IMDb plugin maintenance issues

[Ivek23]

Hi, is there any idea when the plugin may be fixed?

Yes, it will be necessary to wait. Plugin will be repaired, when the Nostra will come back.

i tried the script (thanks Ivek!) but unfortunately it breaks the auto creation of actors, resulting in any actor that wasn't previously in my database being created with a blank name field which (for my purposes) sadly makes it unusable.

Thanks

If the settings are the same as in the figure, it would be a script may also be used for data transmission.

Current temporary solution:

IMDB Movie Photo Script
v 0.1.2.0

imdb plugin is not working for me again...unable to get cover. Anyone else also having this problem?

Confirmed. IMDB Movie Plug-in is no longer transferred posters for movies.

Since Nostra currently absent for some time, and until then, when he will return and repair plugin, here is the IMDB Movie Photo script as a temporary solution to the problem.

IMDB Movie Photo Script is attached in the first post.

The IMDB plugin stopped also updating TV Episodes (i.e.Homeland Season 4, Not imported).

Gear

Hi, all.  I'm having major problems with PVD freezing up when I import using the IMDB plugin.  It's kind of random, but I never seem to be able to import more than 3 or 4 movies before it freezes up again.  When this happens, the only thing I can do is close PVD with Windows Task Manager, open the program back up, and try again.  I don't believe the freezing has occurred when importing from AllMovie or any other plugins... just IMDB.  What might be causing this to happen?

Has anybody news about the IMDB plugin update/repair estimation date?

NOstra,

A Christmas gift, for us, please. please...make it work again.

It's nice to hear that it works, thank you for your feedback.

Today have occurred or there are new changes in the IMDB web sites. Due to these changes we encounter difficulties in transferring data with IMDB movie plugins than with the majority of my IMDB movie skripts.

Trouble is, for example, an incorrect transposition of the original title to the IMDB plugin or not the operation of most IMDB skripts in data transmission.

Changes are also in the IMDB web pages as well as in the source code on the IMDB web sites.

Do we have instructions for setting up imdb import right now that works?

No, and probably not many more in the Videodb.info news topic

IMDB plugin v0.9.8.26

It works for the transfer of information only from IMDB Main pages. And here no transfer of posters, ratings, producer, composer, description as well as information related additional IMDB web pages.

"IMDB Main pages, have no transfer of posters, ratings, producer, composer, description as well as information related additional IMDB web pages."  Not to mention "Original Title" which for a great deal of movies will show up in PVD database as "Var Ue_t0=window.ue_t0||+new Date();" which while scanning you are constantly having to select to "Preserve All Copies" in the database.

This issue has been going on since about the beginning of 2016 when IMDB.com changed their website look until now; almost half a year ago and still I have not got the solution and basically have to keep enter all information by hand (copy/paste) from IMDB's site.

Has anyone as yet come up with a solution since IMDB.com changed their website look?

Unfortunately, this can be corrected only Nostra, which is a long time absent.

You can do so by IMDB scripts, which links can be found at IMDB Movie Links topic or in Scripts and Templates board.  You may find it in Support board more topics and description of problems and temporary solution for Imdb (here is about 10 to 20 topic on this theme).
