Hi
After upgrading my imdbpy installation from 3.6 (that comes with
ubuntu) to 3.9 I've found that it has broken compatibility with a few
packages ; mainly MythTV.
3.6 used to report the plot of a movie as:
Author::Content
example:
IMDB entry 0993910:
u"Kevlar01::The Colonial fleet and the Cylons engage in a costly
battle within the Ionian Nebula, Gaius becomes the figurehead of a
religious sect hiding on Galactica, and Starbuck's resurrection shocks
and terrifies the fleet. Meanwhile, Colonel Tigh, Galen Tyrol, Sam
Anders, and Tory Foster struggle with the revelation that the are
Cylons."
3.9 plot is formed as:
Content::Author
Example
IMDB entry 0993910
u"The Colonial fleet and the Cylons engage in a costly battle within
the Ionian Nebula, Gaius becomes the figurehead of a religious sect
hiding on Galactica, and Starbuck's resurrection shocks and terrifies
the fleet. Meanwhile, Colonel Tigh, Galen Tyrol, Sam Anders, and Tory
Foster struggle with the revelation that the are Cylons.::Kevlar01"
Also, some bugs introduced...
I didn't investigate this one too much yet. But an example:
With 3.6:
>>> import imdb
>>> imdb_access = imdb.IMDb()
>>> title = u"house"
>>> imdb_access.search_movie(title.encode("ascii",'replace'))
[<Movie id:0412142[http] title:_"House M.D." (2004)_>, <Movie
id:0091223[http] title:_House (1986)_>, <Movie id:0837796[http]
title:_House (2008)_>, <Movie id:0076162[http] title:_Hausu (1977)_>,
<Movie id:0113342[http] title:_House (1996)_>, <Movie id:0201670[http]
title:_House! (2000)_>, <Movie id:0051544[http] title:_Dom (1958)_>,
<Movie id:0356705[http] title:_House (1995)_>, <Movie id:0364309[http]

id:0462322[http] title:_Grindhouse (2007)_>, <Movie id:0173664[http]
title:_"Bear in the Big Blue House" (1997)_>, <Movie id:0124315[http]
title:_Cider House Rules, The (1999)_>, <Movie id:0385004[http]
title:_Shi mian mai fu (2004)_>, <Movie id:0077975[http] title:_Animal
House (1978)_>, <Movie id:0758774[http] title:_Body of Lies (2008)_>,
<Movie id:0054533[http] title:_"Dick Van Dyke Show, The" (1961)_>]
With 3.9:
>>> import imdb
>>> imdb_access = imdb.IMDb()
>>> title= u"house"
>>> imdb_access.search_movie(title.encode("ascii",'replace'))
Traceback (most recent call last):

Hope this helps.
