[SOLVED] Missing movie duration from IMDB

--- Quote from: rick.ca on October 17, 2010, 03:35:31 am ---There's also no Release date for http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0317248/, but that appears to be because the main page uses the first date in the list, which happens to be "2002 (Russia)" in this case. I have no idea how often that sort of thing will happen, or whether the fix (downloading the Release Dates page and getting the first complete date) is worth the trouble.

Just to clarify... It seems you decided this is not worth the trouble. So if the main page Release date is expressed as just a year or a month and a year, it will not be retrieved. Out of 872 movies on my "wish list" only 64 are affected by this. Unfortunately, I not sure of the impact on other movies, because I've been fixing them as I go. The example I gave is a bit worrisome. The problem doesn't arise because the movie is obscure. On the contrary, it's very popular and there's a long list of release dates. Unfortunately, an imprecise release date in the first year ends up at the top of the list, and that's the one used on the main page. ::)

Yes, but maybe I will take some implementing a fix for this release date issue later. I really want to get the development of new PVD going...

I don't think it's a high priority, but when you do... Consider the option to choose the first release date for a specified country (or priority list of countries). The default should otherwise be the earliest complete date (and, if necessary, convert it to a full date).
