Awaiting a follow up on our zip/xml issue.

My AutoOrganize is still broken. What issue is covering the problem?

This one?

TVDB.com has broken their API's it is nothing to do with Emby and the Auto Organize plugin

 

 

TVDB.com will sort it out - eventually!

 

 

I don't understand why they don't just switch the API back to v2 and do more testing on v3!

They had most of these issue the last time they did this.  I have a feeling they would prefer everyone else to change, but there are a lot of programs out there that are no longer being developed.  The had to re-enable SSL 3 do legacy software out there.  

 

As for Auto Organizer it is dependant on metadata from provider to be able to move media.  Currently the metadata that is coming back from TVDB has changed and they have said they are going to fix it.  But in the end we may have to put a patch in place for the issue.  But at the same time it has been reported on their site that this data may be old data also.

 

As reported about the Auto Organizer it would appear other providers work in the beta server branch.

 

When something is dependant on one site you can see how it will affect everything.

My server is running on my Synology and Emby are not accepting Beta users :/ annoying for me at the min :( but I'm sure TVDB will sort it out soon.

Hi there.

 

Movie identification is working fine, however TV series identification simply returns no results, even with IMDB codes that worked a before (seems this problem is about 1 week or two old). 

 

Is there something up with this, shall I just wait for a fix or is this a deeper issue?

 

I am not even getting any new episode descriptions or anything like it used to do. Simpy showing the file name (my library is named as emby requires).

Exact same behavior here. Problem started 2 days ago for me. I can pull down art work from fanart but nothing from tvdb including metadata.

Hi.
I tried to identify several series using imdb tag and failed, the server gives me empty result page.
Went ahead and checked the logs. seems like the requests to tvdb are ok AND returns the file, also the files are saved i nthe cache directory as they should.
I did notice that the logs are displaying exception : `System.IO.FileNotFoundException: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not find file '/config/cache/tvdb/tt4047038/en.xml'`
it is indeed true. the zip file from the tvdb: `https://www.thetvdb.com/api/B89CE93890E9419B/series/312505/all/en.zip`does not contains 'en.xml' but 'en.zip.xml' could be a bug in tvdb or could be they decided to change it. looks more like a bug if you ask me, but, can you reffer me to the place in the code that searches this file ? i think of building from source.

Also if you have an idea where can i file a bug report for tvdb let me know and i will.

 

thanks.

Here's a patch to the tvdb plugin that works around the .zip.xml thing. Use at your own risk though because we don't know yet if the data coming back can be fully trusted at this point.

 

Edit: Tvdb plugin update 1.0.20 released.

Thanks for the DLL @@Luke.

Working great so far.

I'm still keeping a list of shows from the start of all of this until its all officially over... just in case.

 

Anyway... thanks again.
