Komet, please try "Alex Cross" and "Terraferma".
First load information with MovieDB (set to swedish) - works great. Then try load the runtime and rating and also overview only (with or without overview does not matter) with IMDB scraper. All i get is as before - nothing in plot and zero on runtime and rating.
While it tries to load the information there are 2 "progress bars". The lower one goes to 100% but the one above stays at zero percent and then it claims it is done. I tried rebooting and restarting and so on but no change. And I had it working earlier on... also teh scraping towards MovieDB takes time, you can see the progress bar building while the IMDB is superfast to 100%. it is like it does not get contact and instead just returns nothing as response and that is then applied to the fields...
Hmm.. i think i just found it when trying to share details to you. I have an anonymous service (vpn) running as standard. disabling the vpn makes the imdb scraper work it seems. The approach is the same (zero percent on upper progress bar) but i do get results. Putting the vpn/anonymous service back on somehows block the scraper..but only the imdb scraper... confusing... seems to be linked to the vpn and not your program so sorry for the issue raised. I now have a workaround. i will mess with the VPN a bit more and see if i can find a regular pattern...
