I made a little command line tool that scrapes data from imdb and writes it as matroska tags.
If you want the tags for a specific movie, just pass its imdb title url to the tool. Here is an example for "Star Wars Episode IV":
Code:
imdb2mkvtags -o foo.xml https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0076759/
This will save the tags to
foo.xml which can then be muxed into a matroska file with mkvtoolnix.
If you also want the
full credits with all actors and characters in your tag file, not just what's on the title page, use this:
Code:
imdb2mkvtags -o foo.xml -opts fullcredits=1 https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0076759/
To install imdb2mkvtags, install
go first, then execute the following statement on the command line:
Code:
go get github.com/jwdev42/imdb2mkvtags/bin/imdb2mkvtags
You may also checkout the project's
github page, it contains a manual as html file inside the docs folder.
Please notice that the generated xml files will have unix line breaks.
