The Movie Database Support

Movie List – movies are all null (Sometimes)

Hi all,

I’ve another problem^

I was just implementing the list/{id} method, when I realized that the TMDb API sometimes returns only null values for movies in a movie list.

For example:

http://api.themoviedb.org/3/list/509ec17b19c2950a0600050d?api_key=################################

Return the following JSON:


{"created_by":"Travis Bell",
"description":"Here's my list of best picture winners for the Oscars. Thought it would be neat to see them all together. There's a lot of movies here I have never even heard of.",
"favorite_count":12,"id":"509ec17b19c2950a0600050d","items":[null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,
null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,
null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,
null,null,null,null,null,null,null],
"item_count":85,"iso_639_1":"en","name":"Best Picture Winners - The Academy Awards","poster_path":"/efBm2Nm2v5kQnO0w3hYcW6hVsJU.jpg"}

But when I open the list on the TMDb all movies are getting displayed

http://www.themoviedb.org/list/509ec17b19c2950a0600050d

…And some other API requests are working as expected, for example:

http://api.themoviedb.org/3/list/50cbe90b19c2956de8047b4f?api_key=################################

Edit:

The item_status method returns also incorrect data for the list with id: 509ec17b19c2950a0600050d

Request: (MovieId 1422 => The Departed)

http://api.themoviedb.org/3/list/509ec17b19c2950a0600050d/item_status?api_key=###########&movie_id=1422

JSON:

{"id":"509ec17b19c2950a0600050d","item_present":false}
(The movie is present in the list, but the API returns item_present=false)

Hey musiumincapitiss,

Thanks for reporting this. I've created a new ticket about the list items being null.

I'm pretty sure the item_status will work once the item is present, but in this case since they are all null, naturally they are not. I'll take a look at this today.

Thanks.

Thanks for your help.

The lists should be working now.

Cheers.

Works like a charme now, thanks.
