Soporte de The Movie Database

Hey guys, first of all, let me thank you for all the work you put into MovieDB. It´s by far the best movie info site with by far the best API out there available. I am developing an add-on for the open source media center software XBMC at the moment and almost everything works perfectly. Almost. :) If I try to create a list by using the API, I always get the following answer: { "error": "Unable to create list because: Description is suspected to be spam.", "failure": true }

I tried lot of different names / desciptions and none seem to work. Any idea what could cause this? Thanks in advance, and let me know if you need further details. Cheers, phil65

Hey Phil,

Thanks for the feedback! With regards to the list error, that's odd… can you show the exact request (with data) that you're making?

Of course: here is the relevant python snippet: http://pastebin.com/aLSr1vbC

Also some videos to show you what I´m workin on: :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7i3z6QxEU3A and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tNPmA3VTB_A

(I will add a fairly large MovieDB logo for release into those dialogs of course to give proper credit, it´s still work in progress and not released)

Hey Phil,

I've been testing this request here, and it's working fine. Can you try this with your keys and let me know the results?

curl -H "Accept: application/json" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d \
"{'name': 'My Awesome List Test', 'description': 'This is my test list.'}" \
"http://api.themoviedb.org/3/list?api_key=###&session_id=###"

P.S. is that rating/favourites/watchlist stuff hooked up to TMDb sessions?

Sure, will test when I get back home. Yes, all hooked to TMDB sessions (needs inputting account details in settings first). I also make use of guest sessions to allow ratings without account so I hope that it will provide a nice quick way to increase the amount of ratings on your site. :) Btw is it possible that it takes some time until the rating for movies gets updated or should that happen instantly?

Thanks.

That is awesome man. I've been hoping someone would build a GUI around our users sessions for XBMC users for quite a while now. Fantastic.

Btw is it possible that it takes some time until the rating for movies gets updated or should that happen instantly?

Ratings won't be updated on the movie itself until the cache expires. Most items expire within 8 hours.

Thanks. :) I can send you some instructions if you want to test it, I have all stuff on my GitHub. (no idea if you know about xbmc / kodi)

Ok, that´s good, I was wondering why the movies got added to my account rating list, but the movie rating did not increase. That explains it. :)

it works using cURL. strange thing is that HTTP POST works for me in Python for Favourites and Ratings. Any idea what could cause this?

You could try using Apiary to log the request to see a full trace of the request. You could compare it to the cURL request and see if there's a difference.

Just an idea because I am pretty confused why one would work and not the other! Especially if you're getting that spam error…

Ok, i never used Apiary before. Will have a look if that gets me somewhere. Thx for the help.

Yeah, workin now :) Apiary showed me that Python´s lib uses a generic user-agent which seems to get blocked by your API. ( user-agent: Python-urllib/2.7 ) I´m overridin that with a custom one now and all is fine :) Perhaps worth mentioning in documentation? And to make use of the opportunity to talk to you directly I would also like to request a "movie/(id)/set" endpoint which returns all setitems the movie is part of. :) Again thanks for your help and all the work you have put into this project. I really admire that.

Huh, no kidding. I didn't even know that would happen :D Happy to hear it's working now. I'll make a note about this for sure.

I would also like to request a "movie/(id)/set" endpoint which returns all setitems the movie is part of. :)

"Set" as in collection? A movie can only belong to a single collection and it's returned in the belongs_to_collection field in the primary movie response.

Thanks Phil.

yes, collection is correct,"set" is the term used in XBMC :) . my idea is that movie/(id)/collection would return all other movies which are part of the collection. (bit like simiar_movies endpoint) Is that more understandable? :)

Oh! I get what you mean now. Understood. I've created a ticket for this here.

Thanks.
