Post by: conmac7 on October 18, 2009, 03:04:00 pm
I have problem with the AllCDCovers

I have decided to not support AllCDCovers plugin any more as it was not really useful, sorry

Ok. thank you.
But it would be very useful a plug in for cover downloads.
Now i spend much time to manually download covers for all of the 2000+ movies that i have in my database.

In what way do you imagine a plugin being more useful or more "automatic" than using a Web search?

something like imdb plug in.
Searching by the name of the movie, then appearing a table with all movies with the specific name and finally selecting the movie that you want. At the end, autofilling the fields.
 :-\

Maybe is impossible to make something like this for covers. I dont know. Im Just suggesting...

Unfortunately allcdcovers.com and cdcovers.cc are using special protection systems preventing cover downloads from outside. If you know a good resource for covers without download protection, then let me know and I'll write a plugin/script for it.

...and besides, there are normally multiple covers to choose from. The best way to do that is via the web page they provide.
