Title: IMBD plugin not retrieving poster from site.
Post by: Ungrimmer on January 30, 2010, 05:50:14 pm

Hello PVD-users,

This problem started a week ago. The IMBD-plugin isn't getting any pictures/posters from imbd. I tested it with "the princess and the frog". And there are certainly pictures for that movie. All the other information gets trough just fine.

Maybe a little change on IBDM.com? anyone else got this same problem?

Greetings

Ungrimmer

Welcome, Ungrimmer.

It works for me. Is your plugin configuration set to overwrite Poster, and "Download images"?

If so, run the program with the -debug switch, and check the log (opened from the Help menu) to see what's happening.

BTW, posters from IMDb are not of good quality, and are intended only to serve as a temporary measure until a better one is downloaded using a poster plugin (e.g., Amazon, IMPAwards).
