I've read through the documents in the Wiki about how to create a scrapper. Good stuff..

However, I'm trying something completely different. My movie info it stored in a MySQL database already (created from the proprietary Movie Collectorz database).

So, I'd like a scrapper that can read from the MySQL database, and save the info into the SqLite, or using the new central database, save to another MySQL database.

I currently have a standalone python script that can mostly do this (I'm working on some issues with TV shows right now). It works, but has to be run manually. What I'd really like to to have this as a scrapper. Can this be done?

I know that I can do it as a script that runs when XBMC starts, but I think a scrapper would be the better way to go.

Any ideas?
Thanks!
Brian

Nope, a scraper (note the one p) cannot do this by and of itself. If you had an http interface to query that returned some sort of text then it probably could.
