« on: December 20, 2023, 08:55:46 am »... PVD is revived once again due to Ivek's magical takes on AllMovie and IMDb scripts?
I am following other catalogues and I can tell you that neither is updated as PVD. In general they all dies...
Thank you very much. However, I try to do my best to keep the updates up to date, considering that both myself and my mother have health problems, and as a result, there is less time for updating scripts, or it takes longer to edit the update and then I make tests regarding the correct functioning of this updated script.
At the same time, all the best to all PVD users in the new year 2024.

Does anyone know which custom field states by which script the record is last updated? I absolutely forgot. Was it IUpdated?
Thanks.
With the IUpdated custom long text field, you will see exactly when and with which script the most recent record update was made.

Imdb.com[EN][HTTPS]_Search script attached.
Executing the script causes the error on my side
Here I need the title and url link of the movie so I can check what's wrong.
Hello Ivek. It's the same with any existing entry that doesn't have imdb url (logically, yet to be searched for the title to get it's url).
For example, https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0072962/
It's the same for_adv.psf script
With the menu F for Fake movie title both search scripts find this title without problems even with proxy settings on.
I'm guessing that the problem must be on your side, but I don't know what exactly it is.

Here is the new IMDB_[EN][HTTPS]_TEST_2b script which currently transmits only partially or fully the information for a specific movie.
Partial download Also Known As info, full download info is for PlotKeywords, PlotSummary and Technical specifications. For the time being, the information for the Cast&Crew, ParentsGuide and Reference View websites is still in progress. The search for results does not work anymore (more information about this can be found here). Function ParsePage_BingSearch (changes in the source code of the Bing page) and also Function ParsePage_IMDBMovieAWARDS have been removed from the script, but now that the source code of the Awards website has been changed, it is impossible to edit or correct the code, and in addition, there is a limitation for a certain Event (on example: Academy Awards, USA) it is possible to see only five award categories for one event.
You now have a special script available to search for results and you can find them added below.

The Imdb.com[EN][HTTPS]_Search_adv script is made in the same way as the Imdb.com[EN][HTTPS]_Search script but with the difference that the Advanced search list of search results is displayed.
You can use it if the Imdb.com[EN][HTTPS]_Search script may not show you results or may not add the correct url in case there are multiple movie titles of the same title.
The Imdb.com[EN][HTTPS]_Search_adv script also displays more hits in the list of search results.
The exact year of release of the movies is also correctly transferred here. Works in all PVD versions.

Scripts and Templates / Re: Use BING as default search result

I always wondered why it has to be Bing, actually, but assumed it was some "axiom".
I think it was used because it was perhaps the best choice after google
Bing_Search Scripts were created because titles and url links for movies were searched through them, if with the basic scripts (Imdb, AllMovie, RottenTomatoes, Amazon and some other script) it was not possible to find a specific movie title when for search results, or the search results for did not work, as is the case now with the IMDB_[EN][HTTPS] script, where it is now not possible to edit or correct the code for search results for a specific movie.

