. How to replicate the look of the preview shots
Will take just a few minutes to get the same exact look on your AMC catalog.

- First of all, you need a custom background.
You can download on the internet, set a film still or make a custom one in HD. Just change the category of the extra pic to 'Background'.
- For a better view, install the 2 fonts ('Open Sans Light' and 'Open Sans Regular') included on the folder 'fonts'.
- You can put a disc label or banner - using the extra pic category 'Disc Label' (400x400 px). Will be displayed on the upper side of your poster.
- The red icon will appear on marked films to represent watched movies (or borrowed, according with your preference).
- The case is defined on the field 'Item Type': DVD, Blu-Ray, Blu-Ray 3D (and others).


Taking a trip down, we got all these icons and buttons on the footer.
I will sort them in a numerical order:


1 - Play your Movie: URL or file path for your film (click to open);
2 - IMDB: Individual URL on IMDB (click to open) ;
3 - Certification: Show the MPAA film-rating (and others) ;
4 - Media Type: DVD, Blu-Ray or BD-3D (others icons included);
5 - Resolution: 480,720,1080 (etc);
6 - Aspect Ratio: Icon for the aspect ratio.
The IMDB script imports the field with : 1 on the end. Ex: 2.35 : 1.
The issue we got is to show the icon, we need something like this: 2.35 (without the final : 1).
We got 2 options: edit the fields manually or make a simple tweak on the IMDB script. So...

Code: Select all

Search for the line containing "// Aspect Ratio"
Below that, there are a few lines that handle the import of aspect ratio (the block indented in a begin/end).
Just before the four lines containing CanSetField/SetField, you can insert the following line:
  Value := StringReplace(Value, ' : 1', '');

(thx Ant for the tip)

7 - Trailer: Custom field for trailer links (click to open);
I use the Allocine script - for this script, use the settings below:
Bande-Annonce: 3 | Langue Bande/ Ann: 1 |
Script Parameters - Champ perso: Bande-Annonce: Trailer

8 - Audio format: Icon of the audio codec.
Only one value will be displayed, for that set the 'MultipleValuesAudioFormat' option from the IMDb script to 0 (or change manually).

That's it
