Implement Movie Hash Lookup (TMDB) #282

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Implementing movie hash support as described here.
http://trac.opensubtitles.org/projects/opensubtitles/wiki/OSDb

Involves adding the methods to generate the hash, extra field in
DBLocalMedia to store this hash, a new signature property and a new
signaturebuilder.

This is the first move towards solid subtitle download support and
eventually would allow the application to give something back to the
community by confirming/uploading data also.

Based on performance issues of opensubtitles.org that apondman and I discussed, 
I am 
going to push this issue off to the 0.8 release.

When this gets implemented, it would be great if the plugin checks for 
subtitles 
everytime the plugin launches. One of the biggest problem is that sometimes the 
subtitle is not available at the first time you get the movie, but will be 
uploaded 
at a later stage.

Also the ability to mark a subtitle as good or bad is a must-have and would 
really 
make this feature worthwhile. I rarely rates subtiltes on opensubtitles, simply 
because I watch movies/TVseries from my HTPC and I have to go to my laptop to 
make a 
rating. Having this possibility in the MP GUI (perhaps even with an option to 
show a 
popup after the movie finishes "was the subtitles correct? Yes/no" or "rate the 
subtitle 1-5") would be great.

I always try to use Opensubtitles SubDownloader (which is a GUI app that uses 
the 
same hashing as you are planning) and often I can find the correct subtitle 
this way.

This would be a great feature, especially combined with Logo rules where it 
would be 
easy to see which movies has subtitles.

I'm afraid i have to let this slip to a later milestone because the current 
state of
the OpenSubtitles.org API is unreliable. Most code is already working but will 
only
slow down the import process if the API is having trouble.

for more info see this thread on OSDB:

btw. I opened a ticket with themoviedb.org asking if they could implement movie
hashes as well and the answer seems very promising:

https://meticulo.lighthouseapp.com/projects/17044/tickets/142-movie-hashes

Maybe MovingPictures could apply to be one of the programs that are allowed to 
also
send hashes (e.g. when the user has manually approved a movie) via the api...

Will this be available in 0.8?

using hash lookup with TheMovieDB will be possible in 0.8. Sending hashes is 
not 
certain yet.

Changing issue title and closing. OSDB is not relevant anymore as TMDB uses the 
same 
hash technique. Hash lookup is already available in current version and for the 
hash 
uploading a new issue will be created.
