    Hi,

    I have written a cover art scraper for moviemaze.de.
    Please notice, that this will only find covers for german movie titles. (I am querying google for the poster site of a movie, for those sites on moviemaze only the german movie title is indexed). If you are using the ofdb detail scraper you should be fine.

    Feel free to report movies not working with this scraper, but first make sure that the movie exists with this name on moviemaze AND that it has a poster available! When reporting don't forget to include the exact movie title (can be found in the movie manager of Moving Pictures).

    To add this scraper open the MediaPortal settings, go to plugins and open the Moving Pictures configuration, there click on the Importer Settings tab and click the Cover Art Data Sources button.
    In the popup click on the little down-arrow next to the + and select Add a new Data Source. Now you can pick the MovieMaze.xml file you downloaded and if you like move it upwards in the list with the green up-arrow.



    ------------[german]-------------
    Ich habe einen Cover Scraper für moviemaze.de geschrieben.
    Er wird nur Covers finden, wenn eure Filmtitel die deutsche Version sind. Falls ihr den ofdb Scraper für die Filmdetails verwendet sollte es eigentlich klappen.

    Falls ein Film nicht funktioniert, könnt ihr das hier gerne berichten. Schaut vorher aber bitte auf moviemaze.de, dass der Film dort existiert und auch Poster hat! Falls das so ist, vergesst bitte nicht den exakten Filmtitel mit anzugeben (steht im Movie Manager von Moving Pictures).

    Um den Scraper zu Moving Pictures hinzuzufügen öffnet die MediaPortal Konfiguration, geht zu den Plugins und dort in die Moving Pictures Settings. Als nächstes wechselt auf den Importer Settings Reiter und klickt den Cover Art Data Sources Button an. In dem Popup könnt ihr jetzt auf den kleinen Pfeil neben dem Plus klicken und Add a new Data Source anklicken. Wählt nun die MovieMaze.xml die ihr aus diesem Beitrag heruntergeladen habt aus. Wenn ihr wollt, könnt ihr sie mit dem grünen Pfeil weiter nach oben in der Importer Liste schieben.



    Bye,
    Shukuyen.

    Hi,
    would it be possible to import the tagline from moviemaze, because ofdb.de doesn't provide one. I always like a SHORT summary of a movie and the "Inhalt" of moviemaze is relative curt :)

    It would be possible, but it doesn't "fit" in this coverart scraper. You would have to make a new scraper node for movie details ...
    I don't know if it is possible to just get one field as fallback from an additional scraper, or if you would have to completely rely on moviemaze for you movie details.

    Hm I don't know if that would be a lot of work to write a scraper which only retrieve the "Inhalt" of moviemaze. If I remember rightly, moving pictures would use the 2nd scraper to retrieve the rest of informations.


    So if that wouldn't too much work for you, such a scraper would be really great :)
