All the images in thetvdb.com tv show scraper doen't work (I have XBMC 8.10 on Mac OS X).
If I edit the scraper and replace all "images.thetvdb.com" URLs with "thetvdb.com" it works again.
Is this a know bug or is it something I do wrong?

Thanks!

As a note for anyone else who was confused (like I was originally)- for existing shows you have to refresh the TV Show information before you can try and get remote thumbs again.

I did a find/replace (I think 15 total) and the scraper worked once again.

Help me out here, where did you do your find/replace. I cant find a path to anything labeled as tvdb

after much searching, I found it: /usr/share/xbmc/system/scrapers/video/tvdb.xml

Yes, but I would recommend you upgrade XBMC.
