DVD pedia search plugins
Posted: Fri Mar 11, 2011 6:43 am
I have two questions/requests regarding the search plugins.
1. Maybe I just have not noticed yet, but it seems to me like DVD pedia stops at the first and best match it can find. In most cases, this is correct and I am satisfied with the result. But what if it somehow is not the right version, lack of details, etc. If the software finds a perfect match in Amazon.com, it looks like it does not continue to scan IMDB or other sites for more information (that might be more accurate). Is this right?
2. Since I am from Norway, I have a lot of Norwegian films or Norwegian distributed films in my collection. This causes problems for the software, as there are currently no search plugins for Norwegian sites. I noticed there are Swedish though, so maybe it would be possible to add a Norwegian one as well? I don't know the requirements for a site to be functional as a search plugin, but at least here are two good online DVD stores in Norway:
www.cdon.no
www.platekompaniet.no
