As I'm at the moment fixing a few scripts there is a general question I wanna ask.
Blueray.com and DVDEmpire.com do not really offer much info on the movies. So my question is which info is worth to grab?
There are in general 3 kinds of what to import:
1. Cover/BackCover/FanArt
2. Media Info like Release, UPC, Packaging, etc.
3. All available Info
What's your opinion?
I personally would say No. 1 and optionally No. 2. All other info should really being imported by a more informational website like IMDB.
But if everyone is only interested in the covers so why should I do more than needed? 
Of course that question is ment for all scripts! |

| I wouldn't care about either one of them if there were another (English) script to grab front and back covers. I like THEMOVIEDB for fan art..etc... I say BluRay.com....it is more reliable, unless you need DVD covers, which I do not. |

Hello Guys,
I think that IMDB and THEMOVIEDB are enough, because they have all information possible for every movie.
The good thing about THEMOVIEDB is the trailer, that can be embedded in the MovieCard... so my personal idea is to not lose too much time on websites like Pluray or DVDempire because there is really too few informations in that websites compared to IMDB.

| If there are no more comments I will change the DVDEmpire script into a "Cover only" one at the weekend... |

| DVDEmpire as cover only would be perfect, because like previously posted, I use THEMOVIEDB and IMDB for everything else. It was just a pain to have to scan every case for covers. (yes, I'm lazy..LOL) |

Estoy haciendo unas modificaciones y en el debugger todo sale correcto pero en el XMM falla, estoy intentando bajar el poster principal en ingles y despues si existe en español, pero al usar el XMM, no baja ninguna, ni el fanart y se quedan las review en blanco.
Se puede bajar más de un poster a la vez?
El trailer no se embebe, pero si pinchas en trailer se abre el navegador.
dejo el link pos si le echais un vistazo.
google trasñation.
I am making some modifications and the debugger everything goes right but in the XMM fails, I'm trying to get off the main poster in English and then if there is in Spanish, but when using the XMM not lower any, or the fanart and stay the review in white.
You can download more than one poster at a time?
The trailer is not embedded but if you click on the browser opens trailer.
Here is the link if you echais after a glance.

Error found...
Seems as if XMM has problems with the line:
#FINDLINE#=España#03##ONERROR#=*STOP*
Try instead:
#FINDLINE#=Espa#03##ONERROR#=*STOP* //(Maybe you can use "España")
Working code block:
#FINDLINE#=<div class="colorbox-image">#03##ONERROR#=*STOP*
#FINDLINE#=Espa#03##ONERROR#=*STOP*
#RESETCURSOR#
#FIND#=href="#01##ONERROR#=*OK*
#FIND#="#01##ONERROR#=*OK*
#COMPUTECURSOR#=+3
#FIND#=" title#02##ONERROR#=*OK*
#TAKEWORD#=#07#,#01#,#02#
#TAKEPOSTER#=#07#
The empty review is depending on that.
#ONERROR#=*STOP* immediately breaks the whole block. So the #RESTOREMAIN# command will be never executed.
Move the #RESTOREMAIN# at the beginning of the next block or don't use the *STOP* while in a #LOADWEBSLOT# routine! |

Ok funciona, gracias.
Es cierto que XMM tiene problemas con la ñ y los á, é, í, ó, y ú esto se puede solucianar con #STARTSUBSTITUTETAG# ???
Aun queda por pulir varias cosas, ahora intentaré poner la caratula en español primero, ver que en los trailers hay algún error, imagino que es por los links a otras web y tengo que encontrar la fórmula.

It remains to polish several things, now I try to put the cover in Spanish first, see that there is an error trailers, guess that is the links to other websites and I have to find the formula.

Yes, #STARTSUBSTITUTETAG# replaces those special chars.
As mentioned above the original ScriptEngine shows that line as España
Maybe you can use such a substitution and do a #FINDLINEVAR# instead of the normal #FINDLINE#.
On the trailers I didn't had a look... but I think you will solve that, too 
In the case of "Matrix" there only exist 2 english and 1 spanish trailer I just have seen... |

Por ahora estoy probando con diferentes titulos y funcionan los cambios, estoy de pruebas porque el problema de filmaffinity que el código no es igual, varia imagino como todas las web
He hecho un cyclotrailer y ahora coge todos los trailer, después ire a ver si los puedo separar por idiomas y que sea una option.
También estoy peleando con las review, me gusta que en el campo salga un resumen, pero me gustaría poder ir a ver la review completa.
Se puede hacer que una direccion web actue como link dentro de un campo memo?

For now I'm testing with different titles and the changes work, I am testing because the problem of filmaffinity that the code is not the same, varies guess like all web
I made a cyclotrailer and now takes all the trailer, then go see if I can be separated by language and make it an option.
I am also fighting with the review, I like that in the field out a summary, but I would like to go to see the full review.
It can make a web address act as link within a memo field?

if you need help let me know...
if the <a href> is in that memo field it will automatically shown as link. For that you have to remove #CLEARTAGS# inside the script block. |

Ah vaya, no sabia que <a href> indica un hyperlink. Quitando mis intentos de programar algo en DOS con Sinclair ZX Spectrum no he programado nada en mi vida, bueno algún archivo bat....
Entonces, el CLEARTAGS actua siempre a partir de que lo has puesto?
Esto no sería valido?

Aun que creo que el campo memo de la base de datos no tiene activados los controles IME, y no sé si activando los controles voy a estropear la base de datos.
Eso lo tendrá que decir Ale.
Google traslation
Although I think the memo field of the database has not activated the IME controls, and do not know if activating the controls I will not spoil the database.
I have to say that Ale. |

Try it with this:
#STRING#=#31#=#31# <a href=#35#>completa</a>#NEWLINE#
The thing with the IME controls I don't have understand... |

| Okay, I haven't read it correctly. The Memofield in the Edit-Window does not have the ability for hyperlinks. Only on the HTMLCard that link is working! |

HTMLcard does not work, or memofield.
I mean that the field type in MS-access is just like any other field that contains links and if it works, as the official web link |
