Recent releases


Changes: This release adds genre support, search/browse functionality for genres, and full-text search for titles. Movies are now stored with their own (not IMDB) key as the primary key, so the same movie can be inserted several times. The search function has been rewritten. Searching is more powerful and much faster for some queries. PDF export also works with the ezpdf PHP class, which is easier to set up (no compilation needed).


Changes: Missing decoding of gzipped HTML has been fixed. This had been causing data fetching from IMDB not to work.


Changes: A problem which caused the script to hang when getting movie info from IMDB was fixed. Errors which occurred when fetching persons from IMDB were fixed. Errors in the search function were corrected. The "image" MIME type is now outputted correctly.
