#163 Yahoo movie info problems?

[Larry W. Virden]

This morning, I have seen two seperate but perhaps
related errors.
First time I ran the desktop application to scape the
yahoo data, I got an error that some of the day URLs
returned no data.

Once I saw that error I attempted to rerun the application.
This time, the parser just sat at the attempt to parse
my first day's url for 30 minutes.

I noticed things were not right this morning but have not yet
had time to investigate it further. I'll try and take look later
today or tomorrow.

I don't know if it is related or not but now I am only get plots
for some movies. For other it says: IMDB name and title
search for "title".

I too am having the same problem. It seems Yahoo likes to
change things every couple of months to keep us from using
its database.
I LOVE Showtimes and have really gotten dependent on it.
I hope someone will rewrite the files needed to access it.
