[Release] IMDb Update (Movie Ratings + Top250 + MPAA) *Jarvis*
#1
Image

This addon updates the ratings of your movies and the Top250 position from IMDb.

Inspired by this 2 add-ons: Rating Update and IMDb Ratings for Movies

Download:
script.imdbupdate-0.8.10.zip

Attention:
the script gets the ratings from http://omdbapi.com which are only updated once a week, so the votes can differ sometimes.

Bug reports and feature requests are very appreciated.

Features:
  • update the movie rating and vote count (only if something changed)
  • update the IMDB Top250 movies
  • update the MPAA rating for movies (US / DE)
  • write missing Top250 movies to the addon_data folder
  • update only movies with more than 0.1% vote increase (much faster)
  • run in background
  • run periodically
  • start parameters for skinners (see below)
  • resume movie rating update if it was cancelled
  • simple GUI to select what should be updated
  • progress bar

For Skinners:
Create a button with the function:
RunScript( script.imdbupdate, movies [,hidden] ) or
RunScript( script.imdbupdate, top250 [,hidden] ) or
RunScript( script.imdbupdate, mpaa [,hidden] ) or
RunScript( script.imdbupdate, movies|top250|mpaa [,hidden] ) or
RunScript( script.imdbupdate, all [,hidden] )

This add-on seems to work great!

I made a temp icon for myself and thought I would share it.

I am testing all, but I find this one is very quick and simple to use.

That would be great if you can implement those two features, this way I just have to set it and forget it. Big Grin

hm, i don't use this skin... I have no idea...
I will soon release the run periodically function. maybe this will make your context menu button unnecessary?

I turned on run periodically option and rebooted my machine. When XBMC started it prompted me that the update was starting. As soon as it started XBMC locked up and restarted.

I will try to replicate it again tomorrow and report back.

Specs:

Zotac AD-04, 4GB RAM, AMD
OpenELEC 3.0.6
