It already does. It's referred to as "Description" in the Overwrite fields section of the configuration. You can also specify the field to put it into, allowing multiple descriptions/plot summaries/overviews/whatever from various sources.

If you can export the data from the other program in some plain text format, it can be imported to PVD without much difficulty.

It does import but just a one liner...
I wish to download the full plot summary...
imdb shows a hyperlink to view the full plot summary as "Full Plot Summary".

And import from movienizer just takes place by adding the name... if we want to add all details from movienizer db to Pvd we have to download it all over again... ???

This might be a problem with the script. I am facing the same problem. The setting "download full plot" for the script has no effects anymore.

For more than two months, so will have to wait that Nostra edited and uploaded new movie and people IMDb plugin.

Oops, I have just discovered that I had not the latest version of the script (0.9.6.4). After the update it works fine for me now.

@warcode: Check under "help - check for updates" if you have the newest version of the script and that under "preferences - plugins - imdb - configure" the setting "download full plot summary" is enabled.

Remember that nostra sees the future, and therefore routinely fixes the problem you're having now yesterday. Ignore automatic updates at your peril. ;)

And import from movienizer just takes place by adding the name...

Unless you're expecting someone here to know something about movienizer, you'll have to explain exactly what you're trying to do. PVD is capable of importing any number of fields—if the data is in appropriate form.

That is an interesting point. I have enabled the „check for updates“ option but I did not get a message. The ignore list is empty. How often is PVD checking for updates?
