I'm of course using the IMDb+ scraper myself, but I also have TMDB scraper enabled to allow roughly 1% of movies in my collection to import, as well as the CDUniverse scraper for a different purpose . The TMDB scraper is needed for the movies that simply do not have an entry at the IMDb site, but somebody did create one at TMDB.

I do however notice more and more with users that I assist in setting up their MediaPortal environment that at the default Moving-Pictures setting of importing with 5 threads simultanously it causes TMDB to freak out quickly and deny access. This will usually show up inside the movingpictures.log file with errors that it is unable to connect. Reducing to 3 threads in the advanced setting of MovPic tends to solve this problem without sacrificing a lot of import speed.

Does make me curious if the mass-import you test with works fine if you would use IMDb+.

[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 959443, member: 18896"] I'm of course using the IMDb+ scraper myself, but I also have TMDB scraper enabled to allow roughly 1% of movies in my collection to import, as well as the CDUniverse scraper for a different purpose :whistle:. The TMDB scraper is needed for the movies that simply do not have an entry at the IMDb site, but somebody did create one at TMDB. I do however notice more and more with users that I assist in setting up their MediaPortal environment that at the default Moving-Pictures setting of importing with 5 threads simultanously it causes TMDB to freak out quickly and deny access. This will usually show up inside the movingpictures.log file with errors that it is unable to connect. Reducing to 3 threads in the advanced setting of MovPic tends to solve this problem without sacrificing a lot of import speed. Does make me curious if the mass-import you test with works fine if you would use IMDb+. [/QUOTE]
