  • Upgrade from LibreElec 10.0.4 on RPi4 to 12.? on RPi5

    As and when the RPi5 ships, I'd like to upgrade to that from my RPi4.

    Is there a way I can transfer all the settings and media catalogs to the new system which will be running version 12?

    I don't really want to have to reconfigure everything that has been done to the old RPi4 based system (if I could even remember what was done - I've had it for some years now).

    Thanks, David

    I deleted the directory under tvshows on the server, and recreated it. This time the debug log http://ix.io/3FTE shows something that may be helpful:

    Does that help you to guide me to a solution?

  • Not creating local entry for file on external media

    I have some episodes on my Linux server:

    This is shared to the Librelec/Kodi box using NFS at 192.168.129.100

    Looking at the NFS share from the Kodi box shows the episodes.

    Trying to Update Library for TV Shows doesn't update the local list of shows and episodes. Log file: http://ix.io/3FME

    The only line that I can find that appears relevant says:

  • TVShows cannot see files that are in folder (data scrape issue?)

    Problem still not fixed - nfs settings was a red herring.

    LibreELEC (official): 9.2.4 (RPi2.arm)

    LibreELEC:~ # pastekodi

    error=1 error_msg="Command not registered"

    Use 'vcgencmd commands' to get a list of commands

    http://ix.io/2DLL

    LibreELEC:~ #

    There's something going on with the meta-data scraping I believe

    It eventually shows two episodes (the first two in Season 1) but named very oddly "Mini Series Part 1" and "Mini Series Part 2"

    None of the remaining Season 1 episodes are picked up, and nothing from Season 2, 3 or 4 is found either.

    All the files are there and readable.

    It would appear the TMDB hasn't got the information about the series

    tvdb does appear to have the data.

    Battlestar Galactica (2003) - Aired Order - Season 1 - TheTVDB.com

    Thanks

  • TVShows cannot see files that are in folder

    Hmm I don't know why I said that setting all-squash on the share had fixed this. It hasn't - the problem is still there.

    The files can all be seen and read on the libreelec system on the RPi. but it won't update the show folder with the episodes. I still think this is something to do with the tvdb scraper, but what?

    How to fix???

  • TVShows cannot see files that are in folder

    Well now I had read the entire text, but I still don't quite see why all_squash should be needed in the case where the libreelec client could already read the files and directories in question given that the file permissions are: drwxrwxrwx for the directories and -rw-rw-rw- for all the files under them (IOW world accessible).

    However it is set and it appears to make the difference, and thank you for the solution

    However please could you put me out of my misery and tell me why it was necessary given what I said in the first paragraph of this reply.

  • TVShows cannot see files that are in folder

    I don't understand why you are talking about file permissions. The error in the log is:

    Code
    2020-10-29 15:10:14.991 T:1807721344   ERROR: CCurlFile::FillBuffer - Failed: HTTP returned error 401
2020-10-29 15:10:14.991 T:1807721344   ERROR: CCurlFile::Open failed with code 401 for https://api.thetvdb.com/login:
2020-10-29 15:10:14.991 T:1807721344   ERROR: Run: Unable to parse web site

    No complaints whatsoever about unable to read the files.

    And root can't create files there (at nfs://192.168.129.100/shared/tvshows) and never has been able to as the NFS share is read only (and always has been), and all other shows are finding episodes just fine.

  • TVShows cannot see files that are in folder

    As seen at the RPi in Libreelec - same as all other stuff under tvshows
