Hi all,
I'm trying to get result by http://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/movie?api_key=[API]&query=%D0%B2%D1%8B%D0%BA%D1%80%D1%83%D1%82%D0%B0%D1%81%D1%8B
No results. ...but it worked before.
However it works here http://www.themoviedb.org/search?query=%D0%B2%D1%8B%D0%BA%D1%80%D1%83%D1%82%D0%B0%D1%81%D1%8B#0
Thank you, any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Hi fedorzima,
This is a currently known issue. I'm in the middle of completely re-writing search and when this goes live, all non English character searches will start working again.

Mr. Bell, could you pls also add possibility to search long named titles in Russian? 'cause in previous version of search (when it worked) we had to shorten film's title, throwing last one or two words, to get normal search result via API. i.e. if I had file name "Гарри Поттер и философский камень" - I had no matching via API search, so I had to shorten file's name to "Гарри Поттер и философский" to get film's matching...

Can you give this a try now? Should be working as expected.

It seems now search works fine. BTW It's OK if I enter "matri" and not getting results?

Confirm, works fine, including long named Russian titles, thank you... Except one thing, if you have 2 films with same title, namely "Anna Karenina", you are getting only one added to media library, even if you add production year to title...

If you're referring to partial word matching, check the API docs and read up about the new
search_typeparameter. You'll want to use ngram searching.How are you entering the year? With the
?year=parameter?Original query (has both)
Query to find the first one:
Query to find the second one:
Cheers.

Hi there!

English http://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/person?api_key=XXX&query=Sergey%20Bodrov
Russian http://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/person?api_key=XXX&query=%D0%A1%D0%B5%D1%80%D0%B3%D0%B5%D0%B9%20%D0%91%D0%BE%D0%B4%D1%80%D0%BE%D0%B2

We don't support translating English to Russian, or vice versa. Whatever content is added as a name to a person is what you can search for.
You could get around this once I hook up the "also known as" feature on people. Once that works, you could add both names to a person and find them in either Russian or English.
