DVDpedia Version 5.15; IMDB Reversed Credits

Since updating to 5.15, IMDB title searches return reverse credits; Column:Name lists roles and Column:Roles lists actors. This is also true for the "Starring" field in that the character's names are listed.

This bug is not terribly helpful in doing a search by actor! Has anyone else reported this problem??

Can you give me an example of a movie where this happens please? So far I haven't been able to repeat the problem here, the roles and names come in just as they should, under the correct heading.

I can send you examples of this when I've got database access again, after checking if the current beta (last updated 2-Apr) makes any difference (like beta 45 did for recent IMDb issues; I'm still running 5.1.5).

Here's a simple example of the IMDb credits snafu that happened updating Thor's entry with IMDb data (0800369) after adding it with Amazon US data (B0034G4P80) using DVDpedia 5.1.5:

Doing the same using DVDpedia Beta 45 (2-Apr build) produces desired results:

So the Beta resolves this issue for me.

Thank you for testing that out and testing the beta for the fix.

Thanks for fixing this and other recent problems with the IMDb plugin.
