Custom Search

What I really miss is a kind of Custom Search. I would like to define some criteria in the preferences how DVDpedia should search and add Content into certain fields. For example, when adding a movie,
I want to search for at IMDB,
add all Infos from IMDB but
add similar products from AMAZON,
add Genre and Summary from Cinefacts.de (because they support multiple genres and summary in my language),
and add, for the case the movie was not found on Cinefacts.de or the fields are empty, the still empty fields from IMDB aggain (because IMDB supports most infos)

At the moment I do this by hand when adding a movie... and thats kind of annoying.
And because everyone has different likings I could imagine that feature would be appreciated :).

Maybe it's to difficult ;). Or you are to busy.

It's on our feature request list for the future. For now, you can mix and match information by using the advanced search and deleting any fields you want filled by another site (DVDpedia will never overwrite information already present).
