How do I add a missing movie?
We use TMDB for all movie information. It's free for anyone to sign up and edit info at TMDB.
- Make sure the movie exists on TMDB with English information filled out.
- On the Trakt.tv website, click the Import Movie link in the footer.
- Type in the TMDB ID and click the Import button.
Behind the scenes, here is what we do during a movie import.
- All movie info is imported from TMDB. Any title aliases or translations are stored and used in searching.
- The highest rated poster and fanart are also imported from TMDB. 1080p (or larger) is preferred for fanart and we'll only use 720p if nothing better is available.
- Supporting images such as logo, banner, thumb are imported from Fanart.tv.
