scraping with themoviedb.org and logging
#1
Hello,..

I am trying set content for my movie folder with themoviedb.org as the scrapper. When I do so, it checks for updates very quickly and then doesn't actually gather any information. If I change the scrapper to IMDB, it works fine. (this is with xbmc 9.11/windows)

I would prefer to use themoviedb.org as it has superior thumbs, and the fan art abilities.

debug .log file here.. http://pastebin.ca/1766139


Thank you.

Steve.

Run one scan at a time when making a debug log so the thing is less a PITA to read. Looks like the only thing in your video DB is TV shows which aren't named correctly. So yes, should scan pretty quick and add nothing.

Perhaps you'd like to try again with more specific details as to what EXACTLY you're doing?

thank you for responding,.. I will try to make this more concise as to the issues I'm having.

I am trying to add a directory of movies I have to xbmc. The process I go through is to start xbmc, and then navigate to the videos folder. I choose to add a source, in this case "users/media/videos/movies", and then set the content to MOVIE, with themoviedb.org as it's information source.

Once selected, it processes for a minute gathering information, and then finishes. I then select the newly added entry "movies", and when I am presented with the content list/showcase/wall, the movies are there with default icons, and no information. If I select a movie, (say blade runner for example), and hit "i", a keyboard pops up asking me for the movie name. if I type it in again, the keyboard pops up and asks me for the name again (in an endless cycle until I abort).

However, if I do the exact same process with a different source (ie: IMdb), the movies come in with coverart, movie information, and if I select "i" on any movie it gives me a list of movies to pick from to get the correct version.


I would prefer to use themoviedb.org as it has superior thumnails, and can pull in fanart.

I have created a new debug log that (hopefully) removes the extra information that was cluttering the previous debug log to help see if anyone can help me. I am not beyond doing something wrong here, but I have read and tried to be doing the correct things. The fact that IMdb (or amazon etc) works, but themoviedb.org doesn't, is what confuses me.

the error lines that are persistently coming up when it checks each movie entry is ...

So I hope that is more useful information.

I am running
-windows 7-64bit on an ASRock 330 ion.
-intel atom 330 cpu
-4gb ram
-xbmc 9.11 r26017 (Compiled Dec 23/2009)

Thank you for any help.

Steve.

Error is pretty obvious in the posted debug log. You somehow managed to activate the http proxy settings. See Line 255 (Using proxy http://:8080) and others. Disable it and all should scrape fine. The fact that other scrapers, or any other internet service is working fine is doubtful tbh Wink
