I just installed XBMC Eden through the official Ubuntu repositories, listed in System Info as "XBMC 11.0 Git:Unknown (Compiled : Apr 7 2012)" on Ubuntu 12.04 Precise (x86_64). I haven't installed any additional add ons, changed the theme, or tweaked any settings beyond turning the debug logging on. The scrapper AddOns that should run when adding a new Videos source (and choosing them to run) are not running properly. The initial source addition and subsequent attempts to "Scan for New Content" (with the whole folder) or "Update Library" (with a specific file) simply results in a "Could not download information / Unable to connect to remote server. Would you like to continue scanning?" dialog. This seems to just be with the "MovieDB" scraper.

See debug log here: https://gist.github.com/2403243

The important part, from what I can see, is the following:

Code:

If I try to curl the mentioned URL, we see that the API key in use appears to be invalid:

Code:

curl http://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/movie?api_key=57983e31fb435df4df77afb854740ea9query=spaceballs+1987language=en
{"status_code":7,"status_message":"Invalid API key - You must be granted a valid key"}

I'm guessing this is ultimately an issue that could be resolved with an update to the add-on? Not sure why the API key is invalid or why that wouldn't be noticed immediately though.

Same issue here. Curl doesn't work, but loading the url in a browser does. For the time being, I installed the IMDB scraper and switched to that. I'd like to switch back to the TMDB scraper though.

Found that there is an open Trac ticket for this

Can't comment on the bug(?) but anyway: I noticed the two URLs are different, the requested one works but the line given by curl does not: no "&" characters between queries.

Code:

Ahhh, good catch! I just noticed that another scraper (AniDB.net) seemed to be doing the same thing, where it was lacking the proper "&" characters to separate the parameters.

Olympia just released v3.2 of the TMDB scarper and the issue is fixed for me now.
