Hi,

Trying to learn a little (very little) perl, I'd like to modify the
imdb.pl that MythVideo uses for it's searches to make one that searches
tv.com instead.
However, having lost my C++ reading skills totally and therefore not
being able to find out myself, I wonder how MythVideo will react on
getting a second list of 'movieid:Movie Title' when having selected one
from the first query? Will it show you another select title window or
will it try to ?


No. It will fetch the data and then the poster. We should change this to be able to do what you say: search different sources and then decide which of it gives the best result. This is specially a problem when the video is in languages other than English like French, German, Spanish...
This is since i have not found a good way search for episodes on tv.com. If anyone know of a good way finding episode info
from tv.com or anything with equally good info, please tell me.


If no one else want, I can do the script for tv.com (in python, as I'm learning it :) )

That would be great, I didn't find a good way too get info for specific episodes (didn't try too hard either). So I gave up that try to learn Perl :/

One is able to get generic info from tv.com's search in the way the imdb-fetch works, but the reason I asked for two results is to get:

1. Search result of series from tv.com
2. When selected series in #1, fetch list of episodes and from there I'm not really sure wether to filter this list based on search query or just list them all (can be _many_).

Got any idea?
