Thanks Prinz for the update.
May be realistic to grab locations and soundtraks from the site ? |

The main Problem with adding something new is that we already used all Custom-Fields with the exception of Custom4, but that is a Drop-down Field so uses are limited.
To add new data we need new Custom Fields... Maybe that could be an something for the Suggestions / New Features Subforum http://www.binaryworks.it/forum/forum.asp?FORUM_ID=3
What could be interesting?
- locations
- soundtrack
- memorable quotes
- Parents Guide
- Technical specifications
- literature listings
That already would be 6 new Database Fields... |

IMDB have a lot of information.
My 2 cent is for:
Locations >>> there is also special tourism about it)
Soundtracks >>> do you remember the song of Kate & Leopold film credits......Hum!..... Oh yes Sting, but don't remember the title !!
Photos >>> there are a lots of no possible to take it in gallery ?

I just don't see any reason to take most of the Photos from the gallery. Most of them are simply Photos of Actors at the premiere and such events, which has not much to do with the movie itself. I personally think these Photo are mainly a waste of HDD Space and Download-Time. |

@Prinz
Nice that you think about integrating more options to IMDB scripts.
Highly recommended for me:
- memorable quotes
- plot keywords
- soundtrack listing !!!!
- movie connections (maybe with hyperlinking on the moviecards)
Also useful:
- filming locations
- crazy credits
- alternative versions
- technical specs
- literature listings

No. I don't even have a DVB-PC-Card.  |

I would also like to ask for one additional field to be added. In the IMDB database I've noticed a lot of the new movies contain both the traditional 40 to 50 word 'Plot' description of a film as well as a far more detailed 200-300 word 'Plot Synopsis'. I prefer the shorter 'Plot' for the HTML card and the NMT data. However, the detailed 'Plot Synopsis' is worth keeping but there is no where to put it.
Of the several dozen times that I've encountered the longer description of the film, it has ALWAYS been in the 'Plot' record and starts under the text of 'Plot Synopsis'. That should help in automating its collection and placement within a new field or Custom Field.
Does this make sense???
Thanks,
Norm
I've been using the Media 'Notes' area since that is typically empty.

I don't have a Problem with that, since i did add it this way on purpose.  The Data Synopsis is from separate a sub-website /synopsis on imbd.com, the Plot Synopsis Title Line is added by the script to separate the two. At the moment i think this is the best way to do it.
And the new Movie-Card collapses to long Text Fields like the Plot Field, so i don't see the Problem. Maybe with the new fields it could be added in a separate field, if there are enough of them. |

| Just noticed that after updating to 7.0.7.7 with new IMDB.COM (Complete) script, no information has been updated at all while the IMDB.COM (Fastest) works. |

| Prinz, could you please fix/change the way "Original Language" is imported? For example: http://akas.imdb.com/title/tt0120179/ (Speed 2) imports as "English American Sign Language Portuguese" instead of "English | American Sign Language | Portuguese". Also, I believe the field name should be "Language" and not "Original Language"?? |
