I managed to make a mess of the "IMDb to DVD Profiler Transformation Data". I have no idea where it is stored. I already copied the contents of "CastCrewEdit2_x64_Upgrade2" folder into "CastCrewEdit2" folder which did not fix it. Please Help.

Sorry have been away for a while. I will take a look into it. But as I said the problem will be growing as web technologies improve and sites like IMDb try to load more data on the fly when the browser requests it but is not visible for a scraper like mine.

At present the IMDB website has a dedicated "Cast & crew" page for each title and/or TV episode which once loaded displays all the needed data in one go.  Hopefully so long as that's the case it will be possible for your application to scrape said data for use with DVD Profiler.  That being said, I look forward to your application being able to scrape the cast and crew data once again.  Currently it's not working for me at all, neither tab, Movie or TV Show.  Count on a generous donation coming your way from me soon and irrespective of whether you get this working again.  Your Cast/Crew Edit 2 application has been worth its weight in gold.  If I had to choose between having access to Invelos.com or a fully functional Cast/Crew Edit 2 I'd choose your application every day of the week and twice on Sunday.

You might try AppData. And it could be an XML file by another name. Good luck. If DJ doesn't respond soon, remind me by private message and I'll install the plugin and see if I can discover where he stores the data.
Thanks for your support.

The "IMDb to DVD Profiler Transformation Data" is the file in the "Data" folder called "IMDbToDVDProfilerCrewRoleTransformation.xml" and is always found in the full download and can be edited with the EditIMDbToDVDProfilerCrewRoleTransformation.exe

Thank you for that. It worked. I guess I got to aggressive with editing it.

I gave this version a try just now.  Not able to replicate the error.  Are you able to replicate the error at will?  If so, what actions are taking place from the moment you launch the application prior to the error happening?

Of course I did check to see if we were back in business with this version.  Still nothing when hitting up the "Scan Page" button from the "Movie" or "TV Show" tabs once browsing to a title from the "Browser" tab.  Would love to see this working again.

Most excellent news!  Guess I need to do some troubleshooting on my end.

So now I'm curious.  What version of Windows are you running?  I'm on Windows 11 Pro (Version: 24H2 | OS build: 26100.8246).

Well, I gave it another try.  Same result.  No data is coming down.  Tried the latest build of Windows 10 via VirtualBox as well.  Just isn't working.  Time to try a different computer I suppose.  Will see if it's working with my old Windows 7 laptop.  Also have a new HTPC.  I'll give it a go there as well.

For me I am running Windows 10 Pro if it helps. One other note: When I launch Cast/Crew Edit 2 and after I tell the error to continue, the browser window comes up blank.

It is possible that the settings file is corrupted. You might have to fish around a bit - I think in AppData in one of the microsoft or dvd profiler folders. When you delete the settings and the plugin will automatically rebuild the settings, but of course you will lose any options or settings for any plugins that use the same settings file. Maybe give it a shot. You can always save the settings just in case that was not the problem.

Also. click on the details button and post that information. There might be a clue in there.

Thanks for the feedback.  No joy yet.  Did find the below which I deleted.

\Users\ASUS\AppData\Local\Doena_Soft\CheckForDuplicatesInCastC_Url_3trfl35j5z5yisojotxstyrdgtjb2o0b\2.0.0.1\user.config

Issue persists unfortunately.  Same via the latest build of Windows 10 running on VirtualBox.

Will try the latest build of the plugin on a couple other computers now, my old Windows 7 laptop and recently purchased Mini PC running Windows 11 Pro.  Wish my luck!
____________________

An update here for those listening in.  Still no dice.  This is getting annoying.  Tried the latest version of the plugin on my old Windows 7 laptop.  An immediate fatal exception error occurs, the program then having to close. Next I give my Mini PC a try which is running Windows 11 Pro with all available updates, UAC set to "Never notify", all the other garbage turned off that's supposed to protect me from myself.  Bought the Mini PC a month ago.  It's brand new.  Fresh build of Windows.  Downloaded the latest version of the plugin, unblocked the *.exe's, launched the application.  First time running the application on the Mini PC.  Same result as my laptop running Windows 11 Pro.  When scanning the given page after having browsed to a title the process completes successfully.  No data is coming down whether it be a Movie or TV show.

I tested the latest version, and got no errors on scanning, but also got no data.

So, just a reminder, if CastCrewInfo isn't working you can get cast and crew with TmdbInfo.
It's not quite as advanced, but it is better than nothing (and it doesn't need constant updates since the Tmdb API doesn't change).
