ShowTimes Plugin Suite Download

Description:

UPDATE: April 28/2007

With the help of Zebons , we now have a fully functional internationalized (at least from the skin point of view) version of myShowTimes. Please make sure you use the newest mtsa.exe (included in zip file) as well as it has some fixes in it for non North American locations.

There are two language files included. One for the standard english (strings_en.xml) and one for French (string_fr.xml).

You now have the ability to name the GUI plugin what you wish. This is located in the last tab in the Grabber configuration (yah, too lazy to create a config specifically for the GUI).

As usual, post any bugs or suggestions to the forum. Just remember I move slow sometimes due to "life". If I'm not around or not moving fast ont hese things, I haven't disappeared. I still have plans for a version 2, including getting Apple trailers working (maybe with some code from the OnlineVideo plugin) and a ShowTimes EPG.

UPDATE:

I have fixed the incompatible plugin message. Replace your ShowTimesGUI.dll with the one in the latest zip package (ShowTimesSuitV1.0.0_Feb3.zip)

 

Hi all,

this set of plugins was initially started as an extension to the myTrailers plugin but after much development/procrastination/normal life they grew into a life of their own. What are these plugins you might be asking your self?

There are two plugins as part of this suite. The first plugin is a process plugin. It uses an external application to download movie showtimes for your local theaters. It allows for the option to schedule a download of movie data from IMDB, Apple Trailers and movie posters. It can also manage your downloaded posters and trailers and remove ones that are no longer required.

The second part of the plugin is the GUI portion that displays all of the data downloaded by the Grabber process plugin. The GUI has a screen that will work with the Blue Two skin and one that works with the MePo Wide set (Grey, Green and Black). These are included in the zip file.

I have included in the zip file, a document that explains the way it all works together plus installation and configuration.

A couple of things to note:

1) This plugin does not current handle Apple Streams. It's planned to be added in a future release.

2) Because the grabber can download the Apple Trailers, it can take some time on initial run so I highly suggest you do a manual download from the Grabber Configuration first.

3) Picking your movie theaters varies by country. Some can do it by zip/postal code, some by city and country. For more information, see: http://movietimes.home.comcast.net/mtsa/index.html


There are some other things in the documentation included in the zip file, please read through it.

Thanks to everyone who has waited for these plugins and thanks to Mike for testing them out.

from RICHARDG - Great idea. Living in north america, this is great fo rme. bu tI get an error that the plugin is not compatible with the version of Mp, which is odd as its the latest version. I tend to keep current. Also the literature indicates a slightly different showtime.dll then what is in the zip file

from falkyre - RICAHRDG can you please PM me with the details of the difference? Thanks, Falkyre
