Re: Scraper request: Filmdelta.se (SWE)

New version 1.5.0

• Fixed score (from IMDb)
• Fixed language (from IMDb)
• Added tagline (from IMDb)
• When IMDb ID is available (for example in a .nfo file) the movie details page is retrieved (instead of searching and matching)

Re: Scraper request: Filmdelta.se (SWE)

I think my question is related to this scraper.
I have this scraper as the first one in order and then I have the Imdb one.

My problem is that the two different scrapers add the same genere in different language, for example Kommedi and Comedy.
Could it be possible to let this scraper "translate" the Swedish name to the english one?
With the "same" genre in both languages the movies appear in different genres depending on wich scraper that did find it.

If this is possible to change I think it is much more easy to change it in this scraper than in the Imdb scraper.

A language conversion upgrade to the scraper would be required. This is personal right now, so requires you to modify the scrapers you use yourself. A global multi-language method will eventually make its way into MovingPictures, but you can easaly add it yourself right now.

Edit: I'll add a wiki scraper entry on this later in the technical section that assists scraper writers on to how to do this. It is not the intention that regular users have to go through this themselves, unless they want to learn how to contribute to MovingPictures themselves.

Note: You, or whomever maintains this Swedish scraper can have a look at the snipplet that they would need at: http://paste2.org/p/665479. This was something we came up with for the scope.dk scraper, but if you are technically able to modify a scraper, you should be able to work with it.

Has there been any update on the swedish scraper lately? Reason I'm asking is that I don't get any rating from imdb anymore when movie is match against filmtipset.se

Re: Scraper request: Filmdelta.se (SWE)

If by rating you mean score - yes, there's an update at Moving Pictures' Google Code Project

I haven't looked into it but I guess that the My Video scraper has to be recreated from scratch. I won't be using My Videos since it lacks follw.it support.

MyVideos on MePo 1.x relies on a C# based scraper system, so you would indeed have to do a full rewrite. Not something high on my own ToDo list either in regards to IMDb+. For MePo 2.x however I am in discussion with the developers and plans exist to add a MovPic alike XML based scraper system to it. That changes everything and the MovPic scraper scripts might then work as-is or only need minor modifications.

I'm working on fixing this grabber and have only one last detail to fix - when searching for title instead of IMDb number the scraper only returns the first movie on the search page where it should display the top five and let the user select the correct movie. Does anyone know why only one movie is displayed in the importer drop-down box but the logs show all 100 movies from the search page?

However I've already fixed Length, Filmtipset score (disabled by default), Summary, Search results match and IMDb score.

But now there's another problem in that the searches are too slow so I keep getting timeouts after 5 seconds, even though I changed the timeout in Moving Pictures advanced settings to 50 seconds. I haven't been able to grab a single movie for days
