Plot is not retreived (IMDB)

[tellapu]

With the installation guidelines from Germán https://bugs.launchpad.net/griffith/+bug/1776064) I could install Griffith again, wonderful! And with the PluginMovieIMDB.py changes mentioned in other bug reports, I get most of the information but not the plot. Unfortunately previous bug reports don't help:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/griffith/+bug/224546
https://bugs.launchpad.net/griffith/+bug/1240477
Maybe there is still somebody knowledgeable to help to tweak PluginMovieIMDB.py to retrieve the plot, too.
Thanks.

Hopefully somebody can still help with this! Griffith works fine others (apart from the Poster-retrieving-problem: https://bugs.launchpad.net/griffith/+bug/1903538)

Hallo Michael!
Thanks a lot for updating the PluginMovieIMDB.py! It works fine again (plot and poster!)
Griffith is still alive! I have thought I might need to find a new tool although I have been happy with Griffith for more than a decade.

In case somebody else reads this and wants a bit more instructions. This is what I did (after closing Griffith):
1. sudo mv /usr/share/griffith/lib/plugins/movie/PluginMovieIMDB.py /usr/share/griffith/lib/plugins/movie/PluginMovieIMDB.py.backup (to make a copy of the plugin-file, just to be sure).
2. sudo gedit /usr/share/griffith/lib/plugins/movie/PluginMovieIMDB.py and copied into this text file the code from https://github.com/micjahn/Griffith/blob/master/lib/plugins/movie/PluginMovieIMDB.py, then save and close gedit.

Restart Griffith.

Danke nochmals herzlich, Michael!
