The moviegrabber plugin allows Obsidian users to generate detailed notes for movies and TV series by fetching data from the Open Movie Database (OMDb) API and optionally embedding YouTube trailers. Users can define custom templates with dynamic tags for metadata such as title, director, and genre, making it compatible with tools like Dataview. The plugin supports advanced transformations like regex and string functions for flexible formatting and enables local saving of poster images. Additionally, users can create visually appealing, interactive displays for their media collections by integrating with custom CSS and Dataview queries.
The Trakt for Obsidian plugin is perfect for movie and TV enthusiasts who want to keep a detailed log of their watch history directly in Obsidian. By syncing your Trakt account, the plugin automatically generates a file, `Trakt Rating History.md`, which organizes your check-ins with date-specific backlinks. Whether you’re tracking ratings or simply noting when you watched an episode or movie, it provides an efficient way to integrate entertainment logs into your note-taking workflow. For fans of structured journaling or media analysis, this plugin makes it easy to link viewing habits with other notes in your vault.
