Hey,
Looks like it just started happening and don't know if you are aware or not, but the API is not returning results for any item.
Take Care

Hi,
observed same problem with XMBC artwork downloader
Calling api with tmdb ids works. Calling api with imdb ids returns nothing.
also happens when sending requests manually. Example for the same movie
Code: Select all
http://api.fanart.tv/webservice/movie/<apikey>/83542/json/all/1/2/
works, but
Code: Select all
http://api.fanart.tv/webservice/movie/<apikey>/tt1371111/json/all/1/2/
returns null

Thanks Kode for this quick fix and also for the post in the artwork downloader forum about the commoncache.db. You helped a lot

What are the odds, that the few show id's I tried all didn't exist... Thanks for the tip.

I think I may have a similar experience with several albums I uploaded covers and backgrounds for.
An example is the CD Solas, by the group with the same name.
The musicbrainz release group id is:
079c24f6-b312-33a9-856d-d6023008bda0
(
https://musicbrainz.org/release-group/0 ... 023008bda0)
and it seems to be the same mbid here.
I try to get xbmc to download the thumbs and background, but the log shows:
...

How do I fix this?
