As the layout of the "combined" page is the same as it is on normal page - only with some more informations added - it should work fine with the other options, but I did not test it in detail - so maybe there could be problems. The 3 films I tested worked fine with options set to standard.
The pictures are not downloaded anyway, I was saying that for page size (if people do batch-import for example).
Note that I haven't yet added the script to my server. I'll put it on a temporary location this evening, so people can test it to be sure that it works well before include it officially.

any hints?
Which script version are you talking about ?

Thanks, although when I deleted the download link my intention was to find some more time for testing before uploading the script again
So, who wants to test this script now should be aware of that he's a kind of beta tester .. sorry

Hi,
Beta testing? No Problem :P
Here's what i found out yesterday:
Version: IMDB.com Script Version 2.10 bugfixed (20070205/bad4u)
Batchmode set to "0" downloading only Description and Actors:
About 60% of my movies now have fullcredits, 10% seem to have no actors at all, 30% still have only 15 actors.
Examples:
Basic (
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0264395/) - script downloads only 15 actors
Die another day (
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0246460/) - script downloads fullcredits
2 Fast 2 Furious (
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0322259) - script downloads no actors
When Batchmode is set to "1" or "2" downloading only Description and Actors the script works like the old one ... 15 actors.
Thats all for now, hope this helps a bit for fixing. Thanks alot to antp and bad4u for the effort.

Are these scripts legal?
it seems that "all" content at imdb is their property and they do not want to share. what that mean is if you want to look at the title, trailer, etc then go to their site and view it...

When I started to add scripts to AMC I contacted IMDB, they said that they knew that several programs where doing that, but as long as the program says that info comes from IMDB it is was OK with them.

IMDB script version 3.47:
http://www.bad4u.741.com/full/IMDB.ifs (do NOT click, copy link into a NEW browser window !)
Fixes the out of range problem for some movies, when variable Value on writers/producers import becomes empty.

Hi...
In the option CommentType = 1 the script gets the 10 most useful comments, is there a way to make it only gets the 2 or 3 most useful?
Thanks.

Sure. Search for
Code: Select all
FullValue := TextAfter(FullValue, 'comment useful :-</small><br>');
while FullValue <> '' do
begin
somewhere around line 448 and change it to
Code: Select all
FullValue := TextAfter(FullValue, 'comment useful :-</small><br>');
for count := 1 to 3 do
if FullValue <> '' then
begin
Now option "10 most useful comments" will download only the first 3 of these comments. It is 10 by default, as there are up to 10 comments on the IMDB page and it downloads all of them. As you can guess from the code, changing count variable will result in different number of comments then.

Change line
Code: Select all
MovieNumber := TextBetween(PageText, '<input type="hidden" name="auto" value="legacy/title/tt', '/"><input');
to
Code: Select all
MovieNumber := TextBetween(PageText, '<input type="hidden" name="auto" value="legacy/title/tt', '/"><');
on the script.
An updated script will be available from the server soon

So do I
They changed the
><input on that line to
><button . I decided to keep it more general, as Bowly said it's not for all movies. Maybe there are movies that still have the old code, and this way it should work for both. Unfortunately I didn't find such during my tests. So if there are still other movies with problems, someone please report

The new script does not download trivia or awards on a few movies such as Live Free or Die Hard and Watchmen.
Any help will be appreciated... :)

I tried both movies you mentioned and some more, and all get trivia and awards correct with different settings (full/short trivia, import to description/comments).
You should download latest version 3.48 again and check your script option settings (on the right side of scripting window). Maybe you lost previous trivia and awards settings somehow ..
