[QUOTE="m3rcury, post: 919138, member: 106370"] All, have managed to complete the coding for the DVDArt scraper :D [I](although it need some final aesthetic touches, but functionality is all there)[/I]. Am attaching a version here for you to try it out and provide feedback. Just to explain a bit how this works: [LIST] [*]the data driving the scraper is taken from MovingPictures, hence any corrections, [I](mainly missing IMDb IDs)[/I] need to be corrected in MovingPictures. [*]images are downloaded from [B][URL='http://fanart.tv/']Fanart.tv[/URL][/B] site. I recommend that you visit site and help out by uploading any DVD images you might have/come across so that we all enrich its content, resulting in scraper finding more images to download. [*]when you launch the application for the first time, it will create a new database called dvdart.db3 in the default database directory. This is used internally by the application. It will also create necessary folders to hold the images in thumbs\MovingPictures directory. [*]application consists of 3 tabs: [/LIST] [LIST=1] [*][LIST=1] [*][B]Movies with DVDArt[/B] shows movies which scraper successfully downloaded an image. [*][B]Importer[/B] shows movies whose DVDArt is currently being imported. [*][B]Movies missing DVDArt[/B] shows movies which scraper could not find any images. [I](here is where your help is mainly required as mentioned above)[/I] [/LIST] [/LIST] [INDENT=2][ATTACH]111887[/ATTACH][ATTACH]111888[/ATTACH][ATTACH]111889[/ATTACH][/INDENT] [LIST] [*][LIST] [*]the import function for new movies executes automatically in the background, so you don't need to trigger it manually. [*]each tab has a number of functions which can be triggered by pressing the right mouse button. In [I]Movies with DVDArt[/I] tab, pressing right mouse button gives the facility to Refresh DVDArt from Online. This option download all images available and allows you to change the existing image chosen. In [I]Importer[/I] tab, pressing the right mouse button will Restart the Importer, hence if changes were done in MovingPictures, you don't need to restart application. In [I]Movies missing DVDArt[/I] tab, the right mouse button presents 2 options. The first one sends the currently selected movie to the importer, which the second sends all the movies missing DVDArt to the importer. [/LIST] [/LIST] For MovingPictures to display the downloaded images, attached find a MOD'ed movingpictures.fanart.listview.xml. The MOD is clearly marked by [B]<!-- m3rcury : Rotating DVDArt -->[/B]. Am also including the piece of code here for your reference: [CODE]<!-- m3rcury : Rotating DVDArt --> <control> <description>Rotating Movie disc</description> <type>image</type> <id>0</id> <posX>65</posX> <posY>300</posY> <width>386</width> <height>350</height> <texture>..\..\..\thumbs\MovingPictures\DVDArt\FullSize\#MovingPictures.SelectedMovie.imdb_id.png</texture> <keepaspectratio>yes</keepaspectratio> <visible>facadeview.list+control.isvisible(50)+Control.HasThumb(90)</visible> <animation effect="rotate" delay="0" end="-360" centre="475,258" time="8000" loop="true" condition="true">Conditional</animation> </control> <!-- m3rcury : Rotating DVDArt -->[/CODE] My next step is to convert the application into a plugin o_O............... :D. Hope you like the results. Thanks (y) [/QUOTE]
