Hello,

"Unable to connect to the site. The api.themoviedb.org site does not allow a connection. "

Russia, Tambov region.

The API only works over VPN.

We urgently need to resolve this issue))

TMDB plugin for Kodi don't work. In Russia too

assumption: perhaps there are people who are interested in the fact that in Russia users watch films only through Russian providers.

@nk11dev I FOUND A FIX! We (from Russia or other country) can use Cloudflare DNS. 1.1.1.1 And all is work! Yeah!

Did I understand you correctly: i need to configure Cloudflare DNS. 1.1.1. on my PC in the properties of the adapter. If so, what to do with application users. Do not baffle them with this problem. ?

Can confirm. After setting my IPv4 DNS to 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1 my TMDB scrapers in Kodi started working again.

How it use for app requests ?

tried Cloudflare dns 1.1.1.1. REquests are not processed (in androidStudio's emulators )

If you are using a PC.
Try it In hosts, you can register any ip address obtained from here
https://dnschecker.org/country/ru/#A/api.themoviedb.org

except these
13.33.240.4
13.33.240.55
13.33.240.129
13.33.240.18
13.225.78.67
13.225.78.8

example :
13.227.73.20 api.themoviedb.org

I tried to register in hosts for anroid, but through the application the request still goes to blocked ip
