IMDB brings back bad movie poster

Post by Robertg_s »

I have just trying adding a few movies using the IMDB script. I have noticed the pictures are small and when you look in the actual list they appear blurry. This is almost they way we had the IOHandler problem a while back. I tried to update the scripts figuring may they were out of date but it still happens. Has something changed recently?

Thanks for any help

You're lucky that I had some time this morning :D
I updated the script as version 3.89
Not sure it will work in all cases, I tested with two movies only
It is weird because the HTML code that IMDb sends back to AMC is a little different than the one sent back to Firefox, not sure how long it will work then...

I added at the same time an option for a medium poster size (for those who want better than the tiny small pic, but still not a huge pic)

Unable to update the scripts

Post by Robertg_s »

I tried to update the script but still shows it as 3.86. Am I doing something wrong as I click the update scripts at the top of the list and do not see the 3.89 version there or when I select the script and double click on it nothing works.
I am rather new at working with scripts so I could use a little help.

Thanks
Robert

Normally when you start the "update scripts" after a short time you should see IMDb in the popup list, then you double-click it and after again a short time it should show again the list, without IMDb in it.
Note that after update you may have to close and re-open the scripts list to see the new version number of the IMDb script.

I finally got the update to IMDB 3.89 in and working. Although from time time I use the copy from another source for my pictures.

But I just wanted to say thanks for helping and how much I truly enjoy the software.
