It looks like they are making some progress at TVDB. The API call now returns text but the XML formatting is missing. Here's an example link . Based upon what I am seeing in the TVDB forums they are more focused on the v2 and v3 API issues but there is a thread on the v1 APi issues .

Peter,

I don't know when the TVDB folks are going to fix this. I do see where the Kodi team and others have started migrating to API v3, which the TVDB folks are focused on maintaining going forward. Is there an option for Mezzmo to be updated to support the v3 API ?

Its not finding any metadata for movies either now - not for me at least.

Movies working fine for me. The go against IMDB and not TVDB for the metadata. I am temporarily using Tiny Media Manager to create MFO files for new TV episodes. it is more time consuming than the built-in Mezzmo scraper but it works.

Unfortunately we do not have time currently to migrate to API v3 so we have to rely upon TVDB fixing the API we are currently using.

Our license fees don't justify any ongoing maintenance of the application, then?

When you purchase Mezzmo/DownloadStudio:

* you own your license of Mezzmo/DownloadStudio for life
* you receive minor updates and bug fixes for free
* major new releases may be charged and this is determined on a case-by-case basis. To date, we have not charged for any new major version that we have released and the upcoming major new version we are developing now will be free to all registered users.

I have had a look at the response returned from thetvdb.org and it appears that they are returning 'all' in the language tag instead of 'en' and Mezzmo is rejecting the results because of this. You can set the language to 'all' instead of 'en' and the search will return results. Posters are not working due to a permissions issue when accessing the URL.

Peter,

I changed the language from EN to ALL and did a Get Metadata for an individual episode and I do get something back from TVDB but there is no episode list to choose the correct episode.
