themoviedb.org is a free and open movie database. It's completely user driven by people like you. TMDb is currently used by millions of people every month and with their powerful API, it is also used by many popular media centers like Kodi to retrieve Movie Metadata, Posters and Fanart to enrich the user's experience.
Installing

This scraper is broken. It has been deprecated for v19 and later. Please switch to Add-on:TMDb_TV_Shows for TV Shows and Add-on:The_Movie_Database_Python for movies. Unfortunately there is no replacement scraper for v18 and earlier, so we are forced to leave this scraper in the repository. If you are using an older version of Kodi, you should update to the latest version and use the newer Python scrapers. |
