That's really odd considering they list advanced launcher in the "featured" section on their site. I wonder why they blocked us?
So they really block XBMC. Instead of downloading any image you download a HTML file containing :
Code:
The owner of this website (thegamesdb.net) has banned your access based on your browser's signature (ac03af06aa30098-ua48).
More odd considering that it is thegamedb devellopers who beg me to add a scraper into Advanced Launcher for their database. I think they actually have bandwidth cost problem, and so try to limit it's use.
