Banned IP

Dear all,

as I´m using a VPN (working outside my home country at the moment) to acess the forum, I get always blocked as the IP itself seems to get blocked. My account itself is fine.
Maybe you could check if the IP 155.94.207.116 (and maybe others related to the same network) really have to get blocked in general as it makes the usage of the forum much more complicated for me.
If I can help you providing further information, please let me know.
For the moment, I added an exception to exclude the forum from the VPN. But this is not working on all devices.

Thankss and best regards,
Matthias

Kodi 16.1 – TMDb does not find the movie but search URL is OK

Hi.

I'm part of French Kodi users forum Media-Passion.fr and one of our users face a stange bug.

He's trying to scrap "M et le 3ème secret" :

https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/372394-...-me-secret

Movie file is well named :

D:\Videos\Films\M et le 3eme secret\M et le 3eme secret.avi

But the scrap get no result during scrap :

Code:
11:50:00 T:1480   DEBUG: ADDON::CScraper::FindMovie: Searching for 'M et le 3eme secret' using The Movie Database scraper (path: 'C:\Kodi\16.1\portable_data\addons\metadata.themoviedb.org', content: 'movies', version: '3.9.2')

11:50:00 T:1480   DEBUG: scraper: GetSearchResults returned <results></results>

But when you copy/paste search URL in your browser :

http://api.tmdb.org/3/search/movie?api_k...anguage=fr

TMDb API return the right movie :

Code:
{"page":1,"results":[{"poster_path":"\/dlM4n4UxWPKZfLboaKDga3oOK9j.jpg","adult":false,"overview":"","release_date":"","genre_ids":[99],"id":372394,"original_title":"M et le 3ème secret","original_language":"fr","title":"M & the third secret (2015)","backdrop_path":"\/pzPKu2Gi2pQog3z8aIGuOMUyJ7q.jpg","popularity":1.000007,"vote_count":0,"video":false,"vote_average":0}],"total_results":1,"total_pages":1}

Setup information :

Kodi : Starting Kodi (16.1 Git:20160424-c327c53). Platform: Windows NT x86 32-bit
Scraper : metadata.themoviedb.org version 3.9.2

Thanks.
