TheTVDB lookups broken?
« on: March 09, 2013, 04:01:15 am »

As of last night, all 3 of my MC18 installs are failing to look up data from theTVDB.

Get Movie and TV Info returns a result e.g. "TheTVDB: The Following" from theTVDB for that TV Show, but always reports "No information available for the selected resource" in information for any TV show I try.
So it obviously fails to download episode data.
This applies to files that have already been successfully scraped too, not just new content.

The same for Getting Cover Art from the internet, it seems unable to scrape TVDB successfully full stop at the minute.

I've verified theTVDB is up and running, and validated a few series ids for previously scraped content.
All seems fine.

Don't understand your problem.
I tried to scrape the info for The Big Bang Theory.
Worked normal as usual.

HTPC? Check your internet connection/Firewall rules......

Same results as sirganty here, with Big Bang too...

My internet connection and firewall rules are not the problem.

The problem is local to certain regions.

here (europe)

http://www.thetvdb.com/ -> 503 Service Temporarily Unavailable cloudflare-nginx

http://thetvdb.com/ -> works ok

so I temporarily added this to the C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts file until cloudflare fixes the problem

141.101.127.180      www.thetvdb.com

and restarted MC
