Currently I am using moviemeter.nl to retrieve details for my films, it's quite accurate and the info is in Dutch, which is better for me. However, I don't like the rating system on that site (or the raters ;) and I would like to be able to grab tag-lines.

Would it be possible to grab those fields separately from IMDB, or combine calls from that script somehow?

thx,
Patrick

    Try the following:

    1) Duplicate the moviemeter script.. give it a new name, ID and version
    2) Remove the part from the new moviemeter script where it fills the rating
    3) Setup your data providers so that the new moviemeter script is primary and the imdb script is secondary

    now imdb will fill the rating because moviemeter doesn't provide it.

    edit: just remembered that moviemeter isn't a script anymore :/ anyway you can also do the reverse then.. make a new imdb script that only does the Title, Year and the Rating and moviemeter will fill the rest :p

    So you succesfully made a scraper with imdb rating and moviemeter info? If so, can I borrow it :cool:
