Do they have a public API?  We don't employ web scraping as a rule.

 

Seems yes, i found this, but there were more results when i tried to search on google. Don't know excatly what's needed to make it running in MB3. It would be great however to have CSFD scraper (Czech and Slovak movie database)

Hello,

thank you for your quick reply, Luke.

I was thinking what about adding only CSFD.cz rating?

 

As it was said that there's csfd.cz scraper (unofficial, but working one) for Kodi. 

Maybe it shouldnt be so hard to adapt it to Emby?

Hello,
has anyone created a plugin for CSFD.cz? It's been a few years since the topic was created...

Thanks!

HI, not that I'm aware. This would be a great project for a community contributor.

Hello everyone.

I completed unoffical web API for csfd.

All possibillities are:
others =>  'sk', 'at', 'gb', 'us', 'de', 'es', 'fi', 'fr', 'hu', 'pl'

It will return also nice images, but without resolution in hires array. If you want to get resolution, I can do this, but it is superslow. So now it is disabled for better performance.
 
There is cache for 1 month. If movie is made by year as now, there is 14 days cache. Within two months after the premiere is, there is 7 days cache.
 
API is hosted via free hosting, so please dont blame me for speed. On my VPS it can parse about 10seconds with 50 images with hires resolution.
