highonascii Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 There was a bug in the update library function. Here is a temp build that fixes it. I am still fixing some other stuff right now. Just install this, update the library should do the trick. Update libraries is working like it use to again it seems... I'll report findings after how ever long this takes to update.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highonascii Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Think I installed it OK, said it was updated anyway. If you mean this Update Library... It doesn't add the episodes to the series, it just makes the (empty) series disappear, thought the series comes back again if I back out of the list of series and go back in again - its still got no episodes though. Course considering what I know about Kodi I might be doing something really basic wrong... No... in the addon here... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angelblue05 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Yes that's the one. Or if you open the context menu on the library itself in the emby for kodi listing, you'll find options per individual library. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arrbee99 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Thanks for the help everyone. Didn't work though. Tried updating TV, then tried updating All twice. Still the same. Should I try Repairing the library or Resetting the database or sending a log (have restarted Kodi a few times though). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angelblue05 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Just to make sure, is this a tv show that should have series pooling applied? (where the series is separated on multiple hdds?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should I try Repairing the library or Resetting the database or sending a log (have restarted Kodi a few times though). I just repaired my libraries and that might be the best option. Or reset local database and then add libraries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angelblue05 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 For simple missing episodes then an update should do the trick (it pulls all content from the library, same as add library, but since the entries still exists, it updates existing information). A repair should be last resort. A repair removes all entries from that library first, then re-adds (same as add library). However there is a bug with series pooling which is what I'm fixing right now, if that is the case then nothing you do will fix this atm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I have films and TV shows scattered about various disks, and a few shows have series that are on different discs, but these particular series (and their episodes) are all on the same disc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arrbee99 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Thanks for that. Please tell me if I'm wasting your time though, like I say I'm not very familiar with Kodi and don't want to waste your time fixing something that might turn out to be a 'just click here / duh, is that all' moment.

Noel Grassy Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Ok I repaired movies and my tv library. Fixed all the stuff that didn't show up but it's not auto syncing right. I added 4 movies and only two added correctly the other 2 have no artwork plot but if i hit info the artwork is there but no plot or anything else.

Angelblue05 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 (edited) Log? I know I'm annoying with that but I'm trying to see if it's just because it processes updates before additions or what. If there's no info usually means it's the added event. But that it never processed the update event which indicates all information was scraped. Edit: At least it feels like we are getting closer to the issue...

djhifi Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Nope you are definitely not wasting my time In fact I appreciate you testing and helping me get to the bottom of this. Isnt this the good old series pooling issue on the addon side? I changed my collection 1 year ago to never again have to deal with this issue, at first it was herculean since I have so many TV Shows but it was the best choice. I think the problem still lies in the way how the addon retrieves the IDs from the table and comes across the same "scrapped" name on a diferente path?

Try repairing your tv show library and let me know if it resolves your issue. Note, this only fixes series pooling. I'm not exactly sure if that is your issue but let's try it anyway and hopefully we get a little further to solving this, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah previously that was the case, but I resolved this (or at least I thought I did, with 3.1x) but now it's really fixed according to my many tests.

Angelblue05 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 (edited) I left it alone for awhile and it updated the movies and added them all. So patience was needed. Glad because I'm over here adding movies and episodes and they all worked. I'm working on re-adding the backup option, so you'll be able to test that out too.

Yep, that seemed to work - deleted the library then chugged its way through putting it all back plus those episodes it missed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I marked it as fixed (it's getting a little hard to track outstanding issues).Post a new post for remaining issues.
