[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 1175650, member: 18896"] Nope sorry, Moving-Pictures fires up the IMDb+ scraper-script, and I tell it movie.score = x.xx value. Then Moving-Pictures decides how that is stored, and the skin for the Moving-Pictures plugin decides how that is displayed. I am unable to tell MovPic that I used A for movie.score or B for movie.score, which would then indeed allow a MovPic skin to do what you want. Perhaps [USER=52219]@ltfearme[/USER] will be willing to entertain that idea though. It would simply be one extra field such as "movie.score_source" that scraper-scripts could then store a string in. In that case I could store stuff such as IMDb+ (for combined average), IMDb-single, IMDb-metacritics, RT-critics-fresh, RT-critics-rotten, RT-audience-fresh, RT-audience-rotten and it would be easy for a skin developer to then simply display <image>${movie.score_source}.png</image> to get the result you are after. I can then also take it one step further and store 0.00 with IMDb-Failure, RT-Failure or RT-Missing when a score is actually missing, versus the current situation where you have no idea what went wrong (without looking at movingpictures.log file). PS: You can somewhat do what you want already if you rely fully on just RT ratings, because a skin can do math, so it can do stuff like "if (movie.score > 5.0) { show fresh image} else { show rotten image }". You would need to talk with a Moving-Pictures skin developer then for the skin you use. [/QUOTE]
