Episode and season images

Open TriPSs opened this issue 7 years ago • 3 comments

Hi, is it possible to also return images for episodes and seasons? The Movie DB has a poster for each season and video stills for episodes.

If not, is it then possible to add the id of The Movie DB to the API response? Trakt does return this.

I will have to look deeper into this issue, but for now this is what I think:

Depends on what The Movie DB gives us. If they allow for us to fetch the images in bulk, meaning getting multiple season or episode images in one request then it's probably possible. But if a request has to be send for each season or episode then I would say no.

I can add the id of The Movie DB to the object returned by the routes, but I will do this in the WIP 3.0.0 branch. There still has to be done a lot on that branch before it goes to production, so if you want the new id to be online you can make a PR with the changes.

@ChrisAlderson Thanks for the explanation!

With The Movie DB you indeed have to make a call for each season to get the video stills of the episodes and the season poster.

Hey there I am just wondering why the collection of the movies or TV shows in popcorn time difference by platform?? For example TV show (Handmaids Tale) season 2 Available on android by not available on api ?

Thanks
