Suggestion for Ivek23

[deazo]

 Hi all,

 I'm sorry for putting this on you Ivek23 but I have been dying for seeing a Rotten tomatoes ratings import for PVD.
 I cannot help to notice that you were able to fix the IMDB script so that it could take the IMDB ratings....
 Would you be able to do the same for RT ratings?

 I do not care about any other info coming from RT, only their ratings.

 I don't know if this can help you, but there is a Chrome extension that brings RT ratings into the IMDB page.
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/imdbrt/dhmlipoakdghhhemjmefopbcdcobiphp
 If you install the extension, then go into your chrome extension manager you get access to the script (background html) it uses.

 I wonder if that script could not help you (or anyone here) to "transcript" it for PVD.

 I hope I am making sense, and I know this has been requested a while ago, but RT ratings are soooo much better than IMDB's that I constantly check them out on the IMDB page using the extension.

 It is perfectly OK for you to tell me to bugger off and delete that request 

 Thank you for your efforts (past and future).

 D.

No, I do not mind. I need a bit more time for a little more detailed look into this. It is also true, it will be a bit less time to the end of this week. When I know more, I will messages.

[Ivek23]

I took a look at that, what you ask, but as far as I see, it will not work.
I use Firefox and there is a similar Greasemonkey script
(IMDB_-_add_Rottentomatoes_info)  shows the same as Chrome extension.

I'll explain for example Casablanca (1942) movie:

So one as another extension in Casablanca (1942) movie for IMDB,  leaves no piece of code in the source code page, that this could be used for example, Imdb Movie script.

It is possible (maybe, we'll see) it would be well done RT script for Casablanca (1942) movie on RT (and other movies).

I wonder which part of the rating you are interested in:
first, second or both of the percentages, or anything else.

Maybe will then simple RT script written to the end of the week.

Maybe will then simple RT script written to the end of the week.

With a little effort I managed do simple RT script .

 OMG YOU DID IT!!!
 Sorry I did not check the forum for a while I was not expecting you to do it.
 Thank you soooooo much Ivek23 this will help me a lot choose the right movie to watch.
 

I wonder which part of the rating you are interested in:
first, second or both of the percentages, or anything else

I was interested by the first % which is the tomatometer.

 I managed to get the "average rating" in a custom field called "RT rating" in my movie page (please see attached image), but what I was after was having it displayed just like the allmovie and imdb ratings are displayed.
 Do you know if this is possible?

 Thank you thak you thank you again
 

[attachment deleted by admin]

[deazo]

 Actually, I think there is a maximum of 3 rating fields, right?
 
 If so then I would like to remove al the ratings I had added using the allmovie scripts, is this possible?
 This way the field would be blank and would get filled by the RT rating, right?

Welcome.

I wonder which part of the rating you are interested in:

I was interested by the first % which is the tomatometer.

This is what I put for rating in the script.

I managed to get the "average rating" in a custom field called "RT rating" in my movie page (please see attached image), but what I was after was having it displayed just like the allmovie and imdb ratings are displayed.
 Do you know if this is possible?

As far as I understood from the attached image, is used skin pvd_classic_movie. In pvd_classic_movie skin is RT raring custom field visible as is seen in the attached picture.
Of course this can be done, in skin can be added skin is RT raring custom field, but beware, therefore, all other custom fields will disappeared.

How this is done, you can see in my skins in the Scripts and Templates  or  My current skin for Ivek23  you can add more details about the skin in several pictures, as well as a detailed list of custom fields (I think you have 10 custom fields), and I'll do you skin by RT rating, such as you desire, if you can not you know how to edit the skin according to your taste.

 Actually, I think there is a maximum of 3 rating fields, right?
 
 If so then I would like to remove al the ratings I had added using the allmovie scripts, is this possible?

Yes, true, but I recommend that you do not do this (or do that), because you lose some information, which will not be possible to reimburse, but it is better to rearrange the skin, as has been mentioned before.
Option in the skin, however, is that can be blocked IMDb rating, as shown in the code below:

Code: [Select]

          </row>

          <!--
  <row>
   <column width="120" halign="right">
    <fieldlabel field="imdbrating" width="118" wordwrap="true" halign="right"/>
   </column>
   <column>
<imdbrating/>
   </column>
  </row>
          -->

          <row>However IMDb rating will no longer be visible.

[deazo]

   

This is what I put for rating in the script.

 
   Are you sure? The rating I am getting is the "average rating", not the "Tomatometer" (in %).

  Thank you for your skin, but I do not want to use it because I want all information to be visible in one page (home theatre), and not in tabs.

 I don't care about the allmovie/alrovi rating really. And I do not mind loosing it. Also I do not want to loose my other custom fields and I would like to keep the imdb rating.
 So my question is: How can I remove all Allmovie/alRovi ratings from my database?

 Thank you again, I have been wanting this plugin for almost 3 years!


 

[Ivek23]

This is what I put for rating in the script.

 
Are you sure? The rating I am getting is the "average rating", not the "Tomatometer" (in %).

However, it is a small problem, which I will explain later, because I need a little time for a little more detailed insight into the problem.

Thank you for your skin, but I do not want to use it because I want all information to be visible in one page (home theatre), and not in tabs.

Of course, to edit, to make everything visible on one side only. Put this under your skin (home theatre) attached to your post, I edited it so that everything will be on one side.

I don't care about the allmovie/alrovi rating really. And I do not mind loosing it. Also I do not want to loose my other custom fields and I would like to keep the imdb rating.
 So my question is: How can I remove all Allmovie/alRovi ratings from my database?

A simple way to solve this:
the RT script settings only confirm box for an additional rating, then the simply overwrite allmovie / alrovi rating (see image to Tools> Preferences> Plugins).

