Re: TMDB scraper doesn`t work
Thanks Buzz, appears to be a problem with the API key?
Code: Select all
GET /3/search/movie?api_key=f7f51775877e0bb6703520952b3c7840&query=crazy%20%20stupid%20%20love&year=2011&language= HTTP/1.1
Code: Select all
{"status_code":7,"status_message":"Invalid API key: You must be granted a valid key.","success":false}

Re: TMDB scraper doesn`t work

Re: TMDB scraper doesn`t work
Definitely a problem with the API key (suspended):
Using Kodi's API key (6889f6089877fd092454d00edb44a84d, from here) and replacing it in Q:/system/scrapers/video/tmdb.xml and common/tmdb.xml definitely sorts out that part of the problem.
I think it still has a problem parsing the results though - I can see them coming through Fiddler, but with empty results in Q:\xbmc.log. I can't figure it right now, I could never get my head around the parsing expressions in scraper XMLs, I'll give it another shot tomorrow morning or maybe you Buzz will fix it out first.
Code: Select all
http://api.tmdb.org/3/movie/2?api_key=f7f51775877e0bb6703520952b3c7840
{"status_code":10,"status_message":"Suspended API key: Access to your account has been suspended, contact TMDb."}

Re: TMDB scraper doesn`t work
Issue #359 created.
https://redmine.exotica.org.uk/issues/359
@Gandalph / @RextheC
Could you both try the files in archive attached in the ticket (tmdb fix.zip) and let us know how it works for you, thanks.
Place the contained files into your "Q:\system\scrapers\movie\" and "common" subolder respectively.

Re: TMDB scraper doesn`t work
A user (Chaussy Fabien) reported on Facebook scrapper not working again, but changing the key again to the Rapserry Kodi key fixed it again (ecbc86c92da237cb9faff6d3ddc4be6d). Will try it again later and create a ticket for it.

Re: TMDB scraper doesn`t work
Hey Dudes,
well, existing problem with the tmdb scraper can be confirmed my me.
And- thats much better- solution can also be confirmed
Changing the key helps you making the scraper work again. As the key would have to be replaced in 18 lines I scripted the change and uploaded a "new" tmdb.xml for you all.
It can be found at: tmdb.xml
Please make mirror(s) if needed.

Re: TMDB scraper doesn`t work
Hi All, after all my years of using XBMC4XBOX, I have never really used the Library mode because I didn't have the internet set up to do it. But now I do. I can't seem to get the my movie thumbnails to download. I get the info just fine. TV shows thumbnails work but of course that's a different scraper.
I have the the content provider for movies set to TMDB and I placed the xmls as decribed. Did I not set something up right?
Some debug info, it only shows a section pertaining to one movie.
I did notice that the API key shown in the log does not match the key that's in the file, but I do not know if that's it or not or how that key got there.
https://pastebin.com/ms2JRQnB
Eidt: I ftp'd over a fresh install of XBMC with the new xmls and started over. The posters popped up this fine. Problem solved.

Re: TMDB scraper doesn`t work
@Eel_dahc
I can't see the key in your log excerpt, but if it's not the same it might mean you haven't restarted XBMC4Xbox after updating the TMDb XML files.
cURL error 22 tells us the HTTP call return a server error (4xx or 5xx), you should be able to reproduce it by taking the URL from the log and putting it in your browser. I'm not sure why it contains "...", I thought it should have been entirely as is in the log, unless you've trimmed them down yourself. Anyway, let us know how it goes.
