Title: How can I update my database with IMDB votes and ratings
Post by: leogets on December 15, 2019, 05:48:07 pm
Hello,

For a while now I've been using pvd v1.0.2.7 and for movie information I'm using TheMovieDB [En] to get all the information and image for the database.  For each movie I put into the database I have to keep going to IMDB.com to get the current ratings and votes for each movie. 

I have quite a few entries in the database and would hate to mess things up.
Is there a separate pluggin I can use to just IMPORT the current imdb ratings and votes for each of the movies I select in my database?

Thanks for any help

You may be using a Proxomitron program. If so, I'll prepare a simpl Imdb script, which it will be
downloaded only data for rating and votes on Imdb.com websites. It will be for a day or two, depending on the time I will have.

Here are theImdb Movie Info-2a script that works with the help of the Proxomitron program and the IMDB_[EN][HTTPS]-a script that works with PVD MOD. They both download the rating and votes information you were looking for, as well as the Metascore rating.

The following custom fields are used:

IMDB Rating, IMDBRating and Metascore for rating
IMDB_Votes and IMDB Votes for votes
IUpdated and Updated for script update info
TOP_250, TOP 250:, Bottom 100, IMDb Movie Url, IMDbID

Imdb Movie Info-2a script and IMDB_ [EN] [HTTPS] script is attached.
