I wonder if this is a bug or on purpose?

First of all, Thank you for the program.

When I scrape movies I keep them the same format you recommend. \movie.avi

But I can never scrape more than 20 at a time. and usually just 3-6 or so. It then just kicks out of the program to a "scraper output" log that doesn't provide an error. I can always re-scrape where I started from and I get 3-6 more movies, but I don't know why this happens?

Any ideas? I am using 2.085.

Thank You again.

same thing happens for me. i have a few hundred movies and the scapper will only only scan about 10-20 at a time before kicking out the scrapper log with no errors.

for example:

any idea what could be causing this? i am using version 2.132.

as the above poster mentioned, i can always rescrape and the movie it stopped it will work just fine now.

I finally managed to reproduce the issue and it should be fixed now (version 2.135)

Thank You.

Will be back soon to report.

Dunno if that helps?

Thanks for the effort

The problem is that when an exception occurs in other than the main thread, it just exits the thread.

This makes it very difficult to track.

I would like you to try this version, it's no different to what you tried earlier, but when an error occurs scraping then a msgbox will let you know what and where the exception is, this should allow me to fix it.

I need to know the whole contents of the msgbox



Thanks for your help

D/ling it now...

thank you

Would you try this one please

Sorry for the delay Billy.

Now I have no more movies to scrape. So it's hard for me to test it.

If there is any easy way to go through and delete all the nfo and jpgs and go again.. I don't mind... Too many files to do manually.

Let me know.

Madness

Thanks again for the program.

Thanks again for the program.

same for me all my movies are already scraped.

I just scraped about 2000 movies and it did it to me probably only 3 times so no big deal, looks like you got it licked, I'll grab the debugger when I do the rest and let you know what I find
