That's not good; I'd try to fix these, too. Do you have an example of the text of one of the warnings? > 1) downloading every file on imdb interface and running IMDbPY script > at the end of each week (that will certainly be more accurate but > time consuming) After that you have to identify which ones are new. That's not easy as it seems, since movies can change titles (while still in production but even after release). Maybe you can check the release dates to see which movies are about to be released, but I'm not sure it will suit your needs. > 2) Properly crawling http://www.imdb.com/nowplaying/ or > http://italian.imdb.com/Recent/ >From there you can parse titles/movieID pairs, check if the title is "new to you" and fetch its data if needed. > Please, let me know if you have any other idea than those two. Probably fetching a list on the web is the best solution: I don't know if these lists are complete, but look exactly what you need.
