accurate realtime IMDb ratings

i mean, we never promised "accurate realtime" ratings.. that would not be possible as these metadata responses are using both cdn cache and local app cache

[jaruba]

also i think you may be using the TMDB community addon for this metadata? because what i see in your screenshot is different from the cinemeta data that I see from the official Cinemeta addon

checked on our new mobile app, and directly in the addon results we have correct imdb rating.
Reflecting the real time rating is not possible it would require constantly refreshing metadata about thousands of movies and series which is simply not possible.
You see different rating perhaps due cache, and it should get updated once cache expires.

Thank you for your clear explanation and yes I know real time ratings are difficult to attain. Being a novice in tech space, I thought this could be a bug which I should report so as to help developers. But I understand the issue more clearly now. Cheers!
