I added today the first episode of the second season of Big Bang Theory, but it didn't get the season poster, which is obviously there in the TVDB.
Regardless of that, I removed the whole Big Bang Theory serie and readded it. It scraped everything, except the season poster Sad
I've the current SVN Build.

The same with Smallville and How I met your Mother. This has always worked. Just recently stopped working.

I have got a similar problem with my scraper on my ASRock ion with full ubuntu. It does not update any of the following shows (Dexter & Californication: no poster, thumbs etc). On my macbook, xbmc does it like it should. Both systems are on the same svn 24207. What could be wrong?

Seems like the "grumpy" in your title is really not just for show Wink

Of course you're right, so here is the log (I can't find anything about season thumbs in there ...): http://pastebin.com/m66ecd72
To get this log, I removed the serie Big Bang Theory completly and made again a scan on the source to get it all back.

Maybe this information is also useful:
The folder tree is like this:
- The Big Bang Theory
--- Season 1
----- Episode 1
--- Season 2
----- Episode 1
--- fanart.jpg
--- folder.jpg
--- poster.jpg

As you can see, I have fanart, folder & poster for the serie itself as files. But NOT for the seasons or single episodes. Maybe he doesn't look for it, cos I have these?!? But this has worked before. So this would be a new behaviour.

Regards,
Steffen

thanks Wink

the problem is actually on the backend side. when you request info in some lang, only the season thumbs registered with that lang is returned to us. and none is listed in german it seems

Fun thing is: I just changed the language at my second "remove-all-and-add-again" test. Also my series Smallville and How I met your mother are lang=en and didn't work. So this can't be the reason Sad

I have the exact same problem. I have version XBMC_for_Windows-9.04.1-repack2 though. It's only tv-shows that seems to be the problem. It's trying to download but just ends up with a blanc "Remote thumb". I have in the past made the 'fix' and it used to work flawlessly.

My humble apology: it seems my test-cases were wrong. I scraped again The Big Bang Theory with language en and now it worked. I also removed How I met your Mother completely and readded it and the season thumb also appeared. So either the service itself fixed a bug between my test-cases or I thought I tested Big Bang Theory with lang=en after the SVN update, but in fact I tested it before. Dunno.

Fact is: everything works now! Smile
