Download of IMDB rating is broken

The guys from imdb have changed the layout of their website again. This results in the inability of the imdb script to download the rating. Other fields seem not to be affected.

Now for me does not work anymore Imdb Rating and Imdb Votes.

EDIT:
I found a solution, perhaps the only current, but it works. I removed the imdbconf in folder
C: \ Program Files \ Personal Video Database \ Plugins
and re-edited for Imdb plugin settings in
Tools > Settings > Plugins > Imdb > Configure
and running again Imdb Rating and Imdb Votes.

Sadly, no help for me. I am wondering why this works for you? If you take a look at the actual source code of a movie page at imdb and compare it with the former code (use google cache for example), you will see that the code related to the rating has totally changed. I understand only a little bit how these scripts work. My understanding was that the script searches for keywords in the source code. If they changed the code, the script should not be capable to find the relevant information?

The question is how long this will work for me. If memory does not deceive me, then according to similar problems with ratings in the past, only a few days, then no longer work.
