Subject: How to get _not_ translated titles?
Hi, it seems imdb.com again changes its search handling. I am from Slovakia, and when I search "hero" (I tried www.imdb.com, akas.imdb.com and all others I am aware of), I will get "translated" titles into Slovak language. But I want original titles (behavior before) It detects my IP, so it returns translated titles. If anybody knows how to override that, I would be happy. I find out some cookie helps (if I clear cookies, change proxy to USA for example, go to imdb.com, turn off proxy - it works OK, but I didnt decode that cookies). So for now, when I search "hero" I get: Hrdina (2002) aka "Hero" How to get rid of that?

Hi, Have no idea how to fix it now. Will check and probably find a way. On Sun, Dec 23, 2012 at 6:32 PM, Ing. Branislav Gerzo via RT < bug-IMDB-Film@rt.cpan.org> wrote: Show quoted text

yes, I know, maybe it is not possible to fix it. Only one way, which comes to my mind is debug their cookies. It behaves like this: country A: not translated titles country B: translated titles 0. No cookie from imdb.com 1. I go to website from country A, it saves cookies 2. Titles are not translated 3. I switch to country B proxy 4. Titles are not translated (thats ok) another scenario: 0. No cookie from imdb.com 1. I go to website from proxy in Country B, it saves cookies 2. I get translated titles 3. I turn off proxy, I go from Country A 4. I still got translated titles So, definitely it saves in some proxy (maybe session id?) the state. If I would be able to transfer this cookie, it would help, but I am not sure how to do that. thanks anyway

In Bug #62288 for IMDB-Film: Localized title name instead of original title the following change has been proposed Show quoted text
> + $ua->default_header('Accept-Language' => "en-US,en");
which retrieves the english title if available (but not necessarily the original title). Regards, Ulrich

Thanks, I will try. For now I am using cookie-workaround, which works quite OK.
