IMDB - stopped adding actors

Post by screach »

Hi,

I just started using ANT and I use IMDB for text and Amazon for the images. It all worked great until lately.

For some reason it stopped updating the 'Actors' field. I downloaded a new script in case it got corrupted. I also made sure the Acrtors field was checked and it was. Only the field is now empty.

Any ideas to correct this would be great.

thank you

PS. I changed the code according to the reply by baffab for Buroughs for a similar problem. No change!

Latest version of the script should work...
What value do you use for the "ActorsLayout" option, and for which titles (few examples) do you have the problem?

I'm not sure what you mean by "ActorsLayout" option. I did not find anything like this or when searching Help. I downloaded the lastest IMDB script but no actors. I made the change to the code like I mentioned and still no actors.

You can try some of these but actually none of the actors work now on any DVD:

10.5: Apocalypse
13th Warrior, The
24
3000 Miles to Graceland

I'm truly puzzled.
Again, thank you for your time,
John

I was able to fix the problem by downloading the IMDB script from

For me all these work too with the latest script...
By ActorsLayout option I mean the option with that name from the options list on the right of the scripts window (these can be changed by double-clicking on their name)

I was using the new script. So I tried changing the default of the field 'ActorsLayout' like antp suggested.

My original default was a 2, which use to work and when it did I got this type of layout:

"Wesley Snipes (as Jack Tuliver), Tamzin Outhwaite (as Kelly Anders), Deobia Oparei (as Spanky (as Dhobi Oparei)), Georgina Rylance (as Suza), Pete Lee-Wilson (as Alexsie), Serge Soric (as Mikhail), Elias Ferkin (as Pro 1), Bogdan Farkas (as Pro 2), Tomi Cristin (as Captain Szabo), Adrian Lukis (as Vanderbrink), Stephen Boxer (as Underhill), Adrian Pintea (as Graphini), Corey Johnson (as Tool), George Anton (as Banner), Tamer Hassan (as Rahood)"

I tried others and finally option #4 worked and now I get this, which by the way I like much better: :)

"Wesley Snipes .... Jack Tuliver
Tamzin Outhwaite .... Kelly Anders
Deobia Oparei .... Spanky (as Dhobi Oparei)
Georgina Rylance .... Suza
Pete Lee-Wilson .... Alexsie
Serge Soric .... Mikhail
Elias Ferkin .... Pro 1
Bogdan Farkas .... Pro 2
Tomi Cristin .... Captain Szabo
Adrian Lukis .... Vanderbrink
Stephen Boxer .... Underhill
Adrian Pintea .... Graphini
Corey Johnson .... Tool
George Anton .... Banner
Tamer Hassan .... Rahood"

Thank you so much everyone.
