It populates the title, rating, image and URL. I intend to expand this to support year and length at least. I may extend further to editorial and actors if I have time, but since I don't care about that data myself, this is unlikely.


Yeah, as I noted originally, I only do the title, rating ...

I can't recreate the problem with the latest version of the script. Try downloading from this url:

and testing those movies again.

Excellent!

Thanks for that, issue now fixed.

I've also resolved the other issue with a horrible nasty mean hack.

But it works.

So, unless anyone knows of any other faults, I'm happy for it to be released.

Cheers,

The only two issues I am aware of with the above script are:

1) If there is no image in the returned data for a selected item, it crashes.
2) I use the URL thing to pass the item id around, which means you can't view page in a meaningful way.

For 1, I can't now find an item on Amazon that has this ...

I'm already aware of a couple of issues that I need to work out, I shall let you know when I think it's a release quality item.

Yes, I'm aware of that, I was requesting it as a future feature.

My amazon script has been posted as a [BETA] [REL], and I've just used it to replace the rubbish IMDB images in 300 odd films with nice UK DVD covers from amazon.co.uk

Terribly sorry, appears when I uploaded it earlier I put it in a sub-folder. The link above now works correctly. I'm now fixing a load of my AMC entries using it to give it a pretty good amazon.co.uk thrashing.

Hi,

I have just finished a beta release of a new Amazon script.

This script uses the Amazon Web Services interface instead of relying on parsing the public web site HTML. AS such, it won't be constantly broken by UI changes made by the Amazon development team.

Furthermore, the script supports ...

I'm aware of the statics, but I'd like to do:

if GetStatic('SettingsMade') = '' then begin
// render a pick list for each of the three critical options.
// then call new SetOption() function to set those options.
SetStatic('SettingsMade') = '1';
end;

Then use GetOption() to retreive the ...

Yeah, that is what I meant. Ok Cheers.

I'm working in my favourite programmers editor instead of the script editor, so hadn't noticed.

I'd like to request an API to set the parameters, there is one to read them, and a way of setting persistent info. I'd like my script to be able to prompt the user ...

Cheers, is there any documentation of the comment header?

I'm looking for an example script that parses XML returned from a website.

I'm sick of the Amazon script not working, and the lack of a .co.uk variant and since I already have an Amazon WS developer key, I'm going to produce a global amazon, WS based, data retrieval script. But I'd like an example ...

I'm looking for an Amazon UK script, to add all my UK only tv series etc to my catalogue.

I've tried searching the forums and have been unable ot locate one so far.

Cheers,

Mike
