As long as you can export the list on IMDB's side and you want to import to one of our 3 primary account lists, yes. Export the list and then go into your account and click "Import CSV". Then import them into your "Rated" list.
We do not support importing a CSV into a non-account list on TMDb at this time.
Right now you can only import Ratings, Watchlist and Favorites. For the rest, you'll have to wait until Travis adds the possibility of importing custom lists which unfortunately isn't a high priority for him atm.
@Raghavan_Rave your script is great, anyway i can import to my watchlist and dont create a new list? under my tmdb, i used to import the list by going to import list > "import to which list?" and select "watchlist"

With my script you can only import to custom lists. I made it that way as TMDB already has this feature implemented in the settings page.

@Raghavan_Rave there is an update to the imdb that wont allow import from the settings, can you please add this feature to your script? i think it will be very useful

i just checked apparently lists can be exported either as rss or csv ..
what do you mean exactly by non-account list?
-> does that mean one can't import list created on imdb and keep the name?
has that been changed in the past 2 years?
i have a handful of lists .. that i'd love to keep!

Hello you all!
Where the hell is the Import CSV or Import List on TMDB?! I can't find it anymore anywhere.
And I can't create any new topic/thread on this Support board.

Go to your account "Settings" and then click the "Import List" link in the left hand sidebar (or dropdown if you're on mobile).
What's the problem?

Made a script that automatically exports your IMDb lists and import it to TMDB. Like actual TMDB custom list. See Demo

@Raghavan_Rave see this issue https://www.themoviedb.org/talk/665923ae2f924e74009404bf
The export from imdb is now different so the site doesnt import it
