I use XMM10. Main script for downloading movie data is, of course, IMDB. For a long time it worked incorrectly, downloaded seversl persons as Directors instead of one Director. Now it cannot download movie data at all. No Country, no Year, no Director. And no any updates to script! No new versions of XMM, version 11 is a stub only, it doesn't work. What we paid for? I am ready to pay more, but I want to have a correctly functioning movie database. But it seems like development is abandoned.

Hi Mawu

Thanks for the list, but even there are not all the new genres like Superhero in Constantine (2005).
In my opinion these new subgenres are a little bit too much. Especially when on the same page there is existing a line with these subgenres and one line with the old genres only. Really an unsorted mix...
I think I will wait until there is a little more consistency too see.

Hello JDommi,

I think IMDB is a little bit inconsistent at the moment with the genres on th emain site of a movie mixing genre and subgenre.

Here are the lists:

Genres:
https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/titles/genres/GZDRMS6R742JRGAG#

Subgenres:
https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/titles/keywords/GXQ22G5Y72TH8MJ5?ref_=helpms_helpart_inline#subgenres

I just have seen that there are a lot of new genres on IMDB - Epic, Serial Killer, Superhero, etc. Additionally there are several combinations as Action Epic or Superhero Fantasy.
So my Question: Do we need new pics for those genres? For the combinations I would say no as they have an entry a itself and as both separated (complete nonsens in my eyes).
What do you think? And which styles are new? I didn't have found a list so far.

Excellent, I can confirm it now works, thanks.

The runtime issue should be fixed. The problem was that since the last script update the subside for technical information now need a references (/?ref_=...), too.

Hi, my IMDB script hasn't found the movie length for many months
If anyone has a working script, can you please post a link to the script.
Thank you.

Okay, I will try to have a look at it tomorrow
sauhan Posted - 18 Nov 2024 : 10:32:05
Hey, nice to see you back!

the imdb-scripts for TV series are still broken as far as I can see... last I was using was "15S_imdb.com (TV series) for Rel.8.txt"
JDommi Posted - 17 Nov 2024 : 19:12:04
@Kipcior:
Length (runtime): Go to page /technical/
Here you have both values (hours and minutes) and whole time in minutes.
<span class="ipc-metadata-list-item__list-content-item" aria-disabled="false">2 Std. 1 Min.<</span><span class="ipc-metadata-list-item__list-content-item--subText">(121 min)</span>
JDommi Posted - 16 Nov 2024 : 10:16:23
Sorry, but I had to take a pause from XMM for the last few monthes but I hope that I will now have time again to fix the scripts again.
Please let me know what still has to be corrected as I didn't use any of the scripts in the last time.
Kipcior Posted - 05 Oct 2024 : 15:56:30
I noticied that my script also stopped scrapping Genre, so if it's the same for you, you can take this part of script from my version, which I just tested and works. It works for Genre and Subgenres.


#GENRE#
    //Take only ONE genre, the others goes in the Subgenre
    //Read info from MAIN webpage
    #RESTOREMAIN#

One important thing not working for me is length and I can;t find easy rule to get this. Does it work for you?

Hi and thanks for this
My problem lies with movies not series and is concerned certain data (Year among others) as opposed to the movie list which works fine (except that it does not limit the title search to movies :-( )

But I had a look anyway

My entire IMDB.COM script has very few instances of #FIND#=div class= and none that go on "sc-"
Also it does not contain the string jKMtaG [so replacing it will be difficult ]

But it did make me look at the script more carefully and I discovered option 85 (Get the movie year was set to 0 - dont get year) and then I remembered that the device scanner used to take a number in the title that was inside () as being the year and it is no longer doing this.
Oh well at least I can fix my current issue
Sabry Posted - 07 Sep 2024 : 14:14:35
Thank you Kipcior, problem solved replacing the lines :)

Great job!
Kipcior Posted - 03 Sep 2024 : 20:14:53
Before JDommi comes back, let me share what fixed TV series list for me.
Under section @CREATEMOVIELIST in the TV series script for IMDB, find these three lines (they're not one after another but all in this section):

#FINDLINE#=<div class="sc-daafffbc-0 jKMtaG">#10# #ONERROR#=*STOP*

#FIND#=div class="sc-daafffbc-0 jKMtaG">#10# #ONERROR#=*STOP*

#FIND#=<div class="sc-daafffbc-0 jKMtaG">#11#


and in these three lines, replace this string:

jKMtaG

with this string:

bGPFAy

so in the end they will look like this:

#FINDLINE#=<div class="sc-daafffbc-0 bGPFAy">#10# #ONERROR#=*STOP*

#FIND#=div class="sc-daafffbc-0 bGPFAy">#10# #ONERROR#=*STOP*

#FIND#=<div class="sc-daafffbc-0 bGPFAy">#11#


Then save the file and should work again.

This solved the problem for me with showing TV series list, which was empty - they must have modified this part on the search results list page.

I have not checked anything else, so not sure what else has broken, but changing this allowed me to import full new series of The Boys including episodes.

Please you the latest script I have posted in the forum.


yes - sorry about that. I haven't updated for a while
So I found a script on page 12 of this thread at
https://www.mediafire.com/file/hl1qkaouqhc1qi4/_IMDB.COM_2023_%2528Complete%2529_5.txt/file.
I downloaded it, renamed it and overwrite the existing IMDB script. When I tried it
  • I got a list OK but it did not limit the search to movies (so the list was full of podcasts and the like)
  • Then, once I had selected the right item from the list, several movies did not import run length but most of the other fields seemed OK

I see recently there has been a load of discussion and parts of scripts posted but for idiots like me, is there a current complete IMDB script that works?

TFAI

XMM 9. IMDB Complete does not work any more. It cycles through the selected movie list but does nothing. It seems to search for example
http://akas.imdb.com/find?s=tt&q=The+Hunger+Games
and find nothing

if I paste this URL into the address bar I get
Site cannot be reached
Just checking, http://akas.imdb.com/ also produces site cannot be reached
