I would like request the addition of two items to GetSearchResults
overview and banner

overview - text description of returned results
banner - image associated with result

I have already modified a few of the scrapers to include these items for UMM (we are using a modified scraperXML in UMM), we plan on adding the feature to all of the scrapers where this information can be returned. (some sites won't have the option).

I have submitted a trac request : http://trac.xbmc.org/ticket/7333

example from a modified themoviedb.org scraper
Output

Code:

<entity><title>\1</title><id>\2</id><year>\4</year><url cache="tmdb-\2.xml" >http://api.themoviedb.org/2.0/Movie.getInfo?id=\2&amp;api_key=57983e31fb435df4df77afb854740ea9</url><banner>\5</banner><overview>\3</overview></entity>

XML

Code:

<RegExp input="$$1" output="&lt;entity&gt;&lt;title&gt;\1&lt;/title&gt;&lt;id&gt;\2&lt;/id&gt;&lt;year&gt;\4&lt;/year&gt;&lt;url cache=&quot;tmdb-\2.xml&quot; &gt;http://api.themoviedb.org/2.0/Movie.getInfo?id=\2&amp;amp;api_key=57983e31fb435df4df77afb854740ea9&lt;/url&gt;&lt;banner&gt;\5&lt;/banner&gt;&lt;overview&gt;\3&lt;/overview&gt;&lt;/entity&gt;" dest="3">
    <expression repeat="yes">&lt;movie&gt;.*?&lt;title&gt;([^&lt;]*)&lt;/title&gt;.*?&lt;id&gt;([^&lt;]*)&lt;/id&gt;.*?&lt;short_overview/?&gt;([^&lt;]*).*?&lt;release/?&gt;([0-9]+)?.*?(?:&lt;poster size=&quot;cover&quot;&gt;(.*?)&lt;/poster&gt;.*?)?&lt;/movie&gt;</expression>
</RegExp>

i have no issues with that - it's xml so we can just ignore them

Or add this to the next next release

Having thumb for the search can help to find the correct film when whe don't know the year

IMO we should not stress the sites that much. Just my 2 cents ofc ..
