Is it possible to show for a movie by use of an HTML-part or a plugin:

  • the position of the movie in de imbd rank top 250 (position and voters), if available

  • the ratings (stars) of the movie by the users on moviemeter.nl


  • I've searched on the forum and in the downloads for these options but couldn't find (or have missed) it.

    Anyone?

    It may be possible via an ajax or an ajax-like call via JavaScript but it would most likely involve screen scraping which is against IMDB's TOS.  Plus, a change to how they display their data would probably break the script as well.

    One thing for sure, you won't see native support for it in the program itself.

    I used tags and the tag reads AFI.. then in the Notes box I typed in which of the ten plus catagories of AFI, as well as the # number of the title in question ..
