Ok, but I need to obtain your scraper settings xml file some way, otherwise I am wasting my time testing this. Up to you how you get it to me. Screenshot of every setting page, or type the settings in your post manually or spend a bit of time in the rPi finding the file.

I'll leave it up to you how is easiest for you.

Also what is your comment on IMDB being English only? Do you think that is the reason you only get English information?

I'll give you screenshots asap.

I don't understand your question about IMDB!

The Universal Movie Scraper uses IMDB by default for metadata. IMDB is an English only site. So if you are expecting Italian language from an English site... well that won't happen.

It is one of the reasons I need your settings.xml file, so I can see where the information is coming from.

Yea but if I excluded IMDB from every setting and choose TheMovieDB, with it setting, it should works fine..

For example, in another Kodi (here on my phone) I tried to use The Movie DB scraper (default) and all is in italian.

Anyway Karellen, really thank you for your help, as soon as I can I will send you screenshots Smile

You are just predifining default scraper settings in the addons manager. These will only be applied when you add new sources. Subsequently whatever you set here, will not affect already existing media sources.

So my post from the topic you linked is valid for your case. Ammend scraper settings on the existing media source.

True, but if I delete all the library and repeat the process from the beginning, all sources should be new for UMS, correct? But also in that case, all is in English!

No, unless you remove and re-add the source.

But why don't you just adjust the scraper settings on the source (via the context menu)?

You don't have to remove anything.

I totally remove and re-add the source, located on a SMB protocol (if could be an important information)

Please post a screenshot from the scraper settings on the source

This is the thing I haven't clear...where is the scraper configuration on the source?

Go to Videos>Files
Highlight your Source
Call up the Context Menu
Select Change Content
Then select Settings

Oh, ok.
No, also in the source panel the scraper is set properly.

In this case I need a debug log, when you try scraping.


RE: Universal Movie Scraper - guyonphone - 2020-01-03

Noob Question here:

I scanned in all my Artwork with Universal Media Scrapper before I realized I needed to create an Advancedsettings.xml file and whitelist the extrafanart. I want to use Aeon Silvo: Logo View for my movies, but I can't seem to get the Universal Media Scrapper to scan clearlogos, or any extra fanart. My Advancedsettings.xml is an exact copy paste of the example provided in this forum, and i did put it in %Appdata%/Kodi/userdata.

How do I tell Universal Media Scrapper to grab the extrafanart for movies it thinks it's already scanned?

Thanks
