IMDb plugin maintenance issues
rick.ca:
OIC. Yes, it must be getting it from the "infobar" at the top, rather than the "Storyline" section below.
rick.ca:
The plugin seems to be about due for maintenance, so I'll ask again...

...I'm attempting to consolidate outstanding issues in this thread.

Need Help to try and fix why this is happening.
First what happened. My drive crashed. I got a new one but didn't make a recent backup.
I ghost my image back onto my new drive. I run PVD. I added some 60 more movies to my database since this ghost image and the crash.
I try to update the database and scan some more movies.
I do a scan of a directory of 30 movies. of them 2 were already in the database,
but I replaced them with better ones. 17 of them come out with this:
http://www.imdb.com/media/rm... for a URL and no data, Just the Name, Original Title, Year and URL.
Instead of:
http://www.imdb.com/title/... for a URL and all data is found and present.
For 3 of the movies no data or imdb link could be found for the movie filename.
And the 8 movies that do display http://www.imdb.com/title/... for a URL also show
the data but there are No Cover Images or Posters found for any of the new movies.
What to do?

If Download image is set in the configuration, the plugin sets [URL] to the poster URL, and then is unable to get the poster or the movie information. When the option is not selected, the plugin will get the movie information normally.

Turn-off Download image and wait for nostra to update the plugin.

So I fixed part of this. I renamed the plugin directory to Plugins_old. I ran PVD then selected to Check for updates. I selected to download some of the IMDB plugins.
- amazon.dll
- imdb.dll
- imdb_people.dll
- tmdb.dll
In preferences for plugin configuration I selected silent mode. All information now is gathered for the movies except for the cover image even if I selected also to Download all available images.
When I select to configure the IMDB plugin to download images, this is when I seem to get this http://www.imdb.com/media/rm... and no data for the movies.
