Version 1.7.1.2- Tool to scrape TV Show Information for the WDTV Live Hub [9/17/2012]

I actually don’t know for sure. 

The 4.0 comes from the fact that it’s MS VB 2010.  I don’t know if Microsoft Framework 3.5 will work or not.

Hello!

I can’t get this working.

When I “Load XML” i get an error.

"An error has been encountered while trying to download the Series

Information: Conversion from string “25.0” to type 'Double is not valid."

I have tried to use your example, and different shows but i get this message all the time.

Tell me all the options you’re using, and the Series ID you’re trying.

Here is an screenshot.

After that nothing happens

This is for Dexter (79349)

Same for Fringe (82066), Supernatural (78901), Mad Men (80337) osv.

But The Walking Dead ( 153021), Person of Interest (248742) and Boardwalk empire (84947) work just fine.

Do i have some incorrect settings?

Unfortunately, we can’t see your pics until a moderator approves them.  Might be a while since it’s a weekend.

Or you can post it to Flickr or something…

Thanks Tony. It looks like a great tool. If i give it a try on 3.5 I’ll be sure to post back how it goes. I guess I’ll be able to tell pretty quick whether tht’s going to be a problem

I don’t know why it’s not working on your PC…  Dexter is working fine for me:

Fringe, Supernatural, Mad Men all work for me, too.

My only guess is there’s something wrong in the .NET framework on your PC.

Oh.  Just thought of something.

In your locale, are decimal numbers represented by PERIOD (.) or COMMA (,)?

I’m not quite sure what you mean by “local”?

Some settings on my coputer?

I’ve tried on two computers but have the same problem on both.

“Locale” means “where you live.”

You configured your PC with a Locale when you first booted it that tells it what number conventions and alphabet your “locale” uses.

Such as English uses the format 1,000,000.12, but other countries use “1.000.000,12” or even “1 000 000,12” etc.

That can make a difference, so I’m curious what the convention is where you live.

I’m not sure where to look but i think it is like this 1 000 000,12 (norway)

Here’s a test you can try.

If you’re using Windows 7, go to the configuration for REGION & LANGUAGE

On the “Formats” tab, click “Additional Settings” button.

Note the CURRENT settings for “Decimal Symbol” and “Digit grouping symbol”.

My “Decimal symbol” is , (COMMA) and “Digit grouping sumbol” is empty.

Thanks!

Now it works.

I changed “Decimal symbol” to . (PERIOD) and “Digit grouping symbol” remains empty.

Ok, so now I know where to look in the code.

That would be a bug;  my code needs to consider the locale’s conventions when doing typecasting.

You will want to remember to set those settings back to where it they were when you’re not using my program; those settings will have very broad impact on the other applications you use.

Version 1.7.1.2 is now up!

** Added an option to save the covers/thumbs as “metathumb” format, which does actually have a lot of utility over JPGs.

Im a New comer to all this… 

 I cant seem to Download the XMLFetcher… Is this program still supported?

Yep.

what problem are you having?
