@ebr  Ha thank you very much, I can now undo the code that uses the api, to fetch the series info, (though it wasn't a total waste as its got me to learn a load about the using the api) and reading resources from the theme fix, stops me from thinking i'm an idiot for not being able to make it work.

Cheers Eric, thanks for the quick fix. I'll check it out on sunday, got a weekend with missus planned.

Which ratings have we added here just to be clear

 

Item.imdbrating

item.criticrating

item.mpaa

 

Nothing is showing up for me.

[ebr 16169]

I filled in ImdbRating and CriticRating for Series (which weren't before).  Mpaa/Official should have already been there.

 

CriticRating is probably not going to exist for TV series but I confirmed with the debugger that ImdbRating is being filled in.

Ok, that's what I thought.  I may just have to recheck my code as i can't see it.

 

Thanks for the info.  Do you have a good site to go for on debugging in mcml as the ones i've found are very convoluted. 

 

EDIT: @@BeppoMonkeyBoy can you also confirm this or not

 

Just to confirm... This is not working using the Gospel Theme, also tried square, subdued, xenon, Iridium, classic

 

Metadata

 

 

Chocolate

What I confirmed was that the value was being filled in at the c# level and it is.  I assumed those themes were just not showing the field for Series but I'll have a look and see if there is something else in play.

[ebr 16169]

Yep, there was other code in the core that was blocking that value for series.  Got it for next version.

 

[Cheesegeezer 3104]

Sweet!! nicely done

Not tested the new build but will at some point tomorrow, the previous build it wasn't working but embedded mediainfo was working fine.

Beppo it's working fine in 261.  Just grab the [item.ImdbRating]  to populate you scores or stars and what ever tier the TV Show is in it will grab and populate, so even if you had Season Scores it would do it for them too.

[BeppoMonkeyBoy 98]

Yes it's working in the lastest, but on a similar vein, is it just me or are Writers, not being populated? Directors and Actors are but I can't seem to pull out Writers, Only noticed since I started revamping my details screen,

Writers have never been pulled in my experience and to try and get images of Directors also doesn't work, ST cursed to try and get Directors to work correctly.

[BeppoMonkeyBoy 98]

Only noticed it because, i'm trying to do an actor summary page, that links off the detail page, I'm pulling a list using the moviedb api, so i can show a list of items that the actor has been in even if they aren't in your system, its kinda working in the lastest build, but i'm thinking of changing it again, to use the actor detail from the local mb api, and just the movie details from themoviedb, writer and director info will work the same as before.
