Media Ressource Database: Problems with IMDB

Hello,
my video library is still growing. To retrieve meta-data from several different movie-databases is really nice thing. Its kind of cool to have movie pictures, genres, actors and so on on your device display.
But I have a small problem with the script of IMDB-reading: I've modified it for the german version of IMDB, but got still the problem of putting the year into the proper field. Also the list of actors isn't completed filled by the script. Only the first actor is choosing by script. Other scripts (I think TheMovieDB.org) works well, but is not in german available.
Has anyone a modified script for IMDB.de with more then one actor and year insertion????
Thanks alot.
Bye.

Code: Select all
...
csImdbTitle = '<title>(.*?)</title>';
csImdbYear = '<title>.*?\((.*?)\)</title>';
...
AddMediaInfoMulti(IMDBItem, [csImdbColor, 'Color',
csImdbCountry, 'Country',
...
csImdbPlot, 'Plot',
csImdbYear, 'Year']);
...
SetMediaItemProperties(IMDBItem, ['Title', 'mpTitle', 'Genre', 'mpGenre',
'Director', 'mpDirector', 'Year', 'mpYear']);
For actors uncomment
Code: Select all
// Actor list
ActorItem := IMDBItem.ChildList.FindItem('Cast');
if ActorItem <> nil then begin
sActorList := '';
for i := 0 to ActorItem.ChildList.Count - 1 do begin
if sActorList <> '' then
sActorList := sActorList + ', ';
sActorList := sActorList + ActorItem.ChildList[i].Name;
end;
if sActorList <> '' then
WmsSetMediaItemProperty('mpActor', sActorList);
end;

Sorry for the delay.
Thank you very much, Eugene. This helps alot.
But I have still small problem: What about germans "Umlaute" (e.g. in genre names as "Komödie"). Is there an option available to handle this type of chars?
Thanks again.

In Control Panel (Regional and Language Settings), try to choose German for non-Unicode programs
