hummm... confirmed i'm still getting the message every time i launch XBMC, and i'm running EDEN.

if there a way to suppress the message? Library mode is so much better than file mode but if i can rely on auto update i cant use library mode.

ideas?

I think his has something to do with the 'Yahoo video scraper'. Because when I try to with the option 'Music video information' is gives me the exact same error message...

Keep trying. TVDB has been having server issues all this last week.

You can make easy links to the XBMC wiki using double brackets around words: [[debug log]] = debug log, [[Add-on:YouTube]] = Add-on:YouTube, [[Adding videos to the library]] = Adding videos to the library, [[userdata]] = userdata, etc

Ok thanks, I will keep trying then. But due to this error some tv shows aren't indexed yet. Will they be added to my library once TVDB is up again?
