Download the .zip file from github.com (you can find the link in Eisbahn's signature) and install it like a normal addon (System --> Add-ons --> install from zip file/Aus ZIP Datei installieren).

Hi,
ive tried it that way but it didnt work
do i need any other addons first in order to install a addon from zip?
i have downloaded the dharma addon file and in xbmc i then choosed install from zip -> locate the zip file and confirm
but after that addon is still not installed

Take a look at ~/.xbmc/addons/ is there a folder called metadata.imdb.de ? If not extract the zip file by hand.

hmm scraper doesnt work for me

it always crashes xbmc when adding a new source directory and looking up film informations for Dorm Daze 2 (2006) ... dont know why --> http://www.imdb.de/title/tt0458438/
all movies up to this are working fine but when retrieving informations for dorm daze 2 it crashes
maybe it doesnt like the film Smile

normal imdb scraper is working fine

Hi, i tested the Scraper, but now my movies are not alphabetic sorted.

I think many Movies show " as first Letter.
