Identify again a movie

Modified on Tue, 11 Feb at 7:57 AM

To re-identify a movie, do the following:


1. Place the cursor on the movie you want to re-identify. Then press the MENU button on your remote control (or right-click if you are on a computer). Then, click on "Re-identify...".



2. In the Identify window, click on the corresponding movie in the list.



If no results are found, change the title in the search box.



Delete all characters after the movie title and validate.



If the search does not return a satisfactory proposition, another 100% reliable technique is to manually enter the unique identification code of the film instead of the title of the film to find it directly.


Go to the TMDB website, following this link: https://www.themoviedb.org

In the TMDB site search engine, enter the name of the film or TV Shows, for example "Ad Astra". Then validate.

Then click in the list of results, on the film or series corresponding to your file to access its file.



Find its TMDb ID code:

This is the identification number located in the URL address of the Internet page of the film file (Internet path). This number is located just after "movie/".



Example: https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/256591-focus?language=en-US


Return to R_video. In the manual ID entry field, enter the movie ID number in place of its title.


Then, validate by pressing OK button of your remote control or ENTER if you are using a computer. The correct movie will be found. Then, click on it to associate the movie to your video file.


Then, click on the corresponding movie in the list.



3. Wait until the identification process is complete.
