Where to place Kodi scrapers - Kakkmaddafaktus - 2016-08-12

I've been trying to figure out where to place the Kodi scrapers in order to be able to use them in TMM. TMM doesn't see my Kodi install for some reason, so I figured I should give the other alternative a try and place the xml files in the kodi_scraper folder, but haven't been able to figure out where to place said folder in order for it to work.

Any help is appreciated Smile

Placing Kodi scrapers into TMM directly is highly disencouraged.
You won't get scraper updates, and you need to find all dependent plugins of your own...
And always take the correct version if same plugin...

Could you please try the following version?
Download this JAR, rename it, and place in inside the /plugins/ folder, overwriting the existing scraper-kodi.jar
TEST: scraper-kodi.jar

Thanks for the reply. The file you uploaded seems to work. It imported some scrapers into TMM, but unfortunately not the subtitle scrapers. I'll add some more scrapers to Kodi and see if I find some that will work. Smile

Great - will add to next version Smile

Yes, standalone subtitle scrapers are currently not possible Sad
They do not have such nice XML scraper workflow (which we could parse and execute);
they seem to be solely written in Python....

Ah. That explains it. Smile
