Multiple Directors

[Omertron]

Original issue 989 created by Omertron on 2009-09-10T20:23:31.000Z:

Some movies have more than 1 director.

example: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0133093/
single: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0348150/

I'm fine with a new movie->directors field in the xml and leaving the old
single movie->director for legacy skin compatibility.

I don't know of any movies on IMDB without a director to give an example.

Also note; you don't look at the full cast list when you import any cast data so your
missing names for all fields, cast, directors, writers, etc.. four rooms is an
excellent example of a lot of people who worked on a movie where your missing a lot
of names

YAMJ currently only scrapes the first page and doesn't delve into any additional
"more" pages as the processing time would be more significant

Back to the original request. Is there any possibility of handling multiple directors? It would be really nice if this was handled just like writers.
