MovieMeter.nl (Dutch Movies) Scraper development...
No answer?

Sorry I didn't get an update on the thread until your last message.

I need to take a look at the moviemeter API with this movie to see how i can get it from there. Because I need to retrieve it from them and that doesn't seem to work.

This movie isn't found because i'm at the limit of the moviemeter api (5000 calls a day).

But it did find other movies at the same time

That is possible. Because i'm not always using the moviemeter api.

It works as follows:
You go to my website with the movie title and year.
This will check if the movie exists in my own database.
If it does exist it will return that movie to XBMC.
But if it doesn't exist it will go through the moviemeter api.
When the movie is found with the moviemeter api I store it in my own database so the next time the same movie is searched for it will directly find it.
Then the found movie is send back to XBMC.

So when the movie exists in my database nothing can go wrong.
But if it doesn't exist he will go to the api which has a limitation of 5000 calls per day.
And because a lot of crap is scraped, which doesn't exist, this limit can sometimes be hit on a day.

The underworld collection is not found by moviemeter.

I've got

Underworld (2003)
Underworld (2006)
Underworld (2009)
Underworld (2012)

Only 2006 and 2009 version can be found.

This is strange because i can find all 4 of them. Only the 2009 variant gives me 2 results.

When you use the following names it should work:
Underworld (2003)
Underworld Evolution (2006)
Underworld Rise of the Lycans (2009)
Underworld Awakening (2012)

It is always better to use the original title instead of a part of the title.

I cant seem to add Brüno

I tried with and without the trema.
Would it be possible to allow searching by either imdb number or the moviemeter number?[/align]

Had a complete rebuild last vacation and re installed my old xbox1 with the latest XBMC4XBOX, wanted to rescrape my NAS with moviemeter. This worked great on title plot fan art etc.. except on thumbnails. No movie posters are available?
Is there something wrong with the script? I am using the moviemeter.xml from 2010-02-24. Other scrapers due show thumbs.

Thx in advanced.

Alex,

I used to use the moviemeter scraper on XBMC4XBOX, but is has been broken for quite a while. I believe this is because of a change on the site or the way scrapers get their fanart. I am not familiar enough with the code to change the scraper myself, but believe the XBMC4 XBOX script was not updated.
On the old forum there was a topic about this, but it got lost.
Maybe also post this on http://www.xbmc4xbox.org.uk/

Ghost,
correct me if I am wrong, but I believe you no longer have an XBOX1, so it will be difficult to adjust, correct?
I do know a bit of xml, so if you can point us in the right direction, I can try to fix it. Will be a challenge though.....

I can not say why the xbox version isn't working because i'm not able to test all the current versions.
I do have an old xbox but it's really outdated. So i first have to update it before i can see what is going on.

So if anybody can fix it please do because i'm currently not able to do it. If you need more information or any help contact me by email or PM. This can be in english and dutch.

I'll send you a note, when I have all the resource available, will download the stable source and provide you the current TMDB xml and the moviemeter one, as TMDB is the most stable for XBMC4XBOX

It seems you get the thumb from movieposter DB:

<!-- Get thums from MoviePoster -->
-<RegExp dest="8+" output="<url function="GetMoviePosterDBLink">http://www.movieposterdb.com/browse/search?type=movies&query=\1</url>" input="$$1"> <expression noclean="1">IMDB Id: ([^<]*)</expression> </RegExp>
<!-- Get Fanart from TMDB -->
-<RegExp dest="8+" output="<url function="GetTMDBFanartById">http://www.imdb.com/title/tt\1</url>" input="$$1"> <expression noclean="1">IMDB Id: ([^<]*)</expression> </RegExp> <expression noclean="1"/>

I see that in the new version of moviemeter (2010-03-26) you pulled out this function and replaced it with GetTMDBThumbsIdChain.

I have edit the old xml file to this wonder if this works?

<!-- Get thumbs not from MoviePoster but TMDB -->
-<RegExp dest="8+" output="<url function="GetTMDBThumbsById">http://www.imdb.com/title/tt\1</url>" input="$$1"> <expression noclean="1">IMDB Id: ([^<]*)</expression> </RegExp>
<!-- Get Fanart from TMDB -->
-<RegExp dest="8+" output="<url function="GetTMDBFanartById">http://www.imdb.com/title/tt\1</url>" input="$$1"> <expression noclean="1">IMDB Id: ([^<]*)</expression>
