I agree. This is a great piece of software with plenty of flexibility.

« on: February 06, 2013, 05:06:18 pm »Found it! It's to do with images. If you turn download images off in the IMDB2 plugin it'll work like sunshine for all episodes, individually or by season. If you turn it on there most be an image for each and every episode or the whole show is no go. I stumbled on it importing this http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118421/combined, where the first 5 seasons all have episode images but not the last 6th episode. In my most humble opinion I think there's a minor error in the plugin, but negligible to me as I don't want images for each individual episode anyway.
I praise the person who put this all together, it makes collecting films fun again for a film fanatic.

BTW, Thx for your support so far.

I just checked and that matches the version and plug-in that I am running. I'm downloading episode info right now too.
Maybe delete the plug-in and reinstall it?
----------------------------
It has been a long time since I've fiddled with PVD settings. I see there is an option to disable the need for user intervention. I think I'll leave it alone so I can still manually control any errant episodes.

I'm using 9.8.11.
I discovered that I can fetch the info for all the episodes in a single season by highlighting the titles and hitting "import". This makes things quite a bit easier but user interaction is still required for titles that aren't an exact match with IMDB.

Cool! I've been using PVD for a couple of years now and I never realized extra information could be downloaded for individual episodes. I just tried it and it works fine! Now I have plenty of work ahead of me to update episodes on everything I have. Sheeesh. Is there a way to automate the process
Doesn't work for me anymore, are you using plugin imdb.dll v.0.9.8.9 or some other script to get the extra info?

« on: February 03, 2013, 12:06:07 am »Why do you have these wrong URLs at all??? They link to a page with a totally different design...
Yeah, that was it. I was attempting to update the database file that already had the old /reference url. Once I deleted the file and imported it anew it worked like a charm.
Thanks.

« on: February 02, 2013, 01:01:35 pm »It used to be required at some point, but if the new design is fine, I'll just change my IMDb settings to that so I don't get those URLs.

« on: February 02, 2013, 10:39:10 am »With IMDB 9.8.10, I only get the HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found error if I paste in the URL with the "/reference" on the end. It would be good to be able to paste this in without having to delete that part:
ex. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0098668/reference
though it would be fine if PVD removed it.

No joy for me. I still get a HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found error with IMDB 9.8.10 & version 1.0.2.3 beta
Anyway I could try 9.8.9

« on: February 01, 2013, 08:35:09 pm »Hello Nostra.
I am afraid it does not download complete information (as per v.0.9.8.8.) for films already in the database (by clicking the button on the menu).
Should I delete those and re-enter them in the database? Just asking before messing up things.
Thanks,
Update: Found the cause. In the field of URL, some characters where added with the old version, which in turn led to HTTP Error again. Once deleted the characters, it works perfectly.
