Maintenance Hell!
🕑 Added 2019-09-07 05:46:04 +0000 UTCFor the past few months I've been stuck in maintenance hell!
- Some of the services I used for gathering metadata shut down.
- The logic I created to "automate" the Poster API only worked for popular films (shown in the image above) and I'm manually adding the missing posters everyday.
- The email service I use for sending out keys is switching to a more expensive plan of which I'm currently reevaluating other options (MailGun, MailJet etc.)
- And most recently there was a major outage that my load balancing/automatic failover failed to handle.
I'm working my way through bugs right now and then I can move forward with new development (Full Cast, Actor/Director/Writer Search, AKA Titles etc.)
Please bear with me and thanks for the continued support!

Are the service down ?

One question / suggestion. Instead of trying to use a special service to find posters, why don't you just copy the poster URL from the IMDb object information? That's what I've been doing to get posters!

We appreciate you, Brian, thanks for putting in the effort!

Hey brian do you have an availability page or summary to see how frequently they are failing?
Brian Fritz
Thanks for the suggestion, I will definitely check them out!

I was also forced to move from Sparkpost, although I still think they are the best. I moved to Pepipost, they are quite okay but with low prices. Check them out if you want (aff link) https://app.pepipost.com/index.php/signup/registeruser?fp_ref=valentin90 If you need more info about them I can provide, I do send quite a lot of emails.
