Rotten Tomatoes (100 per day)

[vixxy 8]

Quick question. I have a library of 3k movies, so it will take a while to populate everything with RT ratings. 

 

Do I have to run the scan manually to update 100 movies a day, or does the server do it automatically providing it's on.

It will happen with the regular library scan.

@@Luke, can OMDB fetcher be edited to pull RT data without a daily limit?

by adding &tomatoes=true

it already does but that's only for the rating. the plugin gets the journalist reviews.

[vixxy 8]

Is the "regular" library scan the automatic one or manual.

[Luke 42077]

both, same thing.

Hi, I installed this plugin a couple of months ago. I do have over 1500 movies so I realize it would take a while to populate, but I don't really see any reviews. I clicked on a bunch of movies in the web app, android app and the windows uwp app. How can I confirm it's working?

 

Thanks

At this point it is just the tomato icon rating.

[aptalca 71]

Ah, is that due to rt api changes?

 

Thanks

[Luke 42077]

The data is very expensive now.

@@Luke - Has the plug-in been removed from availability?  I can't find it on a fresh installation in Linux on 3.2.30.  Is the functionality built into Emby now or has it been discontinued?

[Luke 42077]

The ratings are built in.

[Burrito78 15]

The ratings are built in.

 

 

That explains why it stopped showing up correctly under plugins. Would be better to have it uninstalled automatically during upgrade if possible + an explanation in the changelog.

[mcasey6747 1]

So are there any settings to configure?  Mine doesn't show any new ratings since I uninstalled the plugin about a month ago.  

 

How does this work?  I also don't see a scheduled task for any sort of ratings download although I'm not sure there has to be now.  

 

Thanks

[Luke 42077]

It's just built into the regular movie metadata providers. What you could try to do as a test is refresh an individual movie using the 3-dot menu in the detail screen. 

[mcasey6747 1]

hmmm... doesn't solve it.  Even if it did, I'd have to manually refresh it for all my movies and shows?

Why don't you think that solves it? What do you feel is missing? Thanks !

[mcasey6747 1]

The rotten tomato reviews still don't come up.  Just the other 2 rating systems (the red star and the green thing)

 

There should be a tomato with a score out of 100 right?  

[Luke 42077]

What red star and green thing? can you show a screenshot? that sounds like the green tomato icon. thanks.

[mcasey6747 1]

Am I just being an idiot?  I'm sorry if i am. 

[mcasey6747 1]

Okay so after looking into this, it seems like crappy movies have the green thing.  Which makes sense as you couldn't pay me to watch transformers 87 or whatever number they are on.  Sorry for the question I think I'm working fine. 

[Luke 42077]

Thanks for the feedback.

[aptalca 71]

Red star is the rating, could be from imdb or themoviedb, etc. The other one is the rotten tomato rating. Anything over 50% is a red fresh tomato. Under 50% is a green rotten tomato

[mcasey6747 1]

Yeah thanks.  Sorry about that
