I think settings for omdbapi should be a global setting since you can scrape movies and tvshows

Quote:Specifically, the use of OMDBApi to retrieve the Rotten Tomato Audience and Critic ratings.Enjoy!
To enable Rotten Tomato retrieval, users of Media Companion will need to obtain their own OMDbAPI Key. Why you ask. Well, OMDBApi key has limitation if you have the free key (1000 api calls daily), else users can pay for more api calls depending on their requirements. See http://www.omdbapi.com/apikey.aspx for more details (follow **Become a Patron** for extra options)
Also, much more work has been completed on fanart.tv artwork, naming of this artwork, and retrieval of images for Movies and also Movie Collections.
I have added a field that users can add their own client Key from Fanart.TV. Again, why? you ask?? Fanart.TV has a Project key (already installed in Media Companion), and allows for Client keys (or user keys). If both are used, then Fanart.Tv offers earlier access to newer images. This is best explained on their blog at https://fanart.tv/2015/01/personal-api-keys/
Collection artwork has had an overhaul, with options to save to a Central Folder, Central Folder with Collection sub-folder, and also naming as <moviesetname>-arttype.
Collection artwork present is now shown in the ExtraArtwork listbox.....as well as the presence of Animated poster or Animated fanart images.
Animated Poster or Fanart needs to be named as <moviename>-animatedposter.gif etc, or <moviesetname>-animatedfanart.gif for Media Companion to identify they are present.
At this time, there is no scraper for Animated artwork, but this is being worked. See the Kodi forum thread for more details. https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=215727
So, as usual with this amount of changes, there is the chance of bugs. Please, post up ASAP if you find any with instructions on how to duplicate.

Found and Fixed.
Just uploaded a replacement release, same version number. Please re-download the file. TVDb ratings for Episodes should now be fixed.

tvshows episodes ratings:
edit: tvdb scraped fine - very fast
imdb scraped fine - very slow
movie db - crashed
rotten tomatoes scraped fine - very fast
nfo - imdb votes are show votes not episode votes
If I rescrape one tvshow using the wizard, tvdb and imdb appear as default on the episode nfo's
If I rescrape one episode, tvdb, imdb, tmdb; ratings and votes are correct

Is there an easy way to export the entire DB to excel?
