kinopoisk

[Knighted]

Hi,

I used to use kinopoisk.ru all the time for my movie posters imports in the old version of pvd.  However, with this new version, the kinopoisk.ru plugin is shown as a bunch of accented characters, and does not work.  Any ideas how to solve this?

Thanks in advance.

Try these updated scripts

Thanks for the prompt reply, but those didn't help. 
Here's a screenshot of my import menu.

To fix the menu set Russian as a standard language for non-Unicode applications in Windows Regional settings.

So I fixed the cyrillic text in the menu by using Microsoft's applocale utility. I didn't want to change the standard language for all non-unicode applications to Russian.  It looks fine now, but the new kinopoisk scripts are still not working for me.  I get this in the status bar when I try, and then nothing happens.
I downloaded the old kinopoiskposter.dll plugin from an older release, and this version seems to work fine.

edit: I just tried setting Russian as the standard language for non-unicode applications globally in the windows regional setting to see if that would fix the new version of the script, but it didn't.

I'm running the x64 version of vista.  Is anyone else having similar issues?

  Hi just a quick word, I've got exactly the same issue.
  Could you tell me where you got the old plugin please?
  Thanks!

 D.

here you go.  i had to zip it to fit it under the 512k cap for attachments. just unzip it to your pvd plugin folder.

Strange, maybe it is really a Vista problem as on my English Windows XP with Russian set as default for non unicode apps all kinopoisk scripts work perfectly.

I'll check the whole thing under Vista in my spare time.

 Nostra, I have this problem under XP, as well as Vista (PC and Laptop), and the default language for Unicode is set to Russian.
 
Thank you Knighted for the zip file.
