Why doesn't work scrap.exe to me?

Devil Akuma · 2009-03-23, 12:03

Hi there,

I'm trying to do a new scraper. I've downloaded some examples and I've tried to prove it with the scrap.exe tool but I receive a error message:

Code:

"Error: Could not load scraper culturalia.xml"

I've got (in the same folder) the files culturalia.xml, scrap.exe, libcurl.dll and I write try it with scrap culturalia.xml "Fight Club"

What have I been doing wrong?

Thanks in advance.

scrap is outdated. "somebody" forgot to commit the source to svn, then lost it.

So, Is it normal that the application show this error to me?

Is there any chance to prove my scraper?

i don't get how you could interpret 'outdated' elsewise

use xbmc... that's how i always did it

Sorry, but my english is not so good :P (I'm from Spain)

Do you know where have I put this file (myscraper.xml) to prove it? I've looked for imdb.xml but I couldn't find it!

Thanks in advance

I write try it with scrap culturalia.xml "Fight Club"

Try this:

scrap.exe culturalia.xml fight_club

That will work but remeber XBMC could parse different, so you better try out after each regex in XBMC.
