The Plot from IMDB often ends with 'Written by' and when the author is just a regular name all is well, but many times the author name is an email address starting with <

Written by <jhailey@hotmail.com> is such an eaxample.
XMM however fills plot with :
Written by
&view=simple&sort=alpha&ref_=tt_stry_pl" ><jhailey@hotmail.com>

Hmm...
Do you have a movie example?

I tried with "Se7en" an the plot looks ok.
For example:

Se7en is such an example. My import with the IMDB script ends with:

Written by
&view=simple&sort=alpha&ref_=tt_stry_pl" >Mark Fleetwood <mfleetwo@mail.coin.missouri.edu>

Is the "strange" value shown both in the -> movie edit window > details tab > plot field and in card view or just in card view?

Which movie card are you using?

The error was visible in both the card and in the details tab. WAS because the latest IMDB complete script build from 30/4 seems to have fixed the issue.

I had disabled auto update check for the scripts because I need to do this manually so that I can replace the REGION section with a custom one for scrapping metacritic scores. Also any regular update will reset some altered options for example including trivia, goofs, AKA etc. to the default. In other words after an update the script options chosen with non-default choices need to be re-entered after each update, which is pretty lame i.m.o. but at least I now know I probably won't update 'accidentally' :)

Yeah, XMM should remember a lot more settings than it actually does... ... but at least your script results could be healed.
