    SearchWizX2 and IMDB Information

    Hi, I'm a pretty new user of GBPVR and have been tweaking and playing with plugins for the past couple of weeks. Anyway, from what I've read here on the forums, IMDB has changed their site completely so the 'scraping' that SearchWiz does for the program details is not working. I'm actually quite happy with SearchWiz otherwise and would like to figure out how I could have SearchWiz query MovieDB instead.

    Is this possible?

    Thanks for your time.

    I've been missing the movie info in SearchWiz also. Although I don't have much time for coding anymore, your request prompted me to take a look at the problem. I think I have a new version that works with TheMovieDB, I need to do a little more testing, and I'll post a new version in this thread.

    Hey Java,

    Just wanted to let you know that I tried the version you posted above and so far it works great! The movie information at least, is showing up on the details popup from MovieDB. I can't thank you enough again for all your effort!
