Hi,

Thanks for the cool addons!
I'm having troubles getting the imdb trailer addon to work lately. Is it known to work under final Frodo? I keep getting errors when clicking on any of the three lists of trailers.

Code:

Is IMDb blocking the requests by returning 403 Errors?

Any help is appreciated!

I will check as soon as possible.

Hi,

I have the exact same problem, I am using frodo too.

@queeup

I had a look at the code and submitted a pull request with fixes to your github repo.

Cheers

Videos playing fine, but I don't see any posters and/or fanart. Is it possible to add this?
If important, I'm using the reFocus BIG skin.

[queeup]

Code:

plugin.video.imdb.trailers: updated to v2.0.6
-fixes Useragent filtering
-add all genres as comma separated list
-thanks to thomaswr.

Posters working fine here. Fanart not sure I am ultra busy. Sorry for long delays

[namtih]

No, unfortunately no posters here.
But probably an issue in combination with the reFocus BIG skin, when it's still working for you.

But videos playing fine and that's the most important thing. So take your time...


Edit:
The addon "The Trailers" seems to use a similar list view and the posters are working there.
So perhaps you can find there what would be a better way to display it.

is anyone else having a problem when trying to add to couchpotato? (it just never shows up)..

also not sure if im missing something but the app on my phone requires the couchpotato api, am i supposed to put the api in this addon somewhere?

--EDIT

I Filled out the CouchPotato Section Correctly and then selected a movie to "Add to CouchPotato" but nothing worked..

after posting this message I setup CouchPotatoServer Section the same way and selected a Movie to "Add to CouchPotatoServer" and it worked like a charm, am i missing something or shouldnt the first one be the one working?

--EDIT AGAIN

Nevermind, im sorry lol it looks like CouchPotato V2 is CPS and I have V2... Now all i have to do is figure out how to automatically show everyone else in the house our CP wanted list without giving out the password.

I have the issue also with another Video addon and sphere was so kind to have a closer look to it. According to him it's a skin issue.

So we will see, if it gets fixed :-)

[queeup]

Thanks for info. You save me from a lot of investigation

I am going to remove Couchpotato V1 support. If anybody using it, it's time to move on V2

[queeup]

plugin.video.imdb.trailers: updated to v2.0.7
-removed couchpotato V1 support

+1 getting 403 errors from IMDB when using urllib2 to scrape. (Not a Trailers problem, but thought you'd like to know that you're not alone).

Like wikipedia and several others, you need to declare headers in order to interact with their sites with urllib. This code works:

Code:

#begin loop for the imdb url list
   for imdburl in imdburllist:
      listid=imdburl.split('/')[4]
      opener = urllib2.build_opener()
      opener.addheaders = [('User-agent', 'Mozilla/5.0')]
      infile = opener.open(imdburl)
      imdbpage=infile.read()
      infile.close()
# searches the urllib results using re and regex, returns IMDBIDs
      imdblist = re.findall(r'<a href="/title/(tt[0-9]{7})/">.+?</a>', imdbpage)
      imdbuser = re.findall(r'<title>IMDb: (.+?)&#x27;s Watchlist</title>', imdbpage)

Thx for the solution. I will fix it next week. I am going business vocation.
