Hi,
Do you have an example of movie? I tested one and it kept the accent on the name

Il faut désactiver les options et champs inutiles dans l'autre script, ça l'accélérera probablement.
Pour les noms des acteurs dans la recherche, ça n'apparaît pas (plus ?) sur la page de recherche donc a priori plus moyen de l'avoir.

Bonjour,
J'ai corrigé le script IMDb principal qui avait le même problème, mais est-ce que celui-ci a encore un intérêt ?
J'ai l'impression que le script principal a été modifié précédemment pour intégrer les images comme le faisait celui-ci (option ActorsImagesMode à mettre à 1).

I fixed the IMDb script again (version 5.5.08), as the search was showing blank results.
I also fixed actors' roles.
I added a check to avoid importing actor images when ActorsImagesMode = 0, as these were always imported no matter what option was set there (so if you want these but they are not ...

Thanks!
Often it is indeed just small changes like this, I didn't had time in the last days to check what was the issue.
The rest of the code is probably useless, from older versions of the site. Some day some cleaning should be done, but just in case old pages are sometimes returned in some cases ...

I'll try to take a look at it next week (I don't have time right now), if nobody else does it before.

Hi,
If it is the main IMDb script, it has to be updated.
Cf viewtopic.php?p=93422#p93422
In the meantime the script "IMDb (via API)" should work.

¡¡Por fin vuelve a funcionar el foro!!


Note that when it was not available, you could login using the username "guest" and the password "antp.be"
As said above, it was blocked due to a bot attacking it, in case I have to do that again you could find the username/password on the contact page of ...

I'm sharing the code for you experts to be able to have at least a foundation to work on,


It depends on the cases, but sometimes the problem with AI code is that it is horrible to work on it, especially for cases like this when it is not easy to clearly indicate the expected result. But maybe ...

Hi,
Indeed this kind of characters cause issue: AMC is an old software, so it does not handle unicode.
Only basic characters are supported, i.e. ASCII :
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASCII
And also the local character set, depending in your Windows settings.
For Western Europe it is this one: https ...

I think the best is just migrate to the api method because imdb is changing things every week to make us crazy (I think they are doing this to avoid data scrapping)
I don't think they change on purpose for that. It seems they are modernizing their system (hence using more json than just generate ...

I suppose they continued to make changes to their pages.
I'll try to take a look, in the meantime the IMDb API script can help to get data, even if it does not give as much info.

Can it be changed in the script directly? Or must be done somewhere else?

The useragent is in the file ExternalCurlHandler.pas
You seen in the first lines a variable "curlUserAgent = ..."

Thanks, I updated it on my server as an official version, with that user agent, we'll see how long it works that way :)

I had issue with bots "attacking" the forum with too many requests at once.
I removed the password login, we'll see also how long it works that way or if I'm forced to put it back ...

If IMDb is doing many changes it may be better to use the API version until they finish their change, to do all at once when they are done.
But if some info can't be retrieved at all via the site, but others are not available via the API, maybe for the future we should combine both in one script then.

Hidden rows can't be extracted indeed, we had the same issue with the translated titles.
These rows are not really hidden, they are not in the page, and are fetch via javascript from the server when you click the link to show more.
It is difficult (impossible? if they protected well their service ...

I test the curl call with no headers and the AMC's user agent and... it's works

FilmAffinity is not blocking AMC by its useragent string, maybe an outdated openssl?


Did you test with the suggested user agent I posted here above, or with the old one that AMC uses?
'Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Ant ...

ant, this is a link to final script:
https://mega.nz/file/tRMAxC5a#OUBLTEZGUPNCcyiFnBG3SvxEUknLVezih9EHhh1lQJU



Thanks, I'll check that when I've some time :)


About include it officially in AMC, if you're concerned about whether filmaffinity might take some action against AMC for bypassing ...

Hi,
I didn't really follow how all this subject evolved in the last weeks, what can I say to users who ask what to do?
I suppose that the current system still relies on cURL then, seeing that the script here above seems to require ExternalCurlHandler.
Where is the last version of that one? Maybe I ...
