Scraper Script v4.9.23 released

- Added 'informal title' to the new blacklist

Came down with nasty flu on Friday and still not feeling 100%, so all my big plans got totally ruined. At least these type of small adjustments I can do on auto-pilot, but need longer clear mind to focus on the other ideas. Shooting for next weekend.

Not sure if known problem or not. But "remove roman numeral from first movie" hasn't been working for some time on two of my PCs. Including a fresh install of MP1.5 and movpic/imdb+.

Keep in mind that without the IMDb+ article removal system (that I still have to finish coding), that you have to Import+Refresh to make it work. This is so that the sortby title still keeps the roman numeral in it when it is based on the title. Pretty much have to work around a bug in the article removal system of MovPic.

ahh I see. This explains why It previously felt like it was intermittently working... All good. Thanks!

It is fixed now that all non-USA users get English title again. The problem that does still exist is the detection of 'original title' for non-USA users, so that you can do "English title (original title)" or reversed. Still have to work on that, but hopefully I can find some free time soon to do so.

Good to know, It was driving me crazy to always end with English Titles no matter what options set. Waiting patiently for fix And Thanks for this amazing scrapper

Scraper script v4.9.24 released

- Prevent runaway parsing expression if options XML file becomes corrupted

If the XML file that IMDb+ uses to store the options in becomes corrupted, it was causing the certification_usa regular expression to go haywire. Adjusted to order of things, which should prevent this from happening. Of course the options XML file should never have become corrupted in the first place, but that is for another day

It has been a few weekends since a new official Moving-Pictures release was supposed to take place. Not wanting to deprive anybody from the fixes and benefits that have been made since I have gone ahead and updated the Testing build on IMDb+ download section to v1.5.2.1528

Unzip the files and overwrite the ones you have in your plugins/Windows folder. Be sure to make backups of course and take close attention to the fact that this is a test build so do not report issues you might have. Of course considering that the current official release has problems that have been fixed that kinda makes things weird, but just going to have to live with that situation a little longer until a new official release is put forward.

Hopefully real life will not get in the way of the development team and they can release a nice new MPEI update.

PS: @ltfearme waiting for you to swing by and pick up your money

Scraper script v4.9.25 released

- Fixed collections XML/HTML encoding and made options XML system more robust

Impacted collections such as "Quarantine & [Rec]" as XML standard forces me to use & for the '&' character, but I forgot to decode it

Scraper script v4.9.26 released

- Fixed special edition detection

Some movie titles such as "[Rec]" were seen as a special title and were 'preserved'. Never noticed it in my testing, because you have to refresh an existing movie for that part of the code to kick in.
