Hi,
I don't understand why the Simpsons is no longer found in my database. 2 weeks ago everything was fine. I then searched my series folder for new content and since then they have disappeared from the database and I can no longer add them.

Can anyone help me and tell me what could be the reason for this?

I have never created a tvshow.nfo on the hard disc or in the folder.

Full debug logs only please.

Delete your tvshow.nfo file and follow the "How do I fix my scraping in the mean time?" section in this link... https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=370489

where should the tvshow.nfo be located? i don't have any in the folder and the data is then all saved from the scraping in the mysql database.

Ok, ignore my previous comment.

The issue is related to MySQL and the error is on line 902 where MySQL is rejecting the tvshow scrape.

The problem is this issue... https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/issues/15768

All the scrapers were fixed for this issue, but something seems to have happened to the TVDB v4 scraper where it is scraping too many artwork links for MySQL. The problem needs to be reported to TVDB.
MySQL can accept 65,536 characters, but the scraper is downloading 116,692 characters worth of links.

Here is the tvshow scrape for the Simpsons in the form of a NFO file.
I have removed the artwork links so you will have to download your own artwork manually (episodes will still have artwork)... https://paste.kodi.tv/viqanebazu
Create a file named tvshow.nfo and place it in The Simpsons root folder. Save the contents of the above paste into the nfo file.
Try scraping again.

I've reported the problem to TVDB and they are looking into it.

Is there any news here yet? because I still can't load the simpsons into the database. Even with version 21 of Kodi it doesn't work.

Nope. It is out of our hands. It would help if you lodge a bug ticket at TVDB.

Maybe my post here helps... https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid...pid3190702
