Ok. From what I can see in the log, it is not a scraping issue. The scraper is downloading all the metadata. Is it ending up in the database? I don't see why not, but I can only be 100% sure if this is the case if you send me your database and I can check for any corruption.
The only other possibility I can think of is some corruption in your install. If you go to C:\Users\Skeltom\AppData\Roaming\ and look for the Kodi folder. Rename it to Koditemp or similar. Now restart Kodi and let Kodi recreate the folder. Now set up your source and scraper again and scrape the tv show. Is it working?
I'll let you decide which one of the above two options you start with.

I renamed the folder in appdata and re-scanned the tv folder and it worked this time, not sure what happened before.
Thanks for your help again

hello
i am having problem with scraping a tv shows/drama titled "Lie to Me" which was aired in 2011.
i have named my folder "Lie to Me (2011)" and TMDB tv scraper scanned and loaded "Lie to Me (2009)". i even created a parsing nfo and add exact url to the correct tv show/drama but still the scraper returns to the 2009 ones. i am puzzled and could not understand what is happening.
is there a problem with TMDB tv scraper? the version i am using is 3.4.0 (kodi 18.5).
any assistance is greatly appreciated.

is there a way that i could point which release year since title of the tv show is the same?
this puzzles me since i have included in the nfo the correct url to parse the specific tv show.

Hi,
I recently switched from using a local/default library to a mariadb shared library. I exported & imported my library as a single file during the process. That seemed to go fine with the exception of Game of Thrones and The Walking Dead. I tried to scrape them in but get the same results in both cases - the title is empty, showing empty list items when I look at the tv show list. No metadata of any kind is scraped, and the directory shown when you check the submenu "Information" is actually the parent of the tv show dir. I do have a log file saved from a failed scrape of GoT and I see stuff in it about not having the episode guide to look up episodes. BUT, out of curiosity I switched back to my local library, removed GoT, and rescraped it no problem. I would think that rules out the scraper as the problem, and instead points towards mariadb somehow, right?
