Light IMDb Ratings Update is a Kodi add-on that keeps updated the IMDb ratings for your movies and TV shows.
Description
Light IMDb Ratings Update runs as a Kodi service to update the ratings, votes and Top 250 for movies as well as the ratings and votes for TV shows (including episodes) by scraping the data from the IMDb site. The update can be run manually or scheduled once a week and it will run as soon as possible after a scheduled start is missed. Please check the add-on thread in the Kodi forum for more details.
