In the context of your original question, it's days faster. ::)

Perhaps not, but HTTP error 503 occurs regularly. They probably just mean the server is busy, but it could also mean the server is telling you it's busy because it's getting too many requests from you.

 Thanks for clarification Rick, I thought Silent Mode was taking the first movie found (!), that's why I was never using it.
 In terms of speed, I think the script is very fast or at least fast enough.
 Unless you're on 56K of course  ;D

I'd say its worth trying - if it isnt alot of work to get it working.
Again, i wouldnt mind testing it.

Fast enough? Yesterday i added 700 movies. After 1½ hour, it had completed 270 movies.
Others seems to think so too: http://personal-video-database-portable.en.softonic.com/ (Cons: Database internet retrieval can be slow)
One more: http://www.softsea.com/review/IMDB-Movie-Explorer.html (quote: It is dog slow, but does the job)

Its working - which is the primary goal - but i'd just like to see it a bit faster. If that isnt possible, that's ok too :)

buah:
I imported 5500 entries from IMDB in a day

What is your secret?! ;) I started PVD about 2½ hours ago, and it has now passed 500 entries - in silent mode.
