Firstly, thanks for making a pretty comprehensive piece of software! I'm new to Media Companion, so this may be a stupid question. At the moment I'm trying to scrape some of my TV shows, but I'm having problems with the TV Show Selector tab.
It always finds the show that I want on the left hand side, but when I click "Scrape Show With Selected Options" for some of my shows an error pops up saying "Error Scraping Show" (though the window that says "The Selected TV Show is being Scraped. Please Wait" doesn't close.
It seems to me that it works for shows that haven't stopped airing (Mad Med, Weeds, Entourage, Curb Your Enthusiasm, South Park...)
But it fails on shows which have finished (Arrested Development, The Office (UK), ...)
The options I'm using are as follows:
episode.nfo actor source: TVDB
Sort Order: Default
season-all.tbn: Poster
tvshow.nfo actor source: TVDB
Art style: Poster
Download Poster/Banner: checked
Art style: Poster
Download Fanart: checked
Check this if you want to overwrite existing image files: not checked
Attempt to dl posters in selected language: not checked
Has anyone else experienced this? And has anyone found a way to stop this error?
I have just tested The Office (UK) and its working fine now.
TVDB are still rebuilding the API DB, and is a bit hit and miss at the moment. Many episodes are also missing from the API.
Just be patient, I dare say they will be back to normal in a day or two.
