[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 1168456, member: 18896"] It was brought to my attention that imdb.com changed their website HTML code, which potentially breaks IMDb+. Was never able to replicate it, until I started adding 0-byte test movies. Seems imdb.com is not using the new changes for every movie, and it even differs per GeoIP region. The results are that summary might be missing, ratings are not correct, or other data missing. Rottentomatoes also changed a few minor things, and still has that whole API limit mess going on. By creating a 0-byte "In the heart of the Sea (2015).mkv" file I was able to reproduce the problem, and fixed a ton of regular expressions that IMDb+ relies on to get the right information. The problem is that Google Code is now read-only, so I need to move the project over to GitHub, update the plugin to use new location to look for new scraper-script file, and then everybody would first need to update the IMDb+ plugin to get everything functional again. I will do my best to find the time for this, hopefully this weekend, but things are still hectic for me. It is possible to manually fix the `scripts` database entry, and I will otherwise provide instructions on how to do that if I am unable to get the plugin done this weekend. [/QUOTE]
