[QUOTE="Dadeo, post: 1045351, member: 27204"] [B]UPDATE YOUR GRABBERS IN SETUP ON THE IMPORT TAB![/B] I have updated most of the 36 grabber scripts now (except OFDB related grabbers which Guzzi will do soon :)). It was shocking how many were partially or totally broken and no one reported an issue. :confused: It makes me wonder - is anyone is using them? Should we keep maintaining them? :p [B]Obsolete Grabbers:[/B] Some grabbers have been removed: [LIST] [*]All the 'localized' [B]IMDB[/B] grabbers since those sites have been discontinued - it's been almost a year and IMDb still has not implemented localized data.

[B]IMDB/IMDB-Full[/B] I have changed IMDB to use IMDB Mobile for searching as it is much faster (IMDB-Full still uses akas.imdb.com).
