nuentes 33 Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 PS - I think this should be expanded out to include movies. Specifically, movies that are straight to streaming platforms. When a new movie downloads immediately upon release, it will have wildly inaccurate star ratings, and other data might be missing, such as unannounced cameos. It would nice to get movies to also refresh after a week or so. Ideally, we could set a different refresh rate for movies vs episodes. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McMovies 6 Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 recently discovered this plug-in. It a life saver for me.. Thanks a lot @TeamB.

Sorry may be i'm not able to explain or put down the problem statement correctly ? I was referring for movies most of the people metadata -- where complete cast and crew were not listed in tbdb TMDB example - IMDB https://www.imdb.com/title/tt24852002/ has complete cast crew, TMDB - https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/1074262-kotu-adamin-10-gunu only 3 people in cast/crew. And no matter what i try, emby wont sync this cast/crew form IMDB regardless how many time i refresh metadata/identify. May be even a manual "force update" cast-crew would help. need just a mechanism to sync these missing data.

It will only use the Providers listed in what you have configured for that library. In the case of movies - them TMDB is likely the primary. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's far more simple. There are 2 types of movies: Movies initially released to theaters - for these, the data generally gets entered by some crazy person pretty quickly. Probably within 2 weeks, but likely within a week. This category of movie is usually fine (as far as metadata is concerned) by the time there is a download available. Movies initially released direct to disc/stream - These are the ones that are a problem. We download them on release date, so the information isn't really correct. If we refresh after 7 days, I'm sure the data will be more correct. So wouldn't it be possible to simply configure movies to refresh twice. Once at 7 days, and once again at 14 days. These could be default values that can be modified by the user. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaycedk 386 Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 Hmm so will that be physical release or Digital release ? And the skip Cinema release, since recording in the cinema is frowned on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeamB 2354 Posted August 26, 2023 Author Share Posted August 26, 2023 there is only "release date" this cold mean different things to different movies depending on if it was a straight to DVD/Streaming release or a cinema release. I did not include moves as there was no easy way to know which was which. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rbjtech 4287 Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 I think the easiest way to look at this is to just refresh metadata based on the date added date. Yes, you may well be adding an 'old' movie/ TV series or even new movies not on 'release' day - and that metadata refresh will likely not be required - but there is no harm doing a one off refresh after x days. Using the core library built in function will ultimately do the same thing - but it will keep repeating, which I think is unnecessary. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I usually do the manual mata refresh every 6 months or so..(don't use the auto) The plugin was built for.. (episode refresh) TBA titles, missed ratings, crappy ep thunbs.. If @TeamBwants to add movies I'm all good with that! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just working on it for movies ..) So far so good - JS needs a bit of formatting but c# compiles so almost there .. edit .. hmm changing the JS elements over to Movies seems to have broken it good and proper.. Can't spend any more time on it today - but the framework is there. Edited August 26, 2023 by rbjtech 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emby desperately need something that refresh the movies ratings few days after being added. Edited October 29, 2023 by fahad92 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
