How do you change the scraper for one show?
I want to change to the "tvrage.com" for American Dad, since their numbers match the scene...
Any way to do this?

in File view (Videos -> Files) navigate to the American Dad folder and bring up the contextual menu to "set content" on it. Even if the parent folder has a different scraper, a sub folder with an individual setting will override for that specific folder. Make sure to click on where it says "folder contains a single TV show".

Thanks Ned, thats it.
However, there is no other english option besides ThTVDB listed. Can I get one for TVRage?

Have you installed any additional TV scrapers from the Add-ons manager? Settings -> Add-ons -> Get add-ons -> XBMC.org -> TV information

Hey guys, I have the exact same question but for Movies rather than TV shows.
There are just 2 or 3 titles that I'd like to use alternate scrapers for. I've been using the Universal Scraper for all the films in my library, but some have no fanart/awful posters. I'd like to use the Movie Database scraper for these individual titles, but if I go to Video -> Files as stated above, I can see my movies separated by genre (which is how I set them up originally). I only want to scrape for one movie, not all the films in one folder (which I assume will just change them all).
Is there a way to do this?
Thank you!!!

This is why I use an external scrapper (MedialElch is my favorite), as it allows you to choose which database to use (TheTVDB, or TVRage, etc), and select where you want the Artwork to come from (Fanart.tv, IMDB, Movieposter.db, etc). Plus with MediaElch, you can also download all the TV Theme Songs (for use with the TVTunes plugin for Kodi), and the newest feature is Music scraping (So Artists, Albums, Fanart, Disc Art, etc).

Or download the individual art files and simply change them (Movie Information -> Choose Art -> <select type> -> Browse...)
