 Post subject: Reference Links in Best User Ratings point to LD for HD-DVDs

Several HD-DVD releases have made it on the Top 100 - Best User Ratings list.
The data fields shown in the list are correct, however the Reference links do not work correctly. The links use the correct internal release number, reference and title, but the wrong format, therefore the internal #HDDVD numbers are treated as the #LDDB numbers and since that determines which site is actually linked to, the links are wrong.
These links should be http://www.lddb.com/hddvd/##### instead of http://www.lddb.com/laserdisc/#####.
Examples from the current Top 25 are:
Batman Begins (2005) [80924] is linked to X-Files: 7th Season vol.2 (2000) [PILF-2837]
Blade Runner: 5-Disc Complete Collectors Edition (1982) [118573] is linked to The Christians: The Collection [VALS-3263]
Forbidden Planet: Ultimate Collector's Edition (1956) [79634] is linked to Memories (1995) [BEAL-926]
Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines (2003) [80944] is linked to Mascagni: Cavalleria Rusticana: Obraztsova/Domingo/Bruson: Pretre: Zeffirelli (1982) [070 203-1]
Transformers (2007) [13128] is linked to Britten: Turn of The Screw: Davis/Weigl [070 500-1]
Apollo 13 (1995) [824 664 6] is linked to Kramer vs. Kramer (1979) [30030]
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (1998) [31287] is linked to White Nights (1985) [30611]

I suspect that this is due to the way the list is generated and would also affect releases from other formats like VHD.
This might affect other Top 100 lists as well, but I could not find any examples.

Btw: Top 100 - Best User Ratings and Top 100 - Worst User Ratings are actually only Top 50.

Both bugs corrected:

  • Now a Top 100 list, not 50
  • Links per format are working

I think the scoring is broken, I will have to double-check my formula the scores are too high and some 0% shouldn't show up.
