that one we simply cannot handle, no way to distinguish it from a movie having sample in its name. granted, the one we have can also arse up but atleast its somewhat "secure"

Hi. I wonder if there is anybody here that can help me with this scraper problem. Sorry for my poor english. xmbc refuses to get info about my movies from imdb.
Google translate from my other thread on a swedish forum(http://www.minhembio.com/forum/index.php...&p=2114916 and http://www.minhembio.com/forum/index.php...&p=2115106 )

Translation:
I just installed XMBC and may not scrapers function to retrieve information from the IMDB on my films. Having followed the following guides, I have still not received it work (I have Atlantis 8.10 Beta 2):
http://www.xbmc.nu/index.php?option...0&Itemid=40
http://www.xbmc.nu/index.php?option...3&Itemid=40

I right-click and select "Set" content, I choose the movies in the folder and it will download info from IMDB. "Run automated scan" and "Use folder names for lookups" and "Scan recursively" is selected and "Folder contains a single Video" is NOT selected. Then when I press the OK button to happen is nothing.

I have found and brought to my files in XBMC and can watch them in there but it feels pretty pointless when I installed it because it would automatically download info about my films. Would be grateful if anyone had any idea. Is it necessary to open sometime in the port router? I checked so that it is not blocked in the windows firewall. NOD32 do I use as virus programs.

Or is it someone who has a good tip on a smooth program? the only feature I'm looking for is to update my movies to the Internet (IMDB) so that you can categorize them by genre, year, etc.

Sorry for the bad translation by google...

What is your folder structure like and where exactly do you set content?

Do you set content on "test filmer" and thereunder are all the movies in a separate folder?
(In that case you should not use "Scan recursively")

Also please psatebin a debug log from a scan

If you look here you will get a good look of my folder structure:
http://www.minhembio.com/forum/index.php...&p=2115381

I set the content by right clocking on the "test filmer" folder and there click Set content.

What does the "Stack" button do?

I've tested with and without "Scan recursively" and no progress.

Your problem is due to you having non-ascii characters in your windows profile name. This should have been fixed in Beta 2 which you have, so I'm not sure why it's not working. Can you check whether there are any .db files under the directory:

C:\Documents and Settings\HP_Ägaren\Application Data\XBMC\userdata\database

If there is, try deleting them and rerunning XBMC.

Please add some comments to this ticket:

I didn't even find the folder database in this search path C:\Documents and Settings\HP_Ägaren\Application Data\XBMC\userdata . In the usardata folder i hava a playlist folder and six files whith the names favourites,guisettings,LCD,profiles,RssFeeds and sources.

I tried to change my windows profile name to arowe17 but the search path to the folder was the same even after a restart, like: C:\Documents and Settings\HP_Ägaren\Applic....

I've solved the problem now. If I try to start it from Start/All Programs/XBMC Media Center it won't work. BUT!! C:\Program\XBMC it works great!! I don't know why this is a problem.. But there is one new problem now. C:\Program\XBMC it's only able to start in window mode and not full screen, can that be fixed?

Edit: found the fullscreen add ( -fs) but what does the -p do in the start file? ( C:\Program\XBMC\XBMC.exe -fs -p )

That's because you need to nuke your database file (or rename it if you want to keep it as a backup).
It's under either of these:
c:\Documents and Settings\yourusername\Application Data\XBMC\UserData\Database\MyVideos34.db
or
c:\Program Files\XBMC\UserData\Database\MyVideos34.db

Edit: this applies to your previous issue.
