I have enabled thetvdb metadata downloader as above and the example for mikaeilo lomonosov id 253709 resolves to https://thetvdb.com/movies/bajar-es-lo-peor But my own problem is: i dont get the metadata for the lego masters tv show https://thetvdb.com/series/389181-lego-masters i only get https://thetvdb.com/movies/ninjago-masters-of-spinjitzu-day-of-the-departed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37064 Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 @Glueckstiger how are your files named and organized? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8281 Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 @Glueckstiger Sorry but you are showing info for Movies and Series as providers have specific queries for each and same ids can exist on both side for different media. Your library content type will be a factor. And structure will also if in Mixed Content as the auto detection system will decide whether to search Movie or Series.

Glueckstiger 2 Posted September 1, 2022 Author Share Posted September 1, 2022 Hi, my folder structure is /volume1/video/recordings/[name1|name2|name3] for mixed content lib. So, how can i choose, if its a movie pr a series so thetvdb can look for the right type? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8281 Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 You have to have structure and naming for Auto detection to decide whether it is movie or Series. So folder Star Wars with a file S01E01 should be identified as a Series, while folder Star Wars with file Star Wars would be a movie. There is no manual way to for a folder to be identified as Movie or Series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote TV series are supported in mixed content libraries using the Unset content type, but season sub-folders are required in this scenario. https://support.emby.media/support/solutions/articles/44001159110-tv-naming Edited September 1, 2022 by roaku Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37064 Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 Correct. Some of the more loosey goosey naming conventions are only supported with the dedicated TV content type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glueckstiger 2 Posted September 2, 2022 Author Share Posted September 2, 2022 Where can i find tv content type? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37064 Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 That would be Serien. If you're setting up a new library please make sure to remove the old one. Let us know how things go. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
