Silent mode does hide the errors, but then you have to find the errors somehow and re-run the updates.
I suppose this is what I've become used to. I use your transname PHP script (and do not download transname). Sorting by transname then leaves all newly added records at the top of the list. When I feel it's time for an update, I just select and update those records (with Silent Mode on), and then run the script. That routine must be causing me to miss any records that might have been skipped due to this issue. But with 31,000 records, how am I going to notice? I do occasionally check for records with no Career—which seems to be reliable way of finding records that have not been updated—but I don't recall finding any missed records that way since I've been doing this. Maybe I'm updating often enough my batches are small and don't trigger the error.

People come up as hidden records when added from the movie script, and only become visible after the record has been updated, so filtering on "not visible" works.
If Show people added from movies credits is set, then all people are visible. But grouping by Career works just as well.
