When I readded series, data was refetched and the series showed up in upcoming. I'm just trying it with my other series still airing. May the force be with me Edit: Everything's showing now in Upcoming like on cytec. Well done Bufu! It just shows until the end of february, I think perhaps there is kinda item limit.

cytec 11 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 (edited) I've seen some of you got a little confused on how the NextAired stuff is handled. Maybe i can clear that up a little bit: First of all the main goal was to bring (sort of) german Airdates in an usable api, which isn't that easy at all... as there are several series which are aired on different networks at different times through the german speaking countries (Switzerland, Austria and Germany) So baiscally to have the correct dates available one must save up to 3 different dates for one episode and then query for the users origin country to provide the actually correct date and network which is way to much effort for what i was planing to do in the first place. As i said before it was build to replace dates in SickBeard so that SB knows when to search for the next show. As the Scene doesn't really care about "network and country airings" i decided to use the FIRST airing in german speaking countries. That's what @ mentioned here http://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/30923-cytec-metadata-german-airdate-support/?p=296667the date is not correct for TV Release but it is if you rely on Internet releases because there are some Shows which are available on Netflix, Amazon, Maxdome etc up to a week before the TV Release. And again. This is ment for SickBeard so the "Scene Release Date" is used here. If you don't wish to use that feature (like you obvious do) simply go ahead, register your own account go to your profile and generate an api key. on your profile page you'll be able to enable/disable the option "Benutze Scene Release Dates im API!" and now you should get correct dates. EDIT: the second thing is: that if there are no German Info's available you'll be provided with the original ones. to clear that up: IF there is only one single german date for a show, you won't get any original data. but if there is no german date you'll get the original ones instead... That may not be the best option for such a use case but again, this was intended to be an drop in tvdb replacement for my SickBeard for and never intended to be used as an upcoming shedule in media centers... There is an V2 Api for this purpose which obviously isn't compatible with thetvbd anymore but therefore gives you an front end like overview on what's airing in the next x Days. which in my oppionion should be used by media centers instead of relying on some meta data... Sooooo... if i get that correctly emby stores the "upcoming" stuff in a different location then the meta data itself? if thats the case @@Bufu may contact me and we'll get something working based on the V2 api to ONLY provide the UPCOMING data ... I Hope that helped some of you PS: that said option may not work 100% as there was changed a lot of how the server handles requests and especially caching as there are a ton of requests all of a sudden... so you may will get the wrong dates even if you disabled the option in your profile... but i'm currently working/thinking of a solution for that already.

shorty1483 453 Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 (edited) Nice to see you here @@cytecI'm the one who wrote the message on your forum.Really looking forward to see a reliable solution from you and @@Bufu.Talking about your suggestions, there is an API key field in the plugin, we are registered on your site with an own API key which is used. The scene release option is not checked in settings. But the dates in my calendar on your page are different to the ones given out by the API, but not for all series. The dates in calendar on webpage are the correct ones though. When downloading e.g. Castle, all episodes are one week ahead in de.zip, is this due to the Maxdome presentation? But then shouldn't Maxdome also shown on the webpage where it says kabel1?Gesendet von meinem HTC One M8 mit Tapatalk Edited February 7, 2016 by elysium Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shorty1483 453 Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 (edited) Bufu, don't know what happened, but after server reboot today in the morning followed by a regular library scan, all the Upcoming stuff lost german airdates and just shows the airdates of tvdb . A check of /cache/tvdb shows, that all still airing series got replaced by the tvdb stuff ignoring the crytec plugin. I'm using Dev-Server so I don't know if something changed in Server core related to that. In Upcoming, the Episodes are shown with the US airdates, but with german <studio> which is stored in tvshow.nfo with the the media.

cytec 11 Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 (edited) @ the dates on the website are targeted to TV Distribution the ones provided by the api can be either those for tv or for scene dates... that's not really the cleanest solution as there are a few shows which show dates with a week offset but i don't know any other way for handling this as... technically the dates on the website are correct for TV release but some shows can be watched a week before "original" release online (this isn't needed for "upcoming" but for SickBeard etc) EDIT: i've been thinking about this stuff for a while now already and the only thing i came up with are those: 1. A Seperate api endpoint for either TV or Scene stuff 2. Disable caching for the api (unlikely to happen as of the huge load) 3. Use the Current V2 API (with some addons) to get the Correct Dates ONLY for TV Or what is in my mind for a long time already: just disable the Scene Stuff and provide original first TV Release in german spoken areas Edited February 7, 2016 by cytec 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bufu 18 Posted February 8, 2016 Author Share Posted February 8, 2016 (edited) @@cytec I have tried any combination of settings in my tvdb.cytec usersettings, but i never get the right dates for german tv releases. What about different zips for each country? You can leave the de.zip at current airdate, to support SickBeard, but add a de-de.zip for german airdates, a de-ch.zip for Switzerland and a de-a.zip for Austria. To load the upcomings shows not from Metadata, requires some changes in the emby-server-core and i think luke will not very happy about this pull-request @ I got the same problem since yesterday. I will add a log entry, to be able to retrace the real source for airdates. I'm not sure if the wrong tvdb airdates are loaded from to tvdb. Maybe they are loaded from cytec.
