Well, I did this (the manual imdb search), and had issues. I grabbed "tt0327162" from the url and tried it, 0327162 and 327162. All of them caused imdb.pl to croak complaining about a concatenation error on line 214 and 215. Any ideas? _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
