Technical Details

Dependencies

• Greasemonkey/Tampermonkey: Required to run the script in your browser.
• GM_xmlhttpRequest: Used to make cross-origin requests to fetch TMDb data.

Main Components

1. IMDb ID extraction: The script extracts the IMDb ID from the URL to determine the video source.
2. TMDb API Query: For TV series, the script queries TMDb to get the corresponding series ID using the IMDb ID.
3. Iframe Embedding: A video player iframe from vidsrc is embedded based on the IMDb or TMDb ID.

Error Handling

• If the target DOM element is missing, the script logs an error without breaking the page.
