    Complete update.

    ASAP but some movies could not have this data (due to structure of the plugin).

    Hello,

    I reinstaled Mediaportal (a long time needed task), and reinstallled also ShowTimes, but now I can't find JCA Alpicat cinemas (in Alpicat). I think you use eCartelera.com as source, and, in this provider, this cinemas (the bigger near Lleida) doesn't show.

    I checked another providers, and Todocine.com has all the theahers. I checked others providers and this is the more complete (not only with Lleida), but maybe is dificult to scrap, because it uses post requests.

    Another alternatives:
    http://servicios.elpais.com/cartelera/ (a newspapper, but very good, I get from it the tv information for the tv guide)
    http://www.hoycinema.com/cartelera

    http://www.europapress.es/cultura/cartelera/ (the source for some newspapers)
    google.es/movies (some errors in times).

    Thank's

    Hi pantav,

    thank you.
    I've checked the todocine.com site, but i found that the are few trailers. Better on europapress and hoycinema but poor quality.
    Could take the trailer from FilmAffinity but the names of the films may be different.
    Tell me which one is best for you.

    I like this plugin, but the trailers are stuttering. Any recommendation to fix it or fix the issue would be appreciated.

    Thanks,

    That's not this plugin causing the stuttering - it's something else...

    Thanks nephlim,

    I like the trailers, but in my search I fogotted them. You have reason, eCartelera has good trailers. For me, the best solution is to use todocine.com and complement it with filmaffinity.com/es, but others spanish users can prefer the actual provider (eCartelera is correct in another sites). I don't want you to get contradictory requests, so, maybe the solution is to make Spanish (eCartelera) and Spanish (todoCine), or best to list theaters with the provider and let select one.

    I sended also a request to eCartelera to include the missing cinemas. But I don't have any response.

    Are you sure about this site? No movie original name (so no IMDB, TMDB and iTunes Movie lookup), no director, no starring, no swedish trailers.

    Nephilim,

    No response from eCartelera. But I think I found the definitive resource for Spanish cinema. The site is:

    www.sensacine.com

    There are cinemas, films, news, trailers (some in HD), reviews, sinopsys, ... And is a lot more complete than eCartelera (not only for Lleida). For exemple in eCartelera there are no active cinema in Badajoz (a primary city), in sensacine there are a multicinema. There are a lot to correct in eCartelera to get the completeness of sensacine.

    So if you change eCartelera by Sensacinema, I think no one will complain and there are room to expand the info.

    For example, sensacine has information about money in: http://www.sensacine.com/peliculas/taquilla/
    (boxoffice for spain is located in: http://www.eleconomista.es/boxoffice/reports_spain/ but there are no informationa about 2012 )

    There are also information about next films in: http://www.sensacine.com/peliculas/estrenos/
    (because comingsoon.net is not available in spanish).

    If you need help with the navegation or similar, let me know.

    (Also, MTA crashes in my system. Initial update ok, but no more updates. But this is another thing).

    Thanks.
