OK, I think I'll get it right this time... but my main question is if there has been any change made to the IMDB-scraper over the summer?
Running XBMC pre-9.10 r22290 installed from the SVN repositories on ubuntu 9.04 minimal (2.6.28-15-generic) (i686).
Ran "aptitude update" earlier today...
Things I did to produce the log:
*started the machine
*navigated to my movies
*brought up info for robocop (already scanned to wrong IMDB info)
*hit the refresh button for robocop
This is where I stopped. I got a list with 3 movies to choose from, none was robocop... This would have worked with my earlier SVN install from the beginning of this summer.

I guess this is the important part:
Code:

especially this url:
http://akas.imdb.com/find?s=tt;q=robocop%201988
Has the scraper always used both title and year for the search? I think that is whats messing it all up... Since I'm positive I have managed to scrape gomorra to my library before, and now it scrapes like this:
http://akas.imdb.com/find?s=tt;q=gomorra%202008 which is bad,
http://akas.imdb.com/find?s=tt;q=gomorra on the other hand results in correct answers.
