[Approved] IMDB with AKA script (3 Viewers)

[mejim707]

Then how come other scripts download the covers"? Even the IMDB grabber with OFDB downloads the covers. Not sure what to do then at this point to get the cover art. Is there any suggestion or do I need to simply have a bunch of plank covers?

I will add code for cover grab from IMDB in script, check later today here I will attach script for you.

Oh wow. Thank you very much!

Ok, here you are. Unrar and copy to MPConfig -> \scripts\MovieInfo folder.

You can also get it via Scripts update in Videotabase Configuration.

Hi Deda ! Long time ....

Do IMDb scraper that come with MP 1.2 RC1 are the must update one ? i see meny feild not retrive info ...
like :
Movie Info :
1- Tagline
2- Votes
3- User Review
Actors Info :
same actors come up as " IMDb - " befure the name so all the actor like this , no info downlaod ...
for exsample try movie Black Swan (2011) actor "Mila Kunis" come up as " IMDb - Mila Kunis" and no info scrap ,all do the info on the web .

As i see some info in moving pictures posts abut IMDb web changing some of codes , probly need to update the scraper for My Videos too.

Use update in config, in RC1 is not recent one ( I change it after code freeze so couldn't add it up in SVN).

Also, for user review you need to use IMDB_MP12x.

Actors info are broken currently. I made repair but couldn't integrate it in 1.2.0 as it's a part of massive actor info rework which handles actors completely different and blazing fast, but as this requires skin changes it will need to wait 1.3.0 :sorry:

Removed scripts from first post, now you can fetch newest one via MP Configuration script update. You will have two of them in your script list:

1. IMDB with AKA - as default one compatible with all version of MP
2. IMDB with AKA V1.2.x - only for MP 1.2.x and above which will have extra things not compatible with lower MP versions

Hi Deda -
MP 1.2.x script worked like a charm for me. However, is there somewhere that explains the 'extra things' . I was thinking to add something to the Wiki about it, but I don't know for sure what the differences are.
