Personal Video Database 1.0.2.7 MOD
Ivek23:
There is also TheMovieDB_[API] script which works in a similar way to the tmdb.dll plugin. This script displays a list of search results for a specific movie (same as the tmdb.dll plugin). Downloading the results is the same as with the other TheMovieDB_[API] script, except that the posters are from the no language group, where there are neutral posters without any language.
The custom fields are the same as the rest of TheMovieDB_[API] script except for the two new ones mentioned below.
The new custom fields are as follows:
TMDb_APIPage 1 (Custom memo field) - added link to specific TheMoviedbAPIPage web page for specific movie.
Posters 0 (Custom memo field) - added links to all posters for specific movie.
Posters Numbers 1 (Custom Short list field) - added to Posters Numbers for specific movie in all language.
Changes:
The change is also in the size of the downloaded posters in all TheMovieDB_[API] scripts, that instead of the original, it is now this size due to the acquisition of space in the PVD database, which in turn means easier operation of the PVD MOD program.
--- Code: ---//ItemValue:=BASE_URL_IMAGE+ItemValue;
ItemValue:='http://image.tmdb.org/t/p/w342' +ItemValue; //WEB_SPECIFIC. w45,w92,w185,w300,w342,original.
--- End code ---
TheMovieDB_[API] script is attached.

and IMDB_[EN][HTTPS]_TEST_2a script is attached.
Changes:
Added url link to website for Cinematography and Thanks in Function ParsePage_IMDBMovieCREDIT
A new Function ParsePage_IMDBMovieREFERENCE has been added, because otherwise some items from the basic movies web pages (tagline, tags, "Storyline" as description, "Plot Summary" as description, Bottom Rated Movies) cannot be downloaded any other way than with this function.
The ParsePage_BingSearch function is now blocked and no longer works. It will remain so in the future as it will be replaced by Imdb_[HTTPS]_Bing_Search in case there are no search results. An alternative will also be two IMDB_[EN][HTTPS]_Search scripts, if by chance there are no search results with the IMDB_[EN][HTTPS] script.
This is a new url link:
--- Quote ---//65001 utf-8 Unicode (UTF-8) ---> https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/intl/code-page-identifiers
--- End quote ---
This is a limitation for searching results, where the search shows multiple results for one movie title. this now allows only 10 hits to be displayed and therefore shows it here earlier.
--- Quote --- BASE_URL_SEARCH_PROV ='https://www.imdb.com/search/title?title=%s&title_type=feature&release_date=%y,%y&view=simple&count=10'; //Search string for '%s' title and '%y' year. WEB_SPECIFIC //'&count=50'
--- End quote ---
This is a limitation of the number due to less space consumption in the PVD database.
--- Quote ---// PLOTKEYWORDS_LIMIT = 100; //Limit of number of tags retrieved only when download Plot Keywords provider page.[
PLOTKEYWORDS_LIMIT = 50; //Limit of number of tags retrieved only when download Plot Keywords provider page.
--- End quote ---
Made a change to the CHANGE LOG description. This is now located at the bottom of the script.
Ivek23:
Here are IMDB_[EN][HTTPS]_Search script, which searches for movie results for feature, tv movie, video, and IMDB_[EN][HTTPS]_Search a script, which, in addition to the above, also finds results for series. Scripts download some basic information for movies or series.
There is also an Imdb_[HTTPS]_Bing_Search script to find results using Bing search and display up to 50 hits. If there is already a url link, the script will search again and display the search list for this movies or series. The Imdb_[HTTPS]_Bing_Search script only works in PVD MOD versions with the help of the curl program, otherwise it is currently not possible to edit the script and to download the search results with Bing Search.
Scripts is attached.
Ivek23:
The IMDB_[EN][HTTPS] script no longer downloads certain information for movies because there have been major changes in the source code of certain web pages. The script only downloads information from the basic Movies page. It currently also downloads information from the Full Cast & Crew, Awards and Plot Keywords web pages. Here, too, there will be changes in the source code sometime by the end of February. Currently, it still downloads movies information from the Reference View website for movies, but it's only a matter of time how long this will be, because the Reference View website is supposed to be discontinued in the near future, unfortunately for us of course.
There will be many problems for corrections in the IMDB_[EN][HTTPS] script, it is also possible that certain web pages and the transfer of information will no longer be possible in the future.
Ivek23:
Here is the current IMDB_[EN][HTTPS]_TEST_1b script that is currently working. However, there is a possibility that tomorrow or the day after tomorrow some things may not be transferred by the script, because parts of the code in the source code of the IMDb websites change very often.
However, there have been major changes in the source code of the IMDb websites, and in some places it is possible to download only 6 items for a certain area. Such an example is primarily Also Known As (AKA).
Below are links to specific IMDb web pages with such examples.
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0147800/releaseinfo/
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0147800/companycredits/
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0147800/movieconnections/
Most such IMDb websites will no longer be included in IMDB_[EN][HTTPS] script updates in the future. Individual specific IMDB_[EN][HTTPS] scripts will also no longer be updated. For example, the IMDB_[EN][HTTPS]_(Connections) script will not be updated in the future. Another similar IMDb script may meet the same fate.
There are some new features in the IMDB_[EN][HTTPS]_TEST_1b script.
Function ParsePage_IMDBMovieAKA transfers only 6 records. If you don't want this, then you can change it manually in the Retreive Data Config area.
--- Code: --- GET_FULL_AKA = True ; //Download 'Also Known As' provider page for retreive the info. Otherwise only the info of the principal movie page.
//GET_FULL_AKA = False ; //Download 'Also Known As' provider page for retreive the info. Otherwise only the info of the principal movie page.
--- End code ---
Function ParsePage_IMDBMoviePLOTSUMMARY is now primarily blocked and does not transfer any information because many times the Synopsis field is empty. If you don't want this, then you can change it manually in the Retreive Data Config area. You also have the option to have the GET_FULL_PLOT_SYNOPSIS function transfer or not transfer the Synopsis info and Custom IMDB Synopsis memo box. There is also a Custom Plot Summary memo box.
--- Code: ---// GET_FULL_PLOTSUMMARY = True ; //Download Plot provider page for retreive the Summaries info. Otherwise only the info of the principal movie page
GET_FULL_PLOTSUMMARY = False ; //Download Plot provider page for retreive the Summaries info. Otherwise only the info of the principal movie page
GET_FULL_PLOT_SYNOPSIS = True ; //Set to True if to wanted to Download full synopsis for Plot provider page for retreive the Synopsis info in Custom IMDB Synopsis box.
// GET_FULL_PLOT_SYNOPSIS = False ; //Set to True if to wanted to Download full synopsis for Plot provider page for retreive the Synopsis info in Custom IMDB Synopsis box.
GET_FULL_PLOT = True ; //Set to True if to wanted to Download full synopsis for Plot provider page for retreive the Plot info in Custom Plot Summary box.
// GET_FULL_PLOT = False ; //Set to True if to wanted to Download full synopsis for Plot provider page for retreive the Plot info in Custom Plot Summary box.
--- End code ---
IMDB_[EN][HTTPS]_TEST_1b script is attached.
