Hi, i hope this is the correct place to submit this because it is not
for the imdbpy package but for the vdbpy one. If it's not the right
place to submit bugs,please redirect me there.

Anyway, i use Ubuntu Hardy, videodb 3.0.1, imdbpy 3.6-1 (.deb downloaded
from intrepid ibex repository) and vdbpy 1.0.

Bug report:
vdbpy_add.py : Every field in videodb is filled/updated correctly
(including the actors) except the ratings.Rating is not filled either
when i add a new imdbID nor i am updating an existing videodbID.
As far as i know imdbpy can retrieve ratings, right?
If so then it must be something inside 'vdbpy_add.py' code


Bug report:
vdbpy_batch.py: I've read the batch.txt but something is wrong, i
reproduce the steps below:
$ mkdir batchtest
$ cd batchtest
$ vdbpy_batch.py dump
        Dumping videodata.id "3"...  done!
        Dumping videodata.id "2"...  done!
        Dumping videodata.id "4"...  done!
        Dumping videodata.id "5"...  done!
        Dumping videodata.id "6"...  done!
$ cat *
3::Fight Club::imdb:0137523::http://akas.imdb.com/title/ttimdb:0137523/
4::First Blood::imdb:0083944::http://akas.imdb.com/title/ttimdb:0083944/
6::Pathology::0964539::http://akas.imdb.com/title/tt0964539/
5::Rambo III::0095956::http://akas.imdb.com/title/tt0095956/
2::The Matrix::imdb:0133093::http://akas.imdb.com/title/ttimdb:0133093/

videodbIDs 6 and 5 were filled into videodb using "vdbpy_add.py imdbID"
The rest were filled in database using various videoDB's ways (by adding
new item from 'New' tab, by using 'Imdb Online' tab , and by using 'Mass
Imdb Movie Add' script from Tool/Contrib tab.
Can you see something weird?
videodbIDs 6 and 5 use
{videoDB_id::imdb_long_title::XXXXXXXX::imdbURL} format as expected but
the others use {videoDB_id::imdb_long_title::[imdb:]XXXXXXXX::imdbURL}
format
(where XXXXXXXX is the imdbID).
Both formats above provide correct information in videodb BUT using the
second format make vdbpy_batch.py useless (and vdbpy_add.py of course
because it is called from vdbpy_batch.py) .

I know nothing about python but i think a quick fix to this would be a
wrapper inside 'vdbpy_batch.py dump' function that deletes the "imdb:"
when dumping records from database.

Thanks for maintaining those great tools, imdbpy Rocks!!
