So it is working, except 'CustomRole' is not set to 'Casting by'.
It seems to me that this is set to 'IMDbCreditSubtype' instead of 'DVDProfilerCustomRole'.

PS:
The only field you used 'DVDProfilerCustomRole' is 'Co-producer', so I tried to change the value on this and it wouldn't be used there neither. So I guess this is a bug.

PPS:
Even when this behavior is wanted - I think it should use 'DVDProfilerCustomRole' at least when 'IMDbCreditSubtype' is empty.


"Other" is currently not recognized as a DVD Profiler category and that's why even your manual editing doesn't really work.

I see a lot of crew on IMDb, which has a role like 'makeup: Sigourney Weaver' or 'makeup artist: Los Angeles live action'. Unfortunately those crew-members won't be recognized.

I don't know, if it's too difficult to strip everything starting with the double-point so they could be fetched too, but it would be great.


Parsing crew is already a PITA and since I can be barely interested in who directed the movie I never put an overly effort into crew. For me it's like "Who the frak cares who did Sigourney's hairdo?"

Would it be a big problem to include it?

It is working apart from custom-roles, which are filled with 'wrong' data from your xml - and this will also happen with known DVD Profiler categories.

Well, as I said: it would be great, if it's not too difficult.

That's the part I probably didn't understand. I just parsed "This Means War".

The config file states:

Quote:

    <CreditType>
      <IMDbCreditType>Produced by</IMDbCreditType>
      <DVDProfilerCreditType>Production</DVDProfilerCreditType>
      <CreditSubtypeList>
...
        <CreditSubtype>
          <IMDbCreditSubtype>co-producer</IMDbCreditSubtype>
          <DVDProfilerCreditSubtype>Custom</DVDProfilerCreditSubtype>
          <DVDProfilerCustomRole>Co-Producer</DVDProfilerCustomRole>
        </CreditSubtype>
      </CreditSubtypeList>
    </CreditType>


So it says fill the IMDb role of "Produced by" / "Co-Producer" into the DVDP role of "Production" / "Other" (The UI says "Other", the XML must say "Custom") / "Co-Producer"

and that's exactly what it does:

Quote:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<CrewInformation xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
  <Title>Das gibt Ärger (2012)</Title>
  <Credits>
    <Credit FirstName="Ross" MiddleName="" LastName="Fanger" BirthYear="6771" CreditType="Production" CreditSubtype="Custom" CreditedAs="" CustomRole="Co-Producer" />
  </Credits>
</CrewInformation>

Yes, but it does so because you've checked 'Schreibe individuelle Rolle groß'. I've tried to set 'DVDProfilerCustomRole' to 'Co  -  Producer' and still I got 'Co-Producer'.

I still am not able to see the problem.

I added this to my Transformation.xml:

Quote:

    <CreditType>
      <IMDbCreditType>Stunts</IMDbCreditType>
      <DVDProfilerCreditType>Other</DVDProfilerCreditType>
      <CreditSubtypeList>
        <CreditSubtype>
          <IMDbCreditSubtype>stunt coordinator</IMDbCreditSubtype>
          <DVDProfilerCreditSubtype>Custom</DVDProfilerCreditSubtype>
          <DVDProfilerCustomRole>The Fall Guy</DVDProfilerCustomRole>
        </CreditSubtype>
      </CreditSubtypeList>
    </CreditType>


Now I parse This Means War:

I have this in my Transformation.xml:
Quote:
    <CreditType>
      <IMDbCreditType>Casting by</IMDbCreditType>
      <DVDProfilerCreditType>Other</DVDProfilerCreditType>
      <CreditSubtypeList>
        <CreditSubtype>
          <IMDbCreditSubtype />
          <DVDProfilerCreditSubtype>Custom</DVDProfilerCreditSubtype>
          <DVDProfilerCustomRole>Casting by</DVDProfilerCustomRole>
        </CreditSubtype>
      </CreditSubtypeList>
    </CreditType>

As you see IMDbCreditSubtype is empty. That's because of this:


The result is:


De-selecting 'Retain custom roles' would bring up the correct custom role for casting, but I would lose all other ones.

So, what I'd like to see, is the use of DVDProfilerCustomRole, when IMDbCreditSubtype is empty and DVDProfilerCreditSubtype is 'Custom'.

I don't like it - I love it!

I thought about getting just 'Makeup', but getting 'Makeup: Sigourney Weaver' is even better.

Thanks a lot.

I'm not sure if it's a bug or if I am just doing something wrong:

I added 'M.D.' to 'Known Lastname Suffixes' and even restarted CCE2, but still I get this:

I'd expected to get Harry//Demopoulos M.D.

This is taken from Cobra.

Ugh, this is tricky.

You probably have the option set to split "J.K." into first and middle name.

So when that's set the name looks something like

Harry - Demopoulos - M. - D.

And then it checks the "D." and the "M." as possible last name suffix seperately.

I'll look into it.

Don't sweat it, t's already solved.

At the same time I cleaned up the KnownSuffixes.txt a bit, throwing out all teh entries that can't happen anyway.

New version comes this evening.

Better parsing of "Crew Role: Location Unit"

Could you also add this one:
