Hi,

Currently I do this everytime I add a movie to my movie catalog:

1. Run the IMDb script to get most of the data (rating, title, director, genre, etc);
2. Run the Clubedevideo script to get the covers in portuguese, and the portuguese title and description;
3. Run the PTGate to get a new portuguese title and description, if available (they are better on this site, but sometimes Clubedevideo has movies that this one doesn't have, so I have to use those).

Now... Is there a way to do this automatically? Right now I have to keep checking and unchecking the boxes for the fields I want to update everytime I run each script.

Thanks!

It is possible to retrieve data from different websites in one script, but you need scripting skills for that and build your own script from existing ones (and update it when one of the sites change).

If you simply don't want to select/deselect which fields the scripts should import, you could edit the Clubedevideo and PTGate scripts to import only specific fields. That should be quite easy to do, I guess (just add some // to outcomment few lines which write data to fields).

Not sure if there's another way.
