And here is a tvshow.nfo: ajebogewaq.kodi (paste)

Yep, that is TVDB scraper with artwork from fanart.tv and TMDB also. Maybe a wrong setting in your TMM setup? I don't use a media manager, so can't give you specifics on settings.

I have debug logging enabled

Not in that log, so there is nothing for me to see except for all the Banned Add-ons (wiki) which means I can't assist further until they are removed.

The forum moderators have determined that banned addons (wiki) are present on your system. To receive assistance here, these banned items must be removed. If a clean log is not submitted within 3 days, then the relevant post(s) will be removed after this time.

I see. So where does the scraper log if its not in kodi log

The scraper logs in the Kodi log. But you did not enable debug mode so there is nothing scraper related of any value in the log you provided. Settings>System>Logging>Debug Mode.

Does tvshow.nfo need the episodeguide tag inside the file or can the scraper work without it?

If you have nfo files for all your episodes, you don't need the tag.
If some episode nfo files are missing, the newer python scrapers (the in this thread) will look it up. The older scrapers cannot do the lookup.

Thank you for the information. It really helps me understand how things work. Since i do use TMM, all my episodes have an nfo file. So I will make sure to remove episodeguide tags from my tvshow.nfo file

Last time I spoke to mlaggner he was going to add a setting to disable adding that tag in tvshow.nfo files as most TMM users didn't need it.

Yes, there is a setting to not write episodeguide in TMM. I just unselected that and rewrote all the nfos for tvshows.

On a different note. If I use TMDB scraper in TMM to scrape movies, can i set Universal movie scraper for my movies in Kodi or do i have to set TMDB scraper there as well?

Here is the Debug log trying to add "Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia": https://paste.kodi.tv/ivehonaciz.kodi. A show of this size is taking at least 10+mins to add to the library.

That's not the whole log. That's a piece of it.  Given previous posts, I'm going to have to assume you didn't post a full log because you have not removed the banned add-ons.  We won't be able to help until we see a full log that doesn't list any banned add-ons showing the behavior. And please don't try and go through and edit the log line by line to remove the references to the banned add-ons. Either remove them, or don't ask for help.

Okay. I reset my whole kodi installation and started fresh. It seems like that solved the problem and tvshows are scanning faster. Here is the log so my posts dont get banned: https://paste.kodi.tv/difikuvimu.kodi

You need to upgrade to Kodi 19 and then see if the problem persists.  Your log shows you're running 18.6 (which isn't even the newest version of Kodi 18).  Also, that wasn't a debug log.  You need to turn on debug logging in the Kodi settings in the future.  But upgrade first.
