Error - IMDB ID must be in the format: tt#######

[Sartre]

My imdb numbers are proper

eg.  tt0050296  tt0051047

but I get the error so I left them out.

Not sure which of ur torrents ur talking about. But in the most recent ones i see working IMDB links (i clicked on them and got the correct imdb pages.

[Sartre]

It was the last two. I'm not sure how the links were added but somehow they were.

I am getting the same error message, despite the fact I'm sending the IMDB code in the specified format .

Looks like I will have to disable sending the code, which seems counter productive.


Edit: Just to confirm, not sending the IMDB code, even though its valid, has fixed the issue.

Whoever added that check needs to fix it.

The imdb keeps expanding and the latest titles have 10 digits (some 9), which can give an error on TPB which insists it should be fewer digits. Winston, the TPB Admin, said the issue has been fixed and that the site should now accept all imdb numbers.

However, if any uploader experiences any problems regarding their imdb input, please post in Account Issues with a link to the torrent/s in question and one of us will edit the correct info in.

I've edited those 2 torrents but in future, if you get any imdb errors, please post in Account Issues.

I get the error myself, and the only way to index a torrent at the moment is to leave the imdb box empty. Uploaders are free to include the imdb link in their descriptions though. I've asked Winston to take another look at this issue.

Did this ever get fixed ?

[ Yes, I know I could test it, but I'd rather not break my uploads if someone can just say yes/no ]
