The script has had a problem for a month or two which seemed to start when IMDB displayed a dropdown selection of movies when you type a title in the search box.

The Symptoms are
1. If the script does not find a single exact match, there is no text in the list of movies that you click to select the right one
(A work around it to look up the movie manually and then change the title to the IMDB reference number e.g tt123456)

2. Occasionally, the import process fails and a message "Error downloading the #OPENWEBSLOT1#, are you still connected to the internet. Check Firewall etc" appears. It actually appears twice and then the script skips to the next movie. When this happens "IMDB Title Search" appears in the Title and Original title field and a number of other fields are left blank.
It most recently happened trying to import using the title "Phase 7 (2010)". 5 other movies in the same import worked OK

Anyone else got this problem? Is there a fix?

Just tested it and it's working here.

But the movie you tried tt123456 doesn't work without the IMDB reference number, because it's a Adult Movie and Adult Movies don't show up search results.

That is a protection on the IMDB website: https://resume.imdb.com/help/show_leaf?adultmatches

Sorry tt123456 was just an example of what I meant by IMDB reference number; it was not meant the movie with which I was having the problem. An example of the movie which causes problems is Phase 7 with number tt1568816 which is not, AFAIK, adult. Full details are
1. The Title field contained Phase 7 (2011) B
2. The script searched and produced some entries with no text
3. I change the title to Phase 7 (2011) and searched again
The fault occurred as described
