Ok, thetvdb generally works fine if you are using English (EN).
I noticed when ever you set content to Polish TV Shows (PL) for some weird reason fan art never gets picked up, posters sometimes work.
few examples of TV shows that FanArt doesn't work in XBMC when using PL for language

FanArt is there, but current Scrapper never picks it up. I have to set it to PL to pick up the correct episode summary.
Not sure if other languages are also affected.

Message from a dev, please create a ticket on trac with the log file attached.
<vdrfan> we will also need ALL scraper options and a dummy show to test with
Dummy show means a attached zipped filesystem which exhibits the problem with a dummy media file (ie a text file renamed as avi)

Any news here? Got no fanarts for german language, too...
Please try again with "Language Override for Banners" checked and report back.

i checked that and selected "update library".. he scanned for a millisecond and did nothing... can i force to update all already found items without deleting the library?

Nope, you will have to refresh it manually or start over with a clean database.

Press info on desired show and select refresh without actually fetching all episodes again.

vdrfan, just installed the new Rev17522 build from Jester. now it doesn't even detect that the show info is in Polish.
for example
http://www.thetvdb.com/?tab=series&id=83920&lid=18
it always defaults to English, and when trying to refresh TV show info, it just says Czas Honoru (EN), there is no Polish entry.
Works fine here. Please set the "Language" to "pl" and check the "Language Override for Banners" option in TVDB scraper settings. If its still not working please test with a very recent SVN build and post a full debug log.
