CHANGELOG
* fix composer, actors, writers and producers

IMDB is switching to a new json format in its javascript page. This fix should work with both new and old format.

Only tested on 4 movies.
Thanks :)
If I find some time for it, I can try to also help, but I always have so many things to do in the few free time available :(

Great to see ExternalCurlHandler master comeback :D
Mainly I use FilmAffinity to get information, but after use it I update some fields with IMDB because I like more the information get from IMDB on these fields. Producer because IMDB gives names and not company, actors because have actor name and his character name, country because filmaffinity only gets one in the case have more than one, and picture because IMDB usually gives similar quality with less filesize.

I let to show the bugs I see to help improve script. First my settings script are this.

1- When get information from movies and TVseries, only get actors name, not the character names

2- When get information from movies and TVseries, don't get any information on comments field

3- When get information from TVseries, don't get any information on producer, writer and composer. This bug is only in TVseries and it's not new, I had it from long time ago but didn't comment before. I try to change UserCountry but it's the same.

4- As I comment I use it to update information after FilmAffinity script and I have two kinds of error when the script is trying to get information from IMDB related to URL Fields.Excluded setting. If the URL it's not excluded there are no error and the script get the IMDB url.
When the URL it's excluded and the URLfield it's empty the script gives the error IOHandler value is not valid
When the URL it's excluded and the URLfield has a FilmAffinity URL because I'm updating fields the script gives the error HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden
Seems like when the URL Fields.Excluded setting it's active, the script try to access to a URL using the value in URLfield. 403 it's the error that gives FilmAffinity without using ExternalCurlHandler.pas

5- When the script it's running and select a movie after the search, if finally for some reason on movie information window I click on "Skip" or "abort" button or close the window this kind of lines are add to scripts.ini file, and finally it makes so big. Maybe it's a debug information?
