More tests.
From a folder with 10 movies from '50, all the titles are retrieved automagically.
Imdb top 250 ok
Tagline wrong (it shows the plot)
Writer missing
The plot is truncated, because the info is retrieved from the main page.
I think the scraper should retrieve plot info from the page http://www.imdb.it/title/ttnumber/plotsummary and not from http://www.imdb.it/title/ttnumber

Tnx henrava for your tests, the plot you see is from comingsoon.it ,I just wanted to see how it would work
![]() All the tagline, outline and plot still need some work to be fixed. @gulp film.it seem to me it doesn't find much movies as comingsoon, so i think i'll keep it for now XBMC Italian translator, Movieplayer.it scrapers developer and the old "The Orbs" skin creator. |

KoTiX, i just have checked the imdb.it site, the plot is from here, not from comingsoon. The movie is "A qualcuno piace caldo" (Some like it hot).
Tomorrow i have to check a folder with more recent movies, to be sure the plot is retrieved correctly. Bye and thanks. |

Here is an update: http://www.mediafire.com/?b7qrpgt3sc9nn26
Now it get the right iMDb poster, the comingsoon poster and trailer, the poster is first taken from imdb, if it is missing can be taken from comingsoon, just check the settings. There are still some bugs but should be good enought for now

I am a bit disappointed to read that my favorite scraper (movieplayer) is dead. I dont find all the other movie sites mentioned here are equally good. Mymovies (which already has a scraper) and Comingsoon have both very long plots and often they also reveal too much about the movie, partly ruining their vision.
I really thank the developers for their work so far but I also hope they change their mind about quitting the movieplayer database, which is the main thing which made me prefer this scraper over all the rest. |

fabwolf,
if you want to use Movieplayer scraper this version is fully functional: http://www.mediafire.com/?tnu91y75nrn382b and i don't think that this scraper is dead, now is also very easy to adapt in case of other changes on movieplayer site. KoTiX, is possible to submit this functional version to official repo (or if you prefer can i open a ticket and submit the new version), or is better to create a new thread and create another version of movieplayer scraper? If we can submit this version, is better to remove conditional imdb on regexp and in preferences (i can do it, i've a lot of free time, i'm at home with a broken arm ).For a new italian scraper, i think that film.it has very good plot description (short and without spoiler) and so is better than comingsoon and mymovies.

updated again, now we use only imdb.com (without need to scrape also imdb.it to take the original title)
Download it from official git repository ( now i'm kotix collaborator so the git repo contains always the most recent version)https://github.com/KoTiX/movieplayer_fil...all/master if tests are ok for you too, i'll submit it to official xbmc repo. |
