Ant Movie Catalog 4.2.2 BETA

[antp]

Following the "SSL fix test" version published last month (on this page), here is a proper beta version, labelled 4.2.2.0:

=> automatic install: http://update.antp.be/amc/beta/amc_install_beta.exe
=> manual install (portable version): http://update.antp.be/amc/beta/amc_ful_beta.rar
edit: same link, now 4.2.2.1

This is a beta version, so please BACKUP YOUR DATA and be careful when using this version.

In addition to the TLS 1.2 support (which should solve HTTPS problems encountered lately on a few sites) this version also includes the latest MediaInfo version.
I also cleaned the import/export list by removing some obsolete formats.
Updated scripts for DVDFR, FilmAffinity and MovieCovers are included.

The latest version of MediaInfo does not seem to run on Windows XP any more (to be tested/confirmed, I don't know if that was already the case of the previous versions). In case the lack of Windows XP support is a problem for some users, I could try to arrange something to support both old and new versions of the library, as the interface didn't change, only the version numbering.

I still didn't reimplement the GetCookies & DeleteCookies functions for the scripts, as none of the published scripts were using them, and it was less easy than expected to bring these back in Indy version 10.

So the things to test:
- The install itself, as it is the first time I build it since long time (previous ones were done by Soulsnake)
- Getting info from sites via script; by default now it uses UTF-8, so it is possible that a few scripts have accents problems. If you find such case, please report the script and the movie causing the problem.
- Import & Export, in case I broke something when cleaning that
- MediaInfo import

I just tried this new version, and for now I do not find any problem.
I am VERY HAPPY with the update of MediaInfo, before it failed a lot in the video and audio bitrate.
Thanks antp, I appreciate your time and your work very much, I am very grateful.

Good Morning,
Thanks for the update, much appreciated.
On IMDB I am still getting IOHandler Value is not valid.
This started to happen with the previuos version of AMC.
Only started yesterday, thats why I have tried the beta version but same problem.
Any ideas?
Kind Regards Davezn

If it happens also with the version 4.2.1 that's related to the script, not the program

Hello.
Yes, after updating from 4.2.1 to 4.2.2 Beta, I again can script-access IMDb.
But on accessing OFDb.de (which still works fine with 4.2.1) I got the following error message:

Error connecting with SSL.
error:1408F10B:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_RECORD:wrong version number

Am I doing something wrong? Thanks for your help.

[antp]

It is a problem with the ofdb site itself:
viewtopic.php?f=12&t=6870
I'll see later if I can fix that

Ho modificato lo script mymovies.it ed esso funziona con la vecchia versione 4.2.1.3 ma non più con la 4.2.2. (IoHandler Error). Manca la "compatibilità all'indietro" ? aggiungo il nuovo script (il sito usa entrambi i protocoli http e https):

I modified the script mymovies.it and it works with the old version 4.2.1.3 but no longer with 4.2.2. (IoHandler Error). Is "backward compatibility" missing? I add the new script (the site uses both http and https protocols):

Code: Select all

 
  
   
   Resolved!

That happens when you try to fetch a http page that redirects to a https one.
In this case if I search for "rogue one", it first fetches https://www.mymovies.it/database/ricerc ... rca+%C2%BB
then it tries to fetch http://www.mymovies.it/dizionario/recen ... p?id=77693 which redirects to https://www.mymovies.it/film/2016/starw ... yrogueone/ hence the error
I don't know how this worked in version 4.2.1, as far as I know that behaviour was similar. Maybe the error occurs only for movies where one result is found?
Isn't it possible to use just https and not http to avoid such redirections?

As you said, it worked in version 4.2.1 and now it doesn't.
Anyway your suggestion is very precious and I'll work in that direction.

Using the 4.2.2.0 beta and IMDB everything is working fine for me upgrading over the top of my 4.2.1 beta.
Running on Win 10 x64.

THANK-YOU!

[antp]

As you said, it worked in version 4.2.1 and now it doesn't.

And it still works? (in case the site changed something on its side...)

[fulvio53s03]

In my tests mymovies.it is OK with AMC 4.2.2 but someone says there are problems....
Wait for next update (after having error examples).


Edit 2018.04.26: RESOLVED!

Merci Antoine, trop sympa de continuer à améliorer AMC !

[Mguel]

a pity its not workig under linux/wine: "Could not load SSL Libruary" and 4.2.1 version gives IOHandler not valid error, with old script and newer version of ant needed for latelst imdb script.
Cheers

[antp]

Strange that it does not work, as previous version was using a similar system.
You also took the files libeay32.dll & ssleay32.dll provided with the program? (these are the openssl libs)

yes they are in the same folder the exe is.

just to make sure I repeated the process and same errors again with 4.2.2beta version: IOHandlers before updating imdb script, SSL error after updating and ssl dlls on the same folder as moviecatalog.exe

thanks for answering!

[antp]

I don't have ideas on what to test, but as I use the Indy library which is rather popular in Delphi development the problem may have occurred with other programs. Maybe with that info (Indy 10 library and a program made in Delphi 7) it may help to find info/support on Wine's side?

Updated beta (4.2.2.1) to fix the problem with ODFb website.
Same download link at the top of the page.

Registered just to say thanks! I was very nervous about updating the program as I have it setup just the way I like it and was worried an update would mess-up all my settings. Not so, everything functions just fine so far. This is the best software to use for movie cataloging and I've been using it over 10 years now. GREAT, GREAT program and work. Gonna go over to download site and send a paypal donation again. THANKS again.
