The best solution to the problem of reviews could be a script that could import the text of reviews from the URL of a page which has that review. Thus, for instance, someone looking to import two reviews of Superman (2025) [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5950044], ran the script and provided it with ...

But since I've been using the other script for a long time, I would like to ask if there is a possibility to add some options:
- I use different separator for Country and Category. I use slash '/', rather than comma ','
- I format actors as "actor (as character), actor (as character), ..."
- I use ...

No more nonsense reviews!

So, is not possible to import the video format? (Aspect ratio), or there is something Im not understanding? The other script automatically add that data into the specified field.

"Video Format" field is the information of your physical files, aka "AVC", "MPEG4" & ect, all those fields below ...

I don't know if I'm doing something wrong but your script is not importing the Video Format


The “Video Format” field and all other fields below the “File Path” are for file information, not something to be imported from IMDb.


Also, could you add more options into the imagesize to get posters ...

If you thought it was very fast before, try it now.

Munkey, would it be possible to incorporate one more feature in your wonderful script, please?: It would be great if the script could import "runtime/s" of the movies because that helps one correctly label theatrical releases, director's cuts, unrated cuts, etc.


Added this feature in v1.0.7 ...

Waiting for the [actor ... character] format and the tagline import now.


Both features are implemented now:


1.0.6 - (2025/07/02) - Fixed rare Cloudflare/API timeout bug by changing a credits endpoint to a faster one.

I am not registered on IMDB so I did not enable the user ID, but my batchmode is set to 0 and I got the 504 gateway time-out error on both the titles that you referred to the very first time I tried importing information for them. Other titles continue to work fine.

Thanks for the test, that ...

New version:

1.0.5 - (2025/06/29) - Added support for "My ratings" field. [IMDB_userID must be set]
- Added CreditsLimit option.
- Reworked Director/Writer/Actors.

v1.0.4 should support all fields. Please report if something is not working.

Looks OK for me as it is.

Thanks for info, fixed those few country names in v1.0.2

Thanks :)
It is indeed much simplier than parsing the pages. We'll see how long this API stays available.


You are welcome!
It's up for few years, so I hope they will not obfuscate access to it.


The time I create a github account and install software locally I see you already changed it on ...

antp wrote: 2025-06-27 06:51:35 Thank you to MrObama2022 for all the work (and to Munkey for the alternative script)
I'll soon update AMC's install package to include both of these, now that it seems stable

I would let few days more for them to be tested.

I wrote alternative script for IMDB, it's using original IMDb's API -> viewtopic.php?t=43842

Alternative IMDb script to get info from original API. Aims to be simpler, faster & reliable.
