Bug Description

I have noticed recently that when I Search and find a movie using IMDB not all fields are being downloaded. I look at the web page and the info is listed. The fields are Cast and Plot sometime country as well. Here are some examples I just recently downloaded:
The Man in the Brown Suite 1989
Ulisse 1954
Agatha Christie's Marple: Greenshaw's Folly (S6E2)
And few others of Agatha Christies. I believe it may have something to do with a picture as the first field in the cast listing. As to the plot, I'am not sure. Maybe the title is now called Summary. Just guessing...

Would appreciated someone would look into the issue I'am having

Thanks

Michael,
I downloaded the fix you mention and tried it. The cast and other fields are being filled. But the Plot did not. The example I used was The Silence of the Lambs 1991. Just wanted you to know. The option I used is fill all fields and referencing the following IMDb webpage: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0102926/. It seems the storyline is not being picked up for some reason. Or should it be the description below the rating. Your the expert...

By the way thanks for the quick response, you guys are aok.

Michael hate to bug you again Ha! Ha!,

But try again what version? Just downloaded 0.13.1 from your website the DEB file and did a reinstall then tried remove and install. But it's seems it's not finding any movies in the IMDb database even though I found them previous and are in my databaase. I had a few movies with no plot and used just fill in just empty fields. Search came up with error message No Results.. In checking IMDb webpage do have the storyline included.

Do have a question. Should the about screen list the version as 0.13 or 0.13.-1? Mine says only 0.13 and so did I forget to clear some files out somewhere?

Could use ssome help with this one and thanks for your assistance.

Michael,

Did what you recommended ( Install new version and new IMDb,py file) and I consider the issue resolved. Getting fields populated when doing search either all fields or just empty ones.

Thanks for your help and the quick response.
