Thank you very much Nephilim, but it seems that for France MTSA is no more using the allocine.fr website as source (as it was in the past) but maybe yahoo.fr (?)
A lot of cities are missing in yahoo, mine is not available (Montelimar) so that your new version works well for big french cities but not for the others.
Is it possible to use again allocine, as it is the best and more complete source?
:D

    Nephalim I've tried downloading the beta 4 times now and each time Win7 says the file is invalid. Also tried opening it with 7-zip with the same result. Are others able to open this zip successfully?

    Thanks all. I downloaded and installed the beta on my main HTPC and it's working fine.
    On the notebook client where I couldn't unzip the file there are still some issues. But because of the compressed file errors it's probably some issue on the notebook itself.
    Thanks to Nephalim for the beta.:D

    I still use allocine... I'll try with your city, maybe there is a bug in the grab.

    I'm sorry you're right (I've been a bit busy)! What do you mean with 'delayed fanart and cover loading'?
    Extra feature are not available in your country (for now), try them in 'English' mode.
    I'll check the other bugs.
    Thank you very much for your feedback!

    Have you tried the extra features?

    Thank you all.

    Bye,

    Yeah, I thought that was the reason for disabled button.

    Let me sum the testing:

    * When mtsa is done, i get message that 0 days was updated (Croatia, cinemas in Rijeka). But I can still see new movies so more than 0 days were updated..

    * Can you implement delayed fanart and cover loading + two fanarts (for nice smooth transitions between fanarts)? (By this i mean that fanart would not get loaded instantly when scrolling through list but only when user settles on an item. It would make scrolling much faster. For help with the implementation of all this you can check out the MovingPictures code ;)

    * Option "Use multiple lines for the NextUpdate label" does not work. Label is always multi line, when checked or unchecked..

    * For some movies (for example Sex & The City 2 or Croatian "Seks i grad 2") I get covers (perhaps fanart too) from old movie (Sex & The City)

    hello Nephilim,

    First of all congratulations for your child and thank you for your plugin.


    I did a comparison test between the site and AlloCiné MediaPortal for France.

    in the plugin settings, for example if I chose Paris (75000), no movie theater does. For me, Chaumont (52000) no problem.

    Test number one: the theatrical currently

    Comments: dates and times of films are well managed by MediaPortal cons in the trailer is in English while on the site AlloCiné it is in French.


    Test number two: box office


    Allociné Box Office France.jpg Box Office.jpg

    Comments: On the site there are 19 films AlloCiné this in their list, on MediaPortal I only see the first five films. always the same problem for the trailers.



    Test number three: coming soon

    Comments: Problem as box office movies are not all


    I hope this test will be able to help you improve your plugin

    thank you again for your dedication

    Have you tried the extra features?
    New features??
    I'm just happy that it gets the cinema times and plays the trailers!
    What else can it do??

    Just a thought - ever thought of combining the development of this with the MyTrailers guys?
    Maybe adding a 'Now Showing section to MyTrailers??
    It would be kind cool to see a trailer - find the cinema time and go see the movie!
