I didn't update the IMDb Actors script because the main IMDb script now has options to have the same behavior as the Actors script, e.g. the ActorsImagesMode option to import actor photos.
Or is there another exclusive feature from the Actors script?

No, sorry

chez moi ça fonctionne bien avec le script 2.68
Ça dépend peut-être d'un des paramètres du script?

That's one of the options: these are displayed on the right of the scripts list, for the selected script, and you can double-click on it to change it.

Thanks, I'll update it on my server

From the HTML template? You can simply remove the items that you don't want

Code: Select all

1.5.0 - (2026/01/27) - New feature: Added Replace_delimiter parameter
                       New feature: Added Trivia importing

Thanks

Oui, la version avec API est plus limitée, car tout n'est pas disponible via l'API.

Munkey wrote: 2026-01-26 09:43:22 The last two I already implemented, please test them [download the script from GitHub]. You can set delimiter in the parameters.

Thanks. For publishing it on my server, do you plan to change the version to 1.4.1? Or are you still doing changes before finishing the new version?

We had that issue with IMDb a few days ago (cf the IMDb thread) but it went back as before shortly after. They probably block non-browser requests from time to time, possibly depending on the load on their servers.
But as far as I know, there is no workaround in case it is blocked like what you ...

Comme tu veux, difficile de dire lequel tiendra le plus longtemps.
Il y a plus de risque que celui-ci ait un souci dès qu'IMDb change quelque chose, l'autre est plus "stable", mais il pourrait aussi être bloqué un jour.

Good news
Maybe they are just experimenting. Or possibly they block at the times they have too much traffic. That's what I do with my site imcdb.org: when the site is too slow the bots are blocked.

What PostPage3() does with unicode characters in query?


Good question... As AMC does not support unicode, technically for it there is no unicode character in the query, just ANSI (locale codepage). But the server is expecting unicode.
The only way to handle unicode is using UTF8, as long as ...

What do you mean by "three slots" ? It should just save for the current movie that you import

Unfortunately it won't be so easy :/
It seems that indeed AMC is blocked, but it is not targeted explicitly to AMC via user agent: they use some filtering that detects bots (Firefox using AMC's user agent works fine, for example).
I tried to use what was created for Filmaffinity, via cURL, but it ...

I don't think that it affects anything. I created new catalog with that encoding, it shows those names properly there.

Indeed the encoding in catalog properties has no effect on the program, it is used only if you store the catalog in XML and want to re-used the file elsewhere.

At the same ...

Many scripts are probably outdated, unfortunately.
Some work because they are maintained by some users, but I can't maintain all of them myself.

Thanks, updated

Issue reported via e-mail:

Thanks, it works now, but the interpreters are being brought up with a comma at the end of each one.

I think imdb is trying to block scraping. The API works though.

Maybe it's the time to fully embrace the API? It's there any way to extract actor images using that method?


Or they just made a tiny change in their page, on a tag that was used by the script to start the analysis.
I'll take a ...
