It’s been months; is this getting addressed at all, or are we just forgoing IMDB now…?
This was my main method of automatically grabbing new content, but it’s been entirely broken since June.
I see this comment on GitHub, and I’m guessing it’s probably spot on:
I don’t see IMDb “fixing” this issue anytime soon to be honest; they probably caught on that a metric shitload of users are scraping their IMDb watchlists from Sonarr & Radarr, generating heaps of traffic that IMDb has to pay for.
That sucks, but it’s probably not high on Amazon’s priority list of API issues to fix.
Amazon owns IMDb. Wikipedia says “Since 1998, it has been owned and operated by IMDb.com, Inc., a subsidiary of Amazon.”
The process to export a list has changed, but it still works. You can still export an imdb list as a csv file (excerpt below) without an imdb account, It’s just done in multiple steps now. Sonarr/Radarr need to update to accommodate this change.
