[QUOTE="hobbes487, post: 82500, member: 14634"] Ok, so i have spent a bit of time contenplating your ideas. This is possible to implement and I am almost done with it. The problem with this though is that it is slower than before because it has to parse [url]http://www.netflix.com/Queue[/url] instead of the RSS feed of the queue. (the feed doesn't contain the rating info). Another problem is that the description for each movie is not in the parsed page. It is only in the RSS feed, so i would have to parse each MovieInfo page to get the description and that would be extra slow. This has the same issues as above. All of the RSS feeds are very fast and simple to display. In order to know which ones have been rated, it will have to parse the actual page (i.e. [url]http://www.netflix.com/Top25?sgid=2442&lnkctr=LhcSubCategory2442[/url]) and not the feed. This would be extra slow because it would have to parse each individual MovieInfo page for each movie in the list to determine if there is a playable trailer or not. This would suffer the same speed decrease as getting all the ratings. These are great ideas, but i'm not even going to think about how to implement them until the rest are taken care of. [/QUOTE]
