Movie API request - Video attribute
posted by dlgSTAFFMOD on February 25, 2015 at 1:29 PM
What exactly is the video property denoting on a movie request? My assumption was that it flagged any direct to video films although Toy Story 2 is returning as video=true. Although this could easily be a content issue I wanted to inquire before I edited anything incorrectly or misused the attribute on my side.

Hi dlg,

Awesome. thanks for the quick response. So would this be seen as a data content issue? Toy Story 3 is part of a collection but should be seen as a autonomous film.

They shouldn't have been marked as a video, no. I've gone in and corrected all three Toy Story movies.
Cheers.

Awesome. I would have updated myself but I am new to the community and wanted to make sure before I did anything rash :) Thanks!
