[REL] IMDB ( via API )

[Munkey]

It works super fast. Still I am missing some basics.

• No actors pictures downloaded.

• Description is not full only tagline ... plus it is written "tagline" before the tagline description

• ratings the number of votes is missing.

• Title translation. Used to be pre-set. Only 1 title translation in my language. Not sure how it did it, maybe using the program language setting. Now I see there is the AKA feature but it is either everything or nothing. Weird since the field doesn't fit it all

1) Actors pictures is not basic. AMC doesn't have field for this.
2) Description is full for me. Post IMDb ID or screenshot where you don't get full description.
3) The number of votes not missing/basic because there is no such field in AMC.
4) If you want to get translated tiles by your country, add/change your country code in "userCountryCode" parameter, default is US.

Like I wrote before, personally I'm not interested in custom things, especially since it takes a whole day/days to implement new import.

Your options for custom fields:
Implement it yourself - PRs at GitHub are welcome.
Pay someone to implement it (I can provide such service).
Wait and hope that someone will implement it.

It could be a good idea to get them from another site.

Yeah, but for a different script, since other sites/HTML imports are out of scope for this project.

The API doesn't have actor images (as other important information like aspect ratio, awards, etc...) there is nothing we can do here about that because we only gather what is available inside the API in the first place.

The API has everything, where you got idea that it doesn't have something?

IMDb has enforced strict anti-bot protection through Cloudflare.

Are you sure it's using Cloudflare? I think it's using its own JavaScript challenge instead.

What I meant was right now this script can't gather that information, maybe I misspelled what I was trying to say because English is not my primary language.

Hello Munkey and thanks for your reply.

1. Actor pictures were part of the last imdb script so I thought it was basic. That's why I asked.
2. I double checked. It is true the description is full. Is that in the imdb script to the description it was added the storyline. So you see what is best. Personally I really prefer the whole storyline. Do as you see fit. Nevertheless, the word tagline is always at the beginning. See https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4712810 for instance.
3. Ssame thing. It was there in the previous imdb script. No biggies
4. Done and works. Thanks for the solution to this.

Thank you again for your wonderful work and help.

P.S. I tried other scripts. Most are outdated and/or don't work. Maybe a cleaning in order in the program package

I think I understood what you meant. That information can be gathered from the API, even right now.

Personally I really prefer the whole storyline.

I'll check it, maybe I'll add it as an option. Do you mean only storyline there or description + storyline?

Nevertheless, the word tagline is always at the beginning.

Yes, it indicates a tagline. What's wrong with it? At the moment it always adds a tagline, I can make it optional.

I don't remember. In the scrypt there were 2 options: 0=short summary, 1=long summary.
I think it was 0=tagline and 1=storyline

About the rest no biggie. I am already so thankful for everything.
It is handy to see the actors image but I guess it was just a habit and all the movies I have, already set with actors pictures. True, is nice to open the movie card and see immediately the main actors images but it is totally ok without them.

Number of votes, I will delete from the template I use. I don't even care. It was an option that I wasn't even thinking about and set on in the previous script.

If you do the storyline option. I will gladly wait for the update.

Thank you so much
