text descriptions of movies-difference
Verfasst von jlj1950228STAFFMOD am 16. April 2024 um 15:44
I have two programs, aq Windows app and a powershell script, both of which retrieve TMDB data. The biggest difference is the script returns an 'Overview', which is longer than those below. The app returns 'Description', Summary', and 'Synopsis', which are usually the same, but not always. Plex media server ( or Jellyfin?) includes 'Tagline.'
My questions: Are any of these valid TMDB tags? Which tags/attributes involve textual descriptions of a movie?

On TMDB, we have the 2 fields "Overview" and "Taglines". We don't have fields called "Description", "Summary" and "Synopsys".
On the other side, IMDB have "Plot" (which may correspond to your "Description"), "Summary" qnd "Synopsys". So, it seems that your application use IMDB for these data.
