I have thought cause the endpoints that are called via HTTPS it's possible with any scripting language.Letterboxd is in its infancy with its API, so API Wrappers are still work in progress. With time, someone will write a wrapper I can use in Media Companion
Just like I brought my very limited knowledge together with Windows PowerShell to get data from ThemovieDB
But I see ThemovieDB offers a dozen ways to access the API and Letterboxd only 3

Quote:Maybe you have interest to implement a link shortcut for quick visit without clicking scrambling around in the browser same like IMDB,TMDB,TVDB,FANART.TVThose shortcut/links for IMDB/TMDb and Fanart.Tv are tabs not buttons.
The main links are usually this format https://letterboxd.com/film/star-trek-first-contact/
But the links can be autogenerated simple with: https://letterboxd.com/tmdb/199 -> https://letterboxd.com/tmdb/tmdbID
Adding some function...somewhere... to open the letterboxd site to the specific movie is not a bad idea, but I wouldn't add a new tab just for this. Maybe a button somewhere else, or even in the right-click context menu when right clicking a movie?
So, that is what I have just done.
Currently users can right click a movie and you can choose to open the webpage of the movie at TMDB, If in a Set you can open the Set page at TMDb. AND in the next release, you can open the movie page at LetterBoxD.
Quote:Just my 2 cents: I would place the IMDB/TMDB button besides instead toggle, and also FANART.TV beside.I'd completely forgotten I'd added opening the Fanart.Tv webpage by right clicking the tab header. I don't recall why I set it to not open if the movie was in a collection. Might need to revamp this functionality.
I found out the IMDB/TMDB toggle very late. And just a few months ago i found out how the FANART.TV links working.
If not a Set right click FANART.TV button in Main Windows, if it is a Set this button is dead on right click instead click into the FANART.TV tab, with left click change if Main Movie or Set and right click open the link *gg*
Don't know how to do better but it's really long sentence to explain how it's functional^^
Quote:Anyway, your work is much appreciated! I am the same long time in MC as in Kodi. Thousands of hours.
Always happy to get suggestions, but please don't be offended if suggestions are not taken onboard for development.