 Of course! I should have known, thank you.

 By the way, you do not need to spend more time on the Tomatometer, I am happy with the RT rating, this is really great thank you!!

 Hi Ivek23,

 I am updating hundreds of movies with the RT script, but for some reason, it does not find some of the movies and does not even suggest titles.
 I attach screenshots for example.
 I think (i am not sure) in the case of this Lars Von Trier movie, (and probably for many others) it is looking for the original title (Forbrydelsens element), where is should look for the AkA (the element of crime).
 So maybe the scrip has to be changed so that it also looks for the aka's?

 I also wonder if it is struggling with special characters (titles like "Fortapàsc" or "Frontière(s)".

 So I would say it works at 75% of cases.
 Thank you for the help

 D

I am updating hundreds of movies with the RT script, but for some reason, it does not find some of the movies and does not even suggest titles.

I've been able to find the error, repair it,

this part of code

Code: [Select]

curPos := PosFrom('<a href="/m/', HTML, curPos);
while (curPos > 0) AND (curPos < PosFrom('<a id="more_movies" href="#results_movies_tab">More Movies...</a>', HTML, endPos)) do begin
endPos := PosFrom('"  class=', HTML, curPos);replace this part of code

Code: [Select]

curPos := PosFrom('<a href="/m/', HTML, curPos);
while curPos > 0 do begin
endPos := PosFrom('"  class=', HTML, curPos);

not I have not added Rottentomatoes (1) script , because I tested the search results on about 300 movies.
There is a small cosmetic problem, namely to the first five results (one until five hits - depending on how many are on the All Search Results page) these results again repeat with all the other results in Movies Search Results page (see attached images).
I personally use this Rottentomatoes (1) script only if the basic Rottentomatoes script, if it does not display the correct search movie titles for your search movie or if it does not display all search movie titles for your search movie, including it is also correct title for your search movie.

Script will be added in the next post.

No, it is not necessary, is corrected, note is written above.

I also wonder if it is struggling with special characters (titles like "Fortapàsc" or "Frontière(s)".

The problem is solved in a simple way:

1. )
This is the url address
http://www.rottentomatoes.com/search/?search=Fronti%E8re&sitesearch=rt
for Web search in PVD (see attached picture).

Example:
This is the search url address for Frontière:
http://www.rottentomatoes.com/search/?search=Fronti%E8re&sitesearch=rt
For Web search in PVD:
Title: 
Rotten Tomatoes
URL:   
http://www.rottentomatoes.com/search/?search=Fronti%E8re&sitesearch=rt
Instead of this  " =Fronti%E8re&sitesearch=rt "  insert this "=%s&sitesearch=rt "

2. )
Do the first backup database so that you can do restore database to its original state.  Add an entry in databaso instead title "Frontière" this title "Frontiere" and RottenTomatoes script you will certainly find a movie title (see attached picture). So obtained url address for this movie,  copy to the url field "Frontière" movie, but first do is restore database before copying copied url.

Good luck in this work to you.

Rottentomatoes (1) script is attached.

 Hi Ivek23,

 I am really not sure I understand what you mean, so let me know if I understood:

 This is a summary of what I think you are telling me:
 I should basically search the movie on the Rottentomatoes website, then copy the URL and paste it in the URL field, before running the script.
 This is what you mean, right?

 This is actually the workaround I have been already using for movies that are not found by the script. My issue is that it takes a lot of time to do this one movie at a time, and I was hoping that there was a problem in the script that you could fix.

 But I think you have not changed the script, am I right?
 Please let me know and I will carry on using the URL's one by one.

 Thanks again

 
 

[Ivek23]

Thanks again

Welcome.

Yes, it is true. It is only in the event  Rottentomatoes script or  Rottentomatoes (1) script does not find results.

This is actually the workaround I have been already using for movies that are not found by the script. My issue is that it takes a lot of time to do this one movie at a time, and I was hoping that there was a problem in the script that you could fix.

I apologize for the long workflow. It is also a problem in the script, which I can not solve.

But I think you have not changed the script, am I right?
 Please let me know and I will carry on using the URL's one by one.

Rottentomatoes script was not nothing changed.

Rottentomatoes (1) script has been modified to better search results. The problem with search results it is in writing addresses instance in movies such as "Frontière". The problem I have tried to fix, but try to solve the problem were unfortunately unsuccessful. For that matter, have to do so as already mentioned

Please let me know and I will carry on using the URL's one by one.

unfortunately, and so sorry that I was unable to solve.

[deazo]

 Please do not apologize, you already did a lot for me, I have now hundreds of very useful RT ratings!

[Ivek23]

Welcome, nice to hear, thank you for the errors found. I'm glad that you are now satisfied user of this script.

BTW:

Repaired Imdb Movie Script and Imdb Movie(1) Script is attached here.

[Ivek23]

Preparing Imdb Movie Script and Imdb Movie(1) Script with additional information, which data are Imdb plugin is not transferred.

I wonder what additional information is added to the script, so you can write your suggestions here for additional information, which should be added to the script.

Then I'll see how and what I can do and which of the proposals the can be added to the script.

[Ivek23]

P.S.:
Please add Director of Photography for imdb-plugin!

Not yet, because PVD does not support this field. The only option is a custom field and Imdb plugin to add the option to download the data in the custom field.
Another option would be to IMDB script and data in a custom field. Easy IMDB script is here (Imdb Movie Script for rating ...).

Another option would be to IMDB script and data in a custom field. Easy IMDB script is here (Imdb Movie Script for rating ...).

This option has not yet been added to Imdb script. Can I do a little more thorough look at Imdb source code page and see what I can do. Then I can also tell you at what time then it would be also feasible.

It can also write in this thread:  Suggestion for Ivek23

I hope that by the middle of October will also be done.
