It seems that in the past when I added a new movie, the cast information was there after the add. If the cast info is not there does it mean that there was no cast information for the movie? Sorry, I'm a little confused.

No, it means that whoever submitted the profile did not enter any cast. It's not mandatory. In fact, the only things that you must enter in order to submit a profile are - if I remember correctly -  Title, ID (usually UPC/EAN) and Production Year.

In most cases, the initial contribution does contain cast and crew, and  if it does not, there is usually someone who is willing to add that to the profile. But if this is a relatively new or obscure title, it's not abnormal that it comes without a cast. Also, nowadays we have, unfortunately,  a diminishing number of active contributors.


Thanks so much! The movie was HIS DARK MATERIALS - season 3 which was released in DEC 2022, so that is why. Its a shame that not many people are contributing, I guess there is not as much need for the application today - everybody goes to Wikipedia or other online sources.

there are NO cast members. I thought these were automatically created?

Just to be clear, nothing is created automatically. Everything is user contributed. You can use DJ Doena's program to add cast and crew from IMDb, but IMDb data may not be contributed to the online database. If you want to contribute the (updated) profile, you need to first match everything to the actual movie credits.

I have not used this application for some time. I got a new computer and never moved it over to the new system until recently. I added a new movie, but there are NO cast members. I thought these were automatically created? I added this using the UPC code method. Thanks in advance for any info.