Yes, maybe this will help you. If any field was left blank as in this example, it will not be visible.
Thanks, but I wasn't clear. My goal is something else.
As you know(?), at the moment IMDb script doesn't import IMDb reviews/user comments.
Instead, the script fills in the field with:Code: [Select]fbml"><head><meta charSet="utf-8"/><meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width"/><script>if(typeof uet === 'function'){ uet('bb', 'LoadTitle', {wb: 1}); }</script><script>window.addEventListen
I want to avoid this and to be able to set importing for this/custom field to be "Do nothing" or "Set if empty", like for the default fields in the screenshot.
Is that possible?
Code: [Select]
//Get ~User Reviews~
curPos:=Pos('<h3 class="ipc-title__text">User reviews',HTML); //WEB_SPECIFIC.
If 0<curPos then begin
curPos:=PosFrom('</button><div class="ipc-overflowText--children"><div class="ipc-html-content ipc-html-content--base" role="presentation"><div class="ipc-html-content-inner-div">',HTML,curPos)+Length('</button><div class="ipc-overflowText--children"><div class="ipc-html-content ipc-html-content--base" role="presentation"><div class="ipc-html-content-inner-div">'); //Strings which opens/closes the data. WEB_SPECIFIC;
EndPos:=PosFrom('</div></div></div><div class="ipc-list-card__actions"><div data-testid="review-actions" class="',HTML,curPos); //Strings which opens/closes the data. WEB_SPECIFIC
ItemValue:=Copy(HTML,curPos,endPos-curPos); //Strings which opens/closes the data. WEB_SPECIFIC
ItemValue:=StringReplace(ItemValue,':)','',True,False,True);
ItemValue:=StringReplace(ItemValue,'=)','',True,False,True);
curPos:=Pos('<!DOCTYPE html>',ItemValue);
If 0<curPos then ItemValue:=Copy(ItemValue,0,curPos-1);
curPos:=Pos('er('+#39+'load'+#39,ItemValue);
If 0<curPos then ItemValue:=Copy(ItemValue,0,curPos-1);
curPos:=Pos('Find showtimes, ',ItemValue);
If 0<curPos then ItemValue:=Copy(ItemValue,0,curPos-1);
ItemValue:=StringReplace(ItemValue,'</div>','',True,False,True);
ItemValue:=StringReplace(ItemValue,'<ul><li>','',True,False,True);
ItemValue:=StringReplace(ItemValue,'</li></ul>','',True,False,True);
AddCustomFieldValueByName('User Reviews',ItemValue);
AddCustomFieldValueByName('User Comments',ItemValue);
if ItemValue <> '' then LogMessage(' Get result User Reviews (CF~User Reviews~): <br>'+ItemValue+'||');
End;Here is the code for IMDb reviews/user comments. Replace this code in the script, it should fix the problem.Is that possible?Not possible.

Yes, I already know and I'm working on getting the results display working again. But in the IMDB_[EN][HTTPS] script I can't find a solution for finding the results so far. I'm testing the IMDB_[EN][HTTPS] script, which is only for searching results, but there are still errors that I need to fix. I'm also testing the Imdb Movie Info(title) script, which works with the help of Proxomitron. I am also looking for a solution for Imdb.com[EN][HTTPS]_ b+ script which would work in all PVD versions of the program.

Yes, this is a well-known issue and a problem with scripts (which cannot be fixed) that are made for PVD MOD versions of the programs. Here it takes longer because the curl program downloads each web page individually in its entirety (for example, first the search results, then the basic pages of a particular movie, then the pages with actors and so on). The more pages there are, the longer it takes to download all the information. For the AllMovie websites, it might be possible to make a special script for the Actors or Review pages, in which case the information transfer would be a little faster.
76
In the IMDB_[EN][HTTPS] script, the IMDB search results no longer work due to a change in the source code on these pages.
I managed to find a solution for IMDB search results. I am testing the scripts now to correct any errors, then they will be available on the forum in a few days.

Scripts and Templates / Re: Use BING as default search result
« on: December 01, 2023, 11:25:34 am »Notice:
Due to changes in the Microsoft Bing source code, all Bing_Search scripts have now become unusable. Because data access is now disabled in the source code for search results, Bing_Search scripts can no longer find search results for a specific movie title. Previously, Bing_Search scripts were able to find search results for a specific movie title, so the results were also visible.
In scripts where Bing_Search code has been added, this part of the code no longer works and there are no more visible results to search results for a particular movie title. This is especially true for all IMDB_ [EN] [HTTPS] scripts.
And a warm notice.
The same is true in Google source code for finding results for a particular movie title.
This matter has now gone so far that it is not even possible to download anything anymore. Now the source code has been edited in such a way that any kind of information transfer has been prevented. As a result, writing to download information from Bing web pages for Bing_Search scripts is also disabled.
