Here is a sample log.

18089:164118.006 [ Timer-4] INFO            TVDB Request URL: http://thetvdb.com/banners/episodes/260315/4880309.jpg

Which appears to be this bit of code:

            URL url = new URL(urlStr);
            BufferedImage image = ImageIO.read(url);
            if ( ImageIO.write(image, "png", new File( fileName ) ) )
                return;
            else
                log.error("Failed write - no image appropriate write available.");

So either the "new URL" fails to generate a proper URL for ImageIO or ImageIO.read() has change syntax or something.
