Hi Rob,

I can't help you with any specific code but a movie search will return an array object called results. You should iterate over that array for each result. Each result object contains an overview object which is what you're looking for. You can see what those responses look like in the documentation I just linked to.

"I can't help you with any specific code"

As it turns out, neither can the creator of the library I'm using. I emailed them and this was the response:

"You would want to look at searching then. Possibly even the Discovery method calls"

Everyone wants to write software, but nobody wants to tell people how to use it. I've looked at three libraries that have maybe 20 lines of documentation each.

Sorry, rant over.

Thank you Travis.

Assuming you're writing C# (I'm assuming you are since yo mentioned the TMDbLib lib) this library here, has some examples near the bottom of his readme that outlines a search and get results. That might be useful.

I've never written a single line of C# in my life so unfortunately, I can't contribute much beyond linking to some docs.

P.S. based on LordMike's GitHub page, which I didn't see before, he has a similar example.

TMDbClient client = new TMDbClient("APIKey");
SearchContainer<SearchMovie> results = client.SearchMovieAsync("007").Result;

Console.WriteLine($"Got {results.Results.Count:N0} of {results.TotalResults:N0} results");
foreach (SearchMovie result in results.Results)
    Console.WriteLine(result.Title);

That example is iterating over the results array, and writing the title to the console. Use Console.WriteLine(result.Overview); to get the overview.
