I had the same trouble with my Raspberry 3 Model B. On Libreelec 9.2.1 scraping of TV Shows using TheMovieDB (TV Shows) did not work.
I downgraded to 9.0.2 - scraping works....
Thanks for sharing that info, I'll try that.
update: I installed 9.0.2 and the scrape is still finding the wrong show.
I even tried renaming my seasons from season 1 to Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan - Season 1 (did the same for season 2) and it didn't scrape at all. I think I'm going to give up.
Sorry for muddying the waters by bringing up the movies.
My one and only question is regarding how to fix the issue with my tv show not scraping properly. I browsed the tvdb support forum and there were similar threads and the responses indicated that there's nothing wrong with their scraper, it's the program being used that is having the issue.
Based on my most recent log, did I do anything wrong or is there a setting I can change in order to fix this problem?
I set it up exactly as you instructed - Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan/Season 2/Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan - S02E08.mkv
I created a Season 1 folder as well and renamed all my files to match this format. This time, the scanning is taking place but it's finding the wrong content. I first tried the movie database and then I tried TV Maze.
Now I'm really confused.
Here's a new log - http://ix.io/2eTz
It's finding a show or movie called Sweet season. I've also tried The TVDB & XEM and they all find the wrong show. I think some other setting must be incorrect.
update: It seems that movies are scanning correctly. The only difference is that I didn't change any of the movie names and I scanned my entire movie folder instead of scanning a specific folder for a TV show.
Thanks a lot for your help. I haven't tried this yet but I can't believe this is the reason. lol
Just to confirm, changing the file name from Jack Ryan S02E08.mkv to Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan - S02E08.mkv is all I need to do? I didn't think it mattered and I had also followed the naming convention listed in Kodi's wiki. Also, wouldn't the apostrophe cause problems?
I'm going to try this and then let you know if it works.
Thanks again for your help. I had spent at least 4 hours trying to figure out what the problem was.
Hi,
I'm using the original Raspberry Pi B version and I'm having trouble populating my home page with tv shows. I go to files, add videos and then find my tv show from the external hard drive connected to by Pi.
I set content to TV Shows and use The TVDB. It shows that it scans my tv shows but when I go back to the home page, nothing is there. I checked the event logs and there are a bunch telling me that the tv shows failed to scan to my library.
I thought it was a problem with the naming convention so I changed the names to this format - The Show S01E01.mkv
Kodi's wiki indicates that this is the proper naming convention. I tried again after I changed the names of all my files in my 1 tv folder and the same thing happened - nothing was transferred to the home page and more event logs telling me it failed to scan to my library. I can't figure out what the problem is. Can anyone help?
Thanks.
