For TV series, right click the series and select Switch series scraper to TMDb This will scrape the TMDb ID for the series and from then scrape the episodes from TMDb. You can also do this in Bulk from the Folders tab, by changing the root folder source from TVDB to TMDb. If doing a Bulk change, please use Batch rescrape wizard and select TMDB Id for Series as well as Episodes and let the wizard run. https://mediacompanion.sourceforge.io/Images/Tv/TVFolders/TVFolder-2a.jpg

IMDB scraping is currently non‑functional due to the enforcement a web application firewall on imdb.com In Movie Preferences -> Scraper, unselect all options for data from IMDb. For now IMDB is no go for retrieving movie data.....I am trying to resolve but it is taking a lot of my free time.

TVDb has removed their v1 and v2 api access. v4 is a pay model that we haven't incorporated. For the time being, switch your shows over to TMBd to scrape new Series and existing Episodes.

The TVDb has retired their V1 and V2 API access. This means for now, MC can only use TMDb for TV series and episodes. I did not want to get the V4 API as this is a Paid access, when majority of their data is user entered. Doesn't seem fair they get paid, when users enter the data for free. BUT, since I am attempting to update MC to a higher Dot Net version to get IMDb access back, I will investigate adding V4 for TMDb...
