IMDB.ifs script

SkyZip · Post by **SkyZip** » 2012-11-28 12:58:21

Since this morning the IMDB script isn't working anymore, on all searches it replies with an html-error. HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
Is it possible to fix this?

I already downloaded the latest script from march 15, but it didn't help.

Thank you in advance.

Agree. There is a problem. Using direct url works though.

Same problem here, but since yesterday. And not only IMDB for I tried at least three others: e-pipoca, amazon and americanas. W7 with UAC disabled and AMC versin 4.1.1. Any suggestions?

I temporarily fixed it. It seems that both the search URL and the structure of the search results page changed.
It seems to work, but there may still be problems (especially for episodes search: I haven't tested that).
Someone with more time may check that better and improve the fix.
It is available through "update scripts" or from http://update.antp.be/amc/scripts/ as usual.

*Update*

Fixed it myself. It's somewhat of a hack job since I just opened up the source and put in some new search terms since IMDB results are returned differently now.

Works with both popular searches ON and OFF.

Change FROM (LINE 92):

Code: Select all

Value := TextBetween(PageText, '.</td><td valign="top">', '</a>');

TO:

Code: Select all

Value := TextBetween(PageText, '<td class="primary_photo">', '<img src');

*/Update*

I'm using the 4.1.2 beta (downloaded today Dec 2) and the updated IMDB script (11-28).

It updates movies fine as long as it's not using batch mode.

When using either mode 1 or 2 (batch), it will connect to IMDB, pull some data, then quit. I know my titles should be ok because the first result of the list (when batch=0) is almost always correct.

Any ideas guys?

Thanks

Still having the same error with version 3.76 of the script... Any other ideas on how to get it fixed?

bad4u · Post by **bad4u** » 2013-01-12 12:38:08

Not still but again

They changed code again, a fix has been sent and should be available from server later today.

Thnxs!

Post by **antp** » 2013-01-12 21:24:12

Available as 3.77 on the server

Working like charm now... let's hope they don't screw up everything again...

Post by **antp** » 2013-01-13 10:26:04

A new update as 3.78 to try to fix the import of translated title, hoping it does not break something since that info is country-based.

hi, i am getting a new error. it says connecting to 207.171.166.22 and then after a while a pop up message appears with the error socket error # 10060 connection timed out. i am successfully getting the info however it sucks when doing batch updates as you have to close the dialog box each time it gets the info.

Post by **antp** » 2013-03-12 14:51:36

207.171.166.22 is an IP of Amazon, so check in the script options if you asked to import something special for images or so.
But for me it works if I put that IP in the address bar of my web browser, so maybe it is just a problem between you and that server...

parasmichael · Post by **parasmichael** » 2013-03-12 16:07:00

it cant resolve the address in my browser, i disabled the get image already in the options but it still is trying to connect to that server, any way i can disable it in the script? trying to search for the section in the code but i cant find it.

----------------------
update:

i figured it out, for some reason, my connection does not accept http://imdb.com, it needs to be http://www.imdb.com, i just edited some part of the code to force this.

thanks for the reply though.
