Not downloading all meta data ( IMDB movie scraper does not return a plot) - john_es - 2017-12-20

Just starting today, I cannot get Ember to download the  IMDB movie scraper does not return a plot or list of cast...  This is on the 1.4.7.2 and the latest daily build.

Any idea how I can fix this?

IMDB has already changed a lot on the website. I have to take over the changes first.

also in 1.4.9.x actors, directors etc are not scrapped

IMDB scraper is broken since they have changed/removed to "combined" webpage.

 Not rushing you in any way, for sure.  But is there a time frame for this?  Just trying to figure out plan B.

Plan B would be using the themoviedb scraper for now, it's not as complete regarding actors but at least it's still working.
Meanwhile I sincerely thank Dancooper and everyone else who are working to get the IMDB scraper functioning again.

Yea this is a pain. Would be really useful to fix this.

I've started rewriting today. Please be patient, movie part will be soon fixed and ready to test.

good to hear Big Grin

Movie part has been fixed: Github
Please wait for the next build from komplex and report issues. The "/reference" page has not been finished by IMDB and the results are not always that what we want (e.g. MPAA, release year, outline).

Just added a new fix for rating like 8 instead of 8.0.
