Musicbrainz scraper works if I individually go to each album and refresh, it will pull the info/coverar etct for that album. But when i run a full scan for an entire artist, universal scraper gets the artist info perfectly, but when it comes to the albums musicbrainz scraper doesn't scrap any info

Is there a way to disable/get rid of these scrapers altogether? I'm sick of warning messages about them after boot that offer to disable them only to reappear every time I turn on my HTPC.

Once you disabled them they should not re-appear asking again.
You can remove them from the userdata folder

Thanks for your reply

Disabling right after startup via the pop up dialog wasn't working for me; allmusic, yahoo music videos and some other movies scraper warnings kept popping up every single time for a few weeks so I used to skip them but was somewhat annoying.

After reading some of this thread I ended up removing them altogether from the /usr/share/xbmc/addons/ folder to be done with it, I don't care for them anyway.
