what is in the 'IncludesVariables.xml'...in MQ 7 Mod case 'UK:15'

Thanks!

Quote:The skin should be able to interpret the data correctly and not vice versa. The easiest way is to add in the IncludesVariables.xml a few lines of code about the desired spellings to interpret.
Alternatively, in Media Companion, in the TableView -> select column to view -> certificate -> sort. ... with not too much effort to make a bulk rename.

Quote:I have about 4 duplicate entries for certain movies in the list.  I've tried to remove the movie folders that I have set up to scan, thinking it would clear the cache and then re-add the movie folders, but the same issue presents itself, duplicate entries.  I will highlight all the duplicates, select "rescrape all" the duplicates will disappear but will re-appear on the next loading of the program.  
I've also have movies that are listed, that have been "changed" and the entries are blank as well.  No matter what I do, I can't get them to show up in the program.  Trying to rescrape these missing movies will result in an application crash.  Trying to open the folder from within the program results in an application crash, etc..etc.

Quote:Also, where in the heck is the option to disable the movies from being put into collection folders?  I thought I had found that particular option (I don't want collection folders) but a rescrape caused movies to be placed into collection folders again... lol

As for the fanart tab it shows my fanart stored in the main movie folder on the right and the download selections on the left... any way to actually show all the 'extra' fanart I have in my extra fanart folder to make it easier to delete or swap out?

Yes, I see tomatoConsensus is available on OMDbAPi

I will see about adding this option to Media Companion to store this in the Outline tag.

I've deleted the NFOs where there were duplicates.  Selected the "Search for new movies" they all came back up duplicate again and one or two of them that are dupes, won't even show anything in the main window of the program.  Not sure what the deal is?

Your other suggestions worked fine however.

In the movie list and in the bold title above 'original title' next to the save button MC3 adds either a random date or usually 1901.
How do I get rid of this and have MC3 ignore the fact that the title isn't in any online database?  I have dates in the Premiered field and don't see anywhere else to enter a date.
If I change the date in parenthesis manually it just comes right back.

Also trying to fill the voids in the artwork department.
I don't see any way to mass scrape individual fanart.tv art. ... for example if I have a 100 movies missing clearlogos... no option under 'rescrape specific' for this individual art... just rescrape fanart.tv.
If I do this is it only going to look for what is missing or for everything? I don't want to rescape stuff I already have especially if I may have chosen specific artworks over an automatic download.


EDIT>>>> ok, so apparantly the wrong dates are being caused by wrongly scraped movies. Fixing in the change movie tab is taking care of that but what do I do about movies not in any online database?

Select a movie you have manually added, and in MC right click and select Edit Movie (Alternative)
Here you can manually change the Year.
Click Save and all should be good again

As for the fanart.TV, at present MC can't rescrape specific fanart.tv images. That is due to when we do scrape, We get a list of all the images, no matter whether clearlogo, discart or landscape etc.
But, MC should not replace any existing fanart.tv image when you do the Batch Rescrape.

Or, you can do it the manual way, via the Fanart.TV tab in Media Companion.

 That worked for the year, thank you.
On another note... If I do a mass rescrape for a specific field like premiere. I'm missing this for hundreds of movies.
I have it scrape and then it goes through all of the movies and when its done some are scraped but most are not.
I can do as little as 10 and it may only scrape 7 or 8.
then if I scrape the ones it missed individually it gets the data...
Any idea why it would be doing this?

Your option would be to change the folder renaming removing the %N\
This will mean it won't create a collection folder.
In mediacompanion go to the sets filter, selector a set, right click and select rename folders.
This will rename the movies out of the collection folder and into your root movie folder
