Error updating tv show library - Unable to connect to remote server - ramonrue - 2016-05-30

Hi everyone,

I'm having a problem with updating my tv show library.
When I select "Update Video Library" I get the error on the Gui "Couldn't download information. Unable to connect to remote server [..]"
My log file shows the following:
Code:

So I don't know what the exact problem is, but I can curl to the link given (http://thetvdb.com/api/GetSeries.php?seriesname=Undateable&language=en) and I get a response in an xml-format with all the information.
I also disabled IPv6 in the advancedsettings.
Does anyone have an idea?

Thanks
