Im looking for a fast way to extract images and descriptions

August 27th, 2013

hello
im looking for a fast way to extract images and descriptions from IMDB
like some program that can visit a list of IMDB URL’s and gather info for me
or better yet go threw a list of movie names gathering IMDB URL’s and info (but im not sure that is possible to do accurately

Answer #1
You could use a screencapping script to take a screencap of a certain portion of the screen and autosave it a folder by using a shortcut key combination.
This would make screecapping the page much easier, but you’d need to manually visit the IMDB page.

hmmmm intresting aproch
would make for a larger pic though (make pages load slower)
like im preparing a post of about 800 Drama movies rate now better text then a pic of text in something that size
stiil is an intresting idea though
ive been told there are programs that can grab info from IMDB
hmmm I was also in a forum a few months back (torrents) then when you posted movies you had to give the forum the IMDB URL and then it would add pics decriptions and some other stuff from IMDB itself
was kinda cool

Sounds interesting, I had no idea anything like that exists.
Here’s one I found: http://imdb-ripper.en.softonic.com/
That seems to be something similar.
Answer #4
if you understand this script you could probably find out how they did it, and modify it for yourself.

Answer #6
a crap
the FF plugin generates results in a hard way to make use of them
and the other thingy wont work on my server (I suspect cause I don’t have adminastrative access)
