Go to Settings>Addons, pull out the left sideblade menu and select Check for Updates
And ensure you leave auto-update enabled for all important addons, scrapers being very important for Kodi.
Just one small thing: has the poster download from IMDB ever been a thing? Rescanning old movie (just for test) isn't downloading any poster if I don't select fanart or TMDB and I had poster before (different from the one downloaded from fanart od TMDB).

Posters come from TMDB or fanart.tv depending on your settings.
I don't recall if UMS ever scraped posters from IMDB. Maybe @olympia can confirm.

(2021-08-27, 09:37)Karellen Wrote:I swear it used to be able to pull posters from IMDB and thats what I had it set to... At some point in the last 4 months (probably during the last update), Universal Movie Scraper stopped scraping posters all together, like what others have been describing here. After some debugging and making sure everything is up to date, I realized that the only TMDB and fanart.tv options were available for posters, and they were both disabled. Almost like I was using IMDB before the update, and then the update removed the option without enabling either of the other ones.(2021-08-27, 09:20)pivsxii Wrote: Just one small thing: has the poster download from IMDB ever been a thing?IIRC, artwork does not come from IMDB.

Is there anywhere I can see the changelogs for the Universal Movie Scraper? Or perhaps the git repo?

Like I said, I don't ever recall posters being scraped from IMDB, but maybe that function was broken with the IMDB site redisign over the last 6 months.

Anyone know what the reasoning was for this? Will it be added back soon?

RE: Universal Movie Scraper - olympia - 2021-09-13
Yes, IMDB posters were possible before, but IMDb has changed their engine displaying the images and the feature has got broken.
I had a look to get it fixed, but it's nightmare (i.e. I couldn't find a way to scrape them), while at the same time probably no one really wants those low res images; Subsequently I've got the option removed.
RE: Universal Movie Scraper - literally - 2021-09-15
quick question : I've got Joan of Arc (1900) in my collection and no matter what source or combination of sources I use in UMS to pull the metadata, it populates the year of release as 2036.
any ideas?

RE: Universal Movie Scraper - Karellen - 2021-09-15
I don't know if you are using IMDB or TMDB for Search, but that is a Short, not a Movie. You need to enable "Include all movie categories" in the Search settings page of the scraper for IMDB.

regardless of the category, still confused why the year would populate to 15 years in the future.

RE: Universal Movie Scraper - nuovacarne - 2021-09-15
Hi!
In past, if Universal Scraper didn't find a movie, I put the id (ex tt0000235) in form search and all worked fine.
Now doesn't work, and I can't find many movi (the shorts, for example).
How Can I resolve it ?
