[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 1252771, member: 18896"] Yes, he relies on the filmtipset.se search system, and gets the Filmtipset Movie-ID that way. For IMDb+ I'm forced to rely on the imdb.com search system, locate the movie, have user confirm the movie (or auto accept if the logic is pretty sure it is the correct movie), and then inside the details logic side of the script use the IMDb tt-ID to do an API search with that link I showed you to get the Filmtipset Movie-ID, which then allows me to scrape the Swedish movie details. It is not possible to do two searches, because the MovPic GUI does not allow you to select the manual results twice. The not-recommended workaround would then be to do what is called a fuzzy search, and that is that I do a search within the details node via the filmtipset.se search engine, and accept the first match always and cross fingers it is the correct one. The recommended workaround is to do a proper search with filmtipset.se that accepts searching for IMDb tt-ID, which is what that `nyheter24.se` script was doing. Either their script broke, their API access key was disabled, or filmtipset.se broke/disabled their API to allow for IMDb tt-ID searches.

Let me know what you can find out, otherwise fuzzy search it is. [/QUOTE]
