DVDpedia: IMDB and TMDB search cannot be selected anymore

Post by snilles »

My DVDpedia version was just upgraded to 7.0 and Beta 301.
Don't really know how that happend, cause I don't recall doing it manually.

Anyway, main problem is that I don't see IMDB and TMDB in the movie search anymore, nor can I select them in the settings.
I still see them in my 6.2.1. version.

Would be great if you could help.

In Preferences > General > Check for updates automatically is properly ticked.

Please try some or all of these Pedia Maintenance Practices

Thx for your feedback.

I disabled "Check for updates automatically".

Then I tried this a couple of times, always the same behavior, it updates automatically, i.e.:
My working version is 6.2.1 Beta 261. When I start this all searches are fine. Once I close it, it upgrades automatically to 7.0, even with "Check for updates automatically" disabled (can see it in the finder, size and date change).

When I start that version IMDB and TMDB are gone. If I delete the V7.0 file and start V 6.2.1 Beta 261 it works again. This automatic upgrade happens only when connected to the internet, when disconnected obvioulsy nothing changes and the searches work.
It does not happen for V 6.2.1 non-beta, that stays unchanged.

This behavior is reproducable tried it multiple times.

I also updated the app and have the same problem with the IMDB and TMDB being missing. Can't search for a movie with it or update an existing one to add cast and crew info. I just wanted to add my voice. I know it takes time to fix.
