Well, Happy New Year!

Is there a limit of 10 Entrys being parsed by CCE2 for each category?

Just as an example and because it has other weird things happening, too: The Substance (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt17526714/), look at the additional crew:

Christian Agullo - double / stand-in
He (and a lot of other people) are parsed twice (once as double, once as stand-in), I guess this has to do with the Slash / ?! It isn't that important, but in this case it might cause other people not being parsed at all:

Next in the list shoud be Anne-Laure Barabé Martignac, but Victoria Brun and Emmanuelle Estourare are put 'in front of' her. The order doesn't really matter for me, but it is weird, isn't it?

Now the real problem: Nobody after Emmanuelle Estour is parsed at all. So, Mathieu Gorges, Louise Greggory, etc, etc, are all ignored by CCE2. I think CCE2 only made 10 Entrys (including the Splits after /)  and then stopped for this Section.

Next is 'Thanks' and here for sure only the first 10 Entrys are parsed. After Amelia Granger nobody is.

PS: How can I ignore Categorys like 'Thanks' for example? I wrote Thanks, 'Thanks' and "Thanks" into CCE2's IgnoreCustomInIMDbCategory.txt and IgnoreIMDbCategoryInOther.txt, but that doesn't seem to do the trick. Carsten's Example in the 'Read Me' with Transportation Department also doesn't work for me.

I am putting way more time into this Cinematographer thing than it is worth After all, the People are pasted into DVDP, just into the wrong category, but with a 'correct' custom role.

Just in case anybody is as @nal about it, as me:

My advice is to just check if the Cinematographers are in the correct category before pasting into DVDP. If not, change it manually with CCE2's drop down menus. Not a big deal with movies.

With Series, if there is a problem, try to removing the 'Start with' checkmarks in the Director Transformation Settings and see if it turns out OK. CCE2 doesn't open the Browser for every episode again, so it way faster than the first run! So far it didn't mess up any Director credits for me, but again, I guess Carsten used the 'start with' option for a reason.

Don't use the Re-Apply Setting and Filter Button Button on the Bottom if you're making changes to the IMDB to DVDP Transformation Settings. Use the normal 'Scan Page' Button!

I was probably wrong about IMDB having changed many DoP to 'just' Cinematographer. Sometimes CCE2 just defaults to DoP, even if the Cinematographer isn't credited as such, here for example:
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0130236/

Edit: Minor but easy thing - adding 'cinematography' -> 'Cinematographer' to the Tranformations roles in 'Cinematography by' prevents custom role 'cinematography'.

Edit 2: Casting is effed up, too, at least if the imdb profile creator was lazy. The 'role' then often is just a short for a country like de, us, gb, uk  or whatever. (example: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt22488654/) It is fixable but a bit of work:

Create 'Casting' category, create entry 'de' (for example) -> other > Casting Germany or just 'Casting'

Seems like you already added the most important changes of these new imdbe versions of Director & Writer credits?!

Everything I found during testing. Let me know if there are more headlines I'm missing.



There is a problem with Director(s) of Cinematography (edit, I meant Director of Photography). I think it has to do with the "start with" checkmark you've set in the director & directed by categories. Removing the checkmark seems to fix it, but I guess you checked it for a reason?!

Perhaps moving the Cinamatography category up above the Directors in the IMDbToDVDProfilerCrewRoleTransformation.xml file could fix it, too?! But I am too lazy (tired) now to mess anymore with it. Wasted most of the night already on it

It seems like most of these DoP credits were recently changed to just Cinematographer anyway, here are two examples wich still have some.

Looks very similar to the problem I've had a couple of weeks ago with Windows UAC & the EditIMDbToDVDProfilerCrewRoleTransformation.exe. Opening the .exe from file explorer once fixed it. But I don't see a CCE2 Browser .exe

This did not fix it either. The program locks up.

I don't really know how Carsten does it, but I guess 'his' Browser isn't really a browser but makes some kinda use of MS' IE or Edge. I have found a temp folder called CCE2browser on my HD. There is no executable in it, but a Readme file from MS Edge.

So, just a very wild guess but maybe your security settings in the MS Browsers are too high or maybe you got rid of them somehow?!

All the weird problems I had with the last couple of versions of CCE2 were either related to MS UAC or my Norton Antivir.

Right now nothing is working for me anymore. Not even Episode Lists or Soundtrack credits like the last time.
