[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 858607, member: 18896"] If you look at the scraper-script, it shows an author in there. The Russian one that I find is: [B][url]http://code.google.com/p/moving-pictures/source/browse/trunk/MovingPictures/DataProviders/ScraperScripts/Kinopoisk.xml[/url][/B] Which has <author> tag on LRFalk01 and others. I happen to know LRFalk will start a scraper-script, but then expects somebody with local language knowledge to take over (I do the same). That seems to be the problem right now, finding a Russian MediaPortal user with a little programming knowledge (scraper-scripts are not 'that' hard actually) that will take up the task to fix issues. Last update was Dec 30th 2011, so it could very well be that things have changed at the Kinopoisk site to break the scraper, or the artwork node bug was never fixed before. I've helped on quite a few scraper-scripts as well, but any non-English one was only doable with a lot of help from somebody who spoke the language and could test the script on their system with the same language configured as the scraper. And it can end up in a big job if the movie info site constantly makes changes. I'm behind the IMDb+ scraper-script system (it has plugin to adjust options and auto-update) and I would love to add Russian language support to it, but that will only work if there is a Russian movie site that accepts an IMDb tt-ID as input to give the Russian version back. Swedish example for Avatar (tt0499549): [B][url]http://www.nyheter24.se/filmtipset/imdb/tt0499549[/url][/B] So I've got English, Dutch, French, German, Icelandic, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish, and Swedish languages covered but don't know a Russian movie info site I can use to also add support for that one. Help me find one and I'll have you covered :) Otherwise hopefully somebody from Russia will come forward to take over the task of managing the Kinpoisk scraper. In the meantime I will get a hold of LRFalk01 and see if he is willing to look into it, as it might be an easy fix. [/QUOTE]
