	The Movie Database Python scraper is developed and maintained by Team Kodi~~.

	If the scraper is unable to find the correct movie, you can perform a search using either the IMDB or TMDB ID's~~. This may be a more convenient method than using a '''[[NFO_files#Parsing_nfo\|Parsing NFO file]]'''~~.		This scraper uses either the filename or the folder name (depending on the setting ''[[Adding_video_sources#Set_Content\|Movies are in separate folders that match the movie title]]'') as the search string to lookup the title at TheMovieDB site.

			If you are experiencing problems scraping the correct title, there are 3 methods available to force the scraper to the correct title.
