Unable to see Rotten Tomato ratings on the info bar at the bottom of the screen
#1
Help please.

After fully rebuilding my 3 devices (Windows & Android) and updating to Kodi 21 Omega (Aeon Nox Silvo v10.0.0), having rescanned my entire library of movies using the Universal Movie Scraper, when I hover over any of the movie thumbnails (I am viewing with Small Icons), I no longer see the Rotten Tomato ratings on the left hand side of the info bar at the bottom of the screen.

I am only able to see the Rotten Tomato ratings when I view the Information on the Thumbnail.

In my previous builds, the icons were visible on the tool bar.

What am I doing wrong?

Outside of the Video Info screen, you need a script to show those ratings.

For online content scraping using an OMDb API key there is TMDb Helper.

If the information is already provided in NFO_files (wiki) or manually added using Metadata Editor then Embuary Helper is the only other option that I know of.

Hi Mike,

Many thanks for your advice.

I installed Embuary Info and TheMovieDb Helper.

And magically all of the Rotten Tomatoes ratings now appear as I wanted on the left hand side of the info bar at the bottom of the screen. Blush

No scraper provides rotten tomato or metacritic ratings. It comes from one of the helper addons that skins use.
You can add your own ratings into a nfo file if you use them as shown below...

xml:
<ratings>
<rating name="imdb" max="10" default="true">
<value>5.500000</value>
<votes>86352</votes>
</rating>
<rating name="themoviedb" max="10">
<value>5.900000</value>
<votes>908</votes>
</rating>

<rating name="metacritic" max="10">
<value>7.3</value>
<votes>39</votes>
</rating>
<rating name="tomatometerallcritics" max="10">
<value>8.1</value>
<votes>90</votes>
</rating>
<rating name="tomatometerallaudience" max="10">
<value>9.0</value>
<votes>708620</votes>
</rating>
<tag>TV Recording</tag>
</ratings>
Sorry, I don't recall if tomatometerallcritics or tomatometerallaudience is used.

Hi Pienoet,

I use the Universal Movie scraper, and have picked up a OMDb API Key from http://www.omdbapi.com/apikey.aspx
