Happy new year everybody
hi Totosh,
I think you dont need this 2 line if you keep S00Exx in your filename :
<regexp defaultseason="0">specials[\\/].*</regexp>
<regexp defaultseason="0">[Ss]00[Ee][Pp].*</regexp>
Anycase, i think this 2 line are wrong cause there is no matching group in your regexp (something like " [Ee]([0-9]+) ")

i keep getting the tv show information, you are banned.
I've waited a few days for this to be cleared up and it doesn't disappear, I've since switched back to the original version of the anidb scraper and it's working fine.
Would this be anything I can fix on my end?

You are getting repeat-banned (and possibly increasing your ban duration) by attempting more lookups during the period that you are banned.
I've been fighting with this issue which I think is largely a two-fold issue: Firstly, there is no period between the initial lookup and the attempt to fetch episode information, and secondly, delay is added via a regular expression which to me seems like a delay that can vary greatly depending on hardware (in my case, a NUC with an i5 1.8GHz that turbo-boosts to 2.4GHz, 8GB DDR3-1600 MHz memory and a Intel 535 30GB SSD).
Unfortunately I dont know enough about writing add-ons for Kodi to try and fix this myself (by adding a more reliable method of delay and adding it in between every different lookup).
Additionally, the problem with using Google to look up information is that there are some series (like A-Channel +Smile) which it will not look up under any circumstances, perhaps because its stripping certain characters?), if you do.
Turns out, if you use Google, you now risk getting your client temporarily(?) banned by Google.

why would it be working with the original anidb addon if i am being banned by anidb?, I have confirmed that I am connecting and getting information from anidb by watching the connection

Well, the "banned" message has to be coming from somewhere. Pretty sure it's not coming from the plugin itself. If it's not coming from Anidb, then it seems like it must be coming from Google, like debdrup mentioned.

The banned message is printed when the api returns <error>banned</error> because the series lookup and episode information lookup comes too quickly.
Changing series lookup to use Google instead fixes this, but risks getting you banned temporarily by Google.

I'm not sure this might be a kodi problem, but now everything but my anime show up in the tv shows listings and smart playlists (files stills accessible through searching through video -> files).

Well at least I know it's not something I did(just got a fresh Samsung evo ssd so had to reinstall windows) any suggestions, or better yet is this compatible with kodi maybe that's the problem..?

I've tried to lookup "Assassination Classroom" with the scraper but I get no results on it.
On AniDB "Assassination Classroom" is not set as an official title but as "Synonym". Is there a possibility to tell the scraper to search main title, official title and synonyms?
