FSK anzeige anstatt MPAA
« on: April 13, 2025, 12:14:47 am »

Hallo Leute,

ist es möglich sich die FSK Alterseinstufung anzeigen zu lassen, anstatt die amerikanische MPAA??
Wenn ja, wie stelle ich das bei einer bereits vorhandenen Bibliothek um?

This would require fetching the FSK rating using the fsk.de API, which apparently is not free:
https://www.fsk.de/blog/portfolio-items/fsk-api-freigaben/

After having access to their API, a script or tool would need to be created to automatically fetch the ratings for each title in your collection and update MC with it (it's unlikely that MC itself would ever incorporate this feature due to cost). This script could be a one-liner or a more involved tool, depending on their API.

Well, the API is actually open and returns the FSK classification, german title and description, along with a bunch of other info. Sample return for "All Quiet on The Western Front" (Im Westen nichts Neues) is attached - it contains 9 titles/variants.

The IMDB field is empty for all titles I tried, so you have to search by Title which usually returns multiple matches - eg, for "Snow White" it returns 19 titles, so the tool/script would need to match the year and release type to select one of them. The API also seems to be quite slow, taking about 4 seconds per query - this makes querying for lots of titles a very slow process.

I can share the API URL by PM if anyone is interested - I'm not yet sure this is supposed to be open access as they don't document it anywhere.

Wenn die FSK-Einstufung mit der deutschen Inhaltsbewertung von tmdb übereinstimmt, habe ich MCUtils testweise modifiziert, um alle Zertifizierungen für die Filmveröffentlichung zu erhalten. Für Fernsehsendungen ist das bereits der Fall.

Just an update on the FSK API pricing:

Access to movies database:    850€ activation + 250€ / month
Access to movies+series database:    3500€ activation + 850€ / month

 :o

Meanwhile their API is wide open if you find out the URL, no key or authentication required... should I tell them?  ::)
