MCM no longer fetching any shows

I have 10 currently-active shows and not a single one has downloaded in the last 5 or 6 days. MCM is trying RARBG.TO and katcr.co and thepiratebay.org but it's not finding any files.

I can find every one of them searching manually, and if I download a show manually MCM will find the appropriate artwork and move the file as needed, the same as always.

If I use the same URL that MCM is supposedly using to search according to the debug logs I get valid hits (for example, https://thepiratebay.org/search/james%2 ... 01/0/7/208).

It just won't discover and auto-download so I'm not sure what's going on here. Support info attached.

EZTV was the only fetcher working for a while, and the TLD has now changed (eztv.io is no eztv.re) updating this in the custom hostname area didn't fix it. It will find episodes, but can't download them as it throws an error that it can't resolve "eztv.io"

So is there a workaround or is MCM now basically dead in the water for everyone? And is there an alternative?

You’re not alone. My father and myself are having issues fetching TV Shows. We both made no changes and it just randomly stopped working. We don’t use EZTV to fetch as it was fetching the incorrect episode for a while but we do use all other fetch providers. I wonder if this has anything to do with the new TVDB api announcement?
Pete’s input would be really good here!

Have you tried editing your host file? Redirect the old domain to the new one?

Broken for me as well. Download history at least keeps track of what it "should" be finding. It seems also that Emby's TV Section is not showing all the upcoming shows either.

MCM fetcher randomly started working again. So far it has fetched 9 shows with no issues.

There may have been an unannounced outage at the fetcher source. I just tested thetvdb.com API v2 and v3 and both are working fine still.
