midgetspy Wrote:Well AMT = Apple Movie Trailers. I don't think there is an XBMC scraper for it, no.

I don't know how the Apple Movie Trailers plugin for XBMC works (does apple have an API? Is it scraping HTML/RSS?) but I'd think you could just steal the functionality from there.

TBH I've never used trailers either because they can't be automatically scraped outside of the US (afaik) and it would be way too much work to do it manually. But if they could be scraped by EMM that would be fantastic.

AnalogKid Wrote:Gotcha on the <movie>.ext and movie.ext

Possibly this might need a little more explanation in the UI, and well, maybe the logic too.... since on loading the media, everything's found... wouldn't it be fair to check for both during operation? (can't be much slower right?)

AFAIK, my setup is optimal for Aeon, but Aeon's requirements keep changing!

Don't worry about it if it's a problem... it's only eye candy, and there are bigger things to work on!

AnalogKid Wrote:I had an idea also.... fairly radical in one sense, but also quite logical....
In the checkbox columns.... esp for unchecked / unfound items... IF the user clicks on the checkbox, it would be neat if you could offer the user a chance to scrape the missing item. ie. if they have no fanart, let them click the empty checkbox and prompt "Wanna download the missing fanart?"

Just an idea.... but seemed quite nice and logical to me

AnalogKid Wrote:You could also consider sorting on all the columns... a nice way to find out all the missing items (I'm sure you know what I mean)

AnalogKid Wrote:See.. I'm offering new ideas now.... things get very dangerous when that happens!

sumofatguy Wrote:yep, that was only for wayne's world. Not quite sure why it was only for that one... just tried for behind enemy lines, and it worked fine, so I don't really know whats going on. Just thought I would let you know

Nazgulled Wrote:As far as I could understand from the code, this script uses an RSS feed to locate the trailers which is a bad choice in my opinion. The best way to get every trailer in every resolution possible is to parse the page HTML and get the links from there.

midgetspy Wrote:Hmm it looks like AMT only has newish movie trailers anyway so I guess that won't really be the best place to scrape from... maybe I will try to find a different site and write an XBMC-style scraper for it.

Nazgulled Wrote:That's because they use the RSS feed and that feed only shows the latest ones.

Apple website is nice for trailers but only for a plugin as AMT, not to look for trailers about every possible movie.
