different movies with the same name problem!

Post by fireheart2008 »

some movies have the same title, however they are entirely different movies
like
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0944834/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1
and
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1290472/?ref_=fn_al_tt_3

this will result in a mistake in the year and the rating while renaming

so is there anyway to avoid this situation??

So what is the issue?

Name+Year is unique just fine. If you only got the name then FileBot will ask you if it's Movie 2001 or Movie 2002.

well in other movies it did ask about what year this movie is
but in this particular movie , it ignored
i solved it by adding the year manually before using filebot and it worked fine

thanks for your reply

Then it probably just can't find any of the two movies. IMDb search is very limited. TheMovieDB works much better.
