The Unofficial IMDB Api is unfortunately not a 100% reliable, but it makes it easy for me to pull some data off of, like IMDB ratings, extended plots and plot outlines.
Once I find out a better way or a way to easily extract data from IMDB itself, I'll likely be switching over to that instead.
Now for a news update:
I've recently been fired from my job, since they had nothing to do for me for the past 6 months or so, so pretty much out of boredom, next to the need to have a Mac compatible media manager, I started working on ViMM! and practical got paid to do so! at least, for a while...
Unfortunately all good things can't last forever, working as the last web developer for a company that was no longer focusing on web development, they had to let me go, this means I'll have to use my time now to get a new job, and once I find one, and everything goes well, I won't be likely to work on ViMM during work hours anymore. :rolleyes2:
Now for some good news, although development will slow down for a while, I WILL continue working on ViMM! I've got some pretty neat ideas that I REALLY want to implement, and that I think is going to make ViMM one of the coolest Media Manager applications out there.
That said, I won't likely be able to get the new release out of the door in the coming month or 2.. But stay tuned for updates in this thread, or on my ViMM Twitter feed @ViMediaManager, which I will try to update with new information as often as possible.
And I will of course, continue to answer any questions about ViMediaManager!
