Travis Bell at TMDB has stated the issue is resolved.

The tv show scraper seems to be doing something weird with parsing nfos for episode groups. It finds the show fine but it's stopped using the episode groups that I set. I tried the flatpak version as well and it worked fine for everything except all the shows with parsing nfos had no episodes. I tried again later and now it's doing the same thing as before where it's finding episodes but ignores the episode group.

I figured it out. I had the wrong scraper for some reason. I can't find how to edit posts at the moment and I just realized I probably posted this in the wrong place anyway so apologies. I didn't notice there were 2 moviedb tv scrapers.

Yes, I see the error for the scraper. I also see that plugin.video.themoviedb.helper used by whichever skin you are using, is also having problems with Error 404.
I am thinking some problem at TheMovieDB site. Are you still having problems?

Maybe @jurialmunkey can check for plugin.video.themoviedb.helper. Also, the addon seems to have taken over the log with messages, any way to reduce its activity? It makes it difficult to read anything else in the log.

Knowing nothing about plugin.video.themoviedb.helper, but it looks to me for example
 

Code:

HTTP Error Code: 404
Request: https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/None/similar?&region=US&language=en-US&include_image_language=en,null,en&include_video_language=en,null,en

is failing because it doesn't follow the API https://developer.themoviedb.org/referen...ie-similar, and that's because "None" has to be the tmdb movie_id.  My guess is the addon isn't checking something right (like maybe it assumes a variable for movie_id has "Nonetype" for no data  but it is actually the string "None").

Skin problem. Not using the plugin correctly. It is failing to provide a query or tmdb_id for endpoints requiring a query or tmdb_id. That is clear from the several lines such as
?info=recommendations&type=movie&query=&nextpage=false

The original AZ2 never left beta and I abandoned it. This issue is related to a pre-Nexus skinning engine problem where nested skin variables return empty inside dialogs (the nested variables are being used to construct the plugin path). It is unlikely this "resurrection" mod adds any workaround to address that issue in the skin on Matrix

I probably should catch these None values in the plugin and raise an exception rather than just pass through the request -- but that still won't fix the skin being broken... All it will mean is an error notification being raised constantly instead because the skin is not constructing the plugin path correctly (which is then going to gum up the log even more!)

Hi.
I would like to request that this scraper don't translate the genre when fetching data about a movie. It's annoing to have same genre but for different languages in the database. Or at least have a settings for it so the user choose which language they want, that differ from the language in all the other metadata.
In the long run this should be taken care of from Kodi's side, to not store translated genre in the database and translate them with respect to gui language, but at least for now it would be appiciated if this scraper doesn't put translated genres in the database.

[nixwissen]

i got a problem using this scraper. I use the settings preferred language = de-DE and search language = de-DE and Preferred Certification country = de and this works fine for title, plot and certification. But it seems that it doesn't work with the date premiered time.
For example:
13 Minutes 
kodi: 29/10/2021 (US - cinema)
themoviedb: 07.04.2022 (DE)

Asterix und das Geheimnis des Zaubertranks:
kodi: 12/05/2018 (switzerland - cinema)
themoviedb: 14.03.2019 (DE)

*FEATURE REQUEST*
Hello, please would it be possible to add support for dual titles (lets say primary and secondary, where both of them could be configured to a different preferred language)? Thanks to this could one have titles composed of lets say original language and local translation. For example when using original language for primary title and German language for secondary, final title could look like this: Catch Me If You Can (Mein Leben auf der Flucht). This would allow for easier navigation and search in library (as for some movies are local translations more memorable and vice versa). Anyway thanks for great work!

Do we know if TheMovieDB is experiencing server issues? Running v21 Alpha 3 new movies only get scraped with the bare essentials (e.g. 1 fanart when it used to be 13, no discart, thumbnail, etc.).

I have been having some issues related to this addon. It is stuck on the searching for new media. I turned logging on and it makes request to TheMoveDB.org API but it does not find the data for at least 15 minutes.

I have posted a log at https://paste.kodi.tv/ahikuticat.kodi.

Relevant info is:

Code:

2023-11-16 17:31:23.043 T:13930   debug <general>: [metadata.tvshows.themoviedb.org.python (1.6.5)]: Calling URL "https://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/tv?api_key=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX&language=en-US&query=Invincible&first_air_date_year=2021"

Later on there is also an error that says: 

Code:

EDIT: I see it's a problem for themoviedb helper plugin. Sorry for posting here.

Often when starting a movie with Aeon Nox SiLVO skin I get an error which corresponds to this in the log:

2024-01-18 15:24:02.518 T:11776    info <general>: [plugin.video.themoviedb.helper]
ConnectionError:  HTTPSConnectionPool(host='webservice.fanart.tv', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /v3/movies/65?api_key=fcca59bee130b70db37ee43e63f8d6c1 (Caused by SSLError(SSLCertVerificationError(1, '[SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: certificate has expired (_ssl.c:1136)')))
Suppressing retries for 30 seconds

Is this a known problem with TMDB? Because I tried navigating to https://webservice.fanart.tv and Firefox indicated the certificate as valid (issued by Let's Encrypt).

Hi,

Scraping doesn't work in an automated way.

I have a collection organized based on the recommendation of Radarr/Sonarr and their affiliates:
Folder:

Code:

Title (Year) [IMDB ID] - E.g. 'Saturn 3 (1980) [imdbid-tt0079285]'

File: Saturn 3 (1980) [imdbid-tt0079285] - [WEBDL-1080p][AAC 5.1][x265]-Tigole.mkv
Either I use TheMovieDB move scraper or the Universal one, the arts cannot be fetched for almost all of them. There are some exceptions, like Aliens, but I can only see the thumbnail for almost all.
If I do a content change to None through Files, then in Settings a Clean library on Movies, then changing back the content type to Movies and do a refresh update on library, nothing changes. Still the same.
If I do a manual scan on an individual movie, the fetching works. Of course, I'd like to avoid doing this operation manually, expecting that there has to be a solution to it.
Thanks.
