This plugin is a simple plugin that allows you to crawl movie data from omdb and Youtube trailers. The newly added page is opened for you to add your notes or rating if required.

Usage

  1. You need to get an API key from omdb and set it in the plugin settings.
  2. (optional) You need to get an API key from Youtube and set it in the plugin settings. This is required to get the trailers. If you don't set it, you will not be able to get the trailers. If you can't get the API key from Youtube, you can visit here to get more information.
  3. Check the settings have the proper folders set up.
  4. That's it! You can use the command palette to search for movies. You can also use the hotkey Ctrl+Alt+M or you can click the movie icon in the ribbon.

  1. You can search by Title
  2. Optionally, you can search by IMDB title ID, eg. tt13444014
