I suggest you scape a new movie, import it into Plex, if there are no actor images, then make a Copy of the nfo and move it to a safe place, Then rescrape actors and import again into plex.
If the actor images appear, can you compare the original nfo and the recently updated nfo to see what differences there are.

If there are differences, please zip them, upload somewhere and PM me a link please. 

I did what you asked.  The first scrape on the NFO looks like this:
 
<actor>
        <id>0000000</id>
        <name>Patton Oswalt</name>
        <role>Remy (voice)</role>
        <thumb>
        </thumb>
        <order>0</order>
    </actor>


Upon scraping the actor roles specifically, the NFO turns to this:


<actor>
<id>0010872</id>
<name>Patton Oswalt</name>
<role>Remy (voice)</role>
<thumb>http://image.tmdb.org/t/p/original/dq3uNmTB7r8XTtadV3OD3N7LqV6.jpg</thumb>
<order>0</order>
</actor>


I tested it out again with another new movie. Same thing happened above. If you still need the actual NFO, let me know and I'll send them to you.

Odd, I would check the Actors tab in Preferences. I only have Save actor thumb to .Actors folder Selected.

Yup, that's all I have selected as well. Upon scraping, it does create the .Actors folder and there are the actor thumbs present in there. The only issue is that it's not populating(?) the NFO correctly I guess?

is it possible to add a fallback to English, when a TV show is not found in another language on TVDB?

If you for example take this show https://www.thetvdb.com/series/silicon-valley/seasons/all and change language to German the last seasons episode names will be blank. If I scrape this with Media Companion it would be nice if it would fallback to English, if there is no German information available.

MC uses the Language you initially set to scrape the series, without fallback. This is so Users know when info is not present.

We suggest you pay it forward, sign up with TheTvDb, and add the missing information for the episodes so more users of TheTVDb benefit.
You may also note there is no German info for the Three specials.

I agree with you that it would be better if I add this information in German language. However there is currently no official German episode name. Same goes for example for Suits.

I have mixed languages for some shows. New seasons which are not yet available in German I collect in English. So for me a fallback or at least a "per season" language would be great. I think kodis scraper has something like this as optional setting. So users that don't like the fallback could just disable it, but for me it would help a lot. If you don't agree with that, I think I'll have to life with it and scrape everything in English language only.

I have an issue for a while now; my apologies for not reporting it earlier.  I am using the latest version, 64 bit.

If I add a new show with Medusa (sickbeard fork), and then do "Search Roots for new tv shows" with MC, the show is found, the nfo created by Medusa is read ok by MC, and the show is put into an "unverified" state.  In the past (several versions ago, I cannot remember from which version on I am having the issue), I usually did a "Rescrape TV Show" in MC, and MC went out to the TVDB and got the info for the show and rewrote the NFO.  

The issue I have now is that when MC rescrapes the tv show, it writes incomplete info to the NFO, specifically, the tv show title is left blank, and the show does not appear in my list of shows any more.I have to go in and edit the NFO and re-add the tv show title, and then do a "Refresh all" for MC to show the tv show in the list again.

Any ideas on why this might be happening? Any additional information that you would like me to provide? Please let me know.  Thanks.

Regards,

Bart

I'm assuming this is the reason I get the error below

No won't be adding support for fallback to episodes at present, I suggest you translate the English title to the closest match in German and add to TheTvdb.
The title can always be altered later down the time when the Scheduled title becomes available. Something is better than nothing.
