Hi All, I've added a new filter (tv_tmdb) to augment xml files with data from The Movie Database (https://themoviedb.org/) This is a replacement for tv_imdb which augmented listings with The Internet Movie Database (IMDb) data, but which data was frozen in December 2017 and so is increasingly out-of-date. The new filter works like the old one - except it uses an online API instead of an offline database - so should be familiar if you've used tv_imdb. If you get a chance I'd appreciate if you could give it a try before the next project release. You will need to sign-up to TMDB and get an API key (free). See the POD for details. Thanks, Geoff
