Hi gorrors,

Did you try? Kind of like this?

http://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/tt0137523?api_key=###

Cheers. :D

wow I wish I asked that question days ago, Thats brilliant saved me so much work, Thanks again, if you could guess what would you say is the percentage of your movies have imdb ids 50%?

If I was to guess, somewhere around 80%. It's very well supported.

Thanks again I wish I could program like you guys, its criminal how I program this is an example;

$html2 = str_replace( "\"imdb_id\":", "START-IMDB", $html2); $html2 = str_replace( ",", "END", $html2); $html2 = str_replace( "\"", "", $html2); $html2 = str_replace( "\"", "", $html2); preg_match ("/START-IMDB([^`]*?)END/", $html2, $temp); $imdb = $temp[1];

thats how I get a vaule out of your api -_-' I dont get the whole json veraible stuff. Im sure the proper way is much faster!

Out of interest Gorrors have you looked into use one of the API wrappers. You might find it easier. I personally use the PHP wrapper by glamorous you can get a complete list here https://www.themoviedb.org/documentation/api/wrappers-libraries

in your documentation, to find thanks to the IMDB id, it says to use the url: http://api.themoviedb.org/3/find/tt0137523?api_key=### but the result is "{"status_code":6,"status_message":"Invalid id: The pre-requisite id is invalid or not found."}" .... So i use this url : http://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/tt0137523?api_key=### ...

Your find query isn't right, this would be what you're looking for:

https://api.themoviedb.org/3/find/tt0137523?api_key=###&external_source=imdb_id

The movie query works but it is not documented nor guaranteed to work nor does it work for TV (my original post is 2 years old and before we had the find query).

Thank you !
