IMPawards
« on: September 13, 2011, 06:09:20 pm »
Hello,

First--thanks for such a great program!

Lately I have been having problems with IMPaward poster imports.  No matter the title of the film "No movies found" is returned.

Any help will be much appreciated,

Welcome, eBike.

Yes, even if the search URL produces valid results (as can be seen by entering it manually in a browser), it fails to process the results. The site uses a Google "custom search" to do the search—I wonder if the format of the results page has changed. Is this happening all the time, or does it sometimes work?

Hello,

Sorry about the delay in replying--my ISP has been blocking your site for some reason.

Yes, the "No movies found" message is happening all the time now.  Even for movies that have produced valid results before.

Thanks,

For me too. The search URL (per the log) is correct, but results are not being processed. Something must have changed that will require the plugin be updated.

hello,

IMPawards not working: always "movies not found"
also, if you launch a websearch for the poster on
http://www.movieposterdb.com/ no results given
(only opens the page, search is blank).

Web Searches are user-maintained. Many of the sites have changed since the sample searches included in the program were created. MoviePosterDb is now...

This Web Search seems to work for IMPAwards...

Is this something that we may see in the "near" future?

If anyone can see the future, near or far, it would be the guy who calls himself Nostradamus. But he might be too busy to share his prophecies with us. ;)
