Dan... I have developed issues with Ember.
Initially there was the imdb issue as i was using it to srape even TV Shows but it was missing lot of info and then stopped work altogether , I have updated from Git the latest but had to go back to tmdb scraping.
but what i have noticed now is that its just taking soo long to even do a simple task like editing an nfo, then it says task manager running and can take for upto 15 minutes ...scraping is soo painfully slow that I haven't been able to use ember. Also its starting to throw some SQL database errors ?
I am uploading the log
http://www.filedropper.com/2017-09-26
The Other issue is with command line scraping .The scrpits run and ember loads up but dosent scrape anything , no movie scraping and certainly not the tv shows ?
Please Help.
Dan,
I've just get the latest version nad I have problems with the Shows scanning.
In the begining it was NOT scraping episodes and season info.
Then I was able to get it scraped but it does NOT show the dialog to choose the fanar, poster etc...
it does just says "scraping" and shows the end summary.
It's not good. what am I doing wrong?
All the scrapers are active.
Also when I click on a series/season/episode it does not show poster, fanart etc...
This happens even in movies, ho fanart etc are shown. I upgraded from previous version.

Enable "Show Image Select Dialog while scraping" in Settings => Movies/TV Shows => Images.

Thx for the log.
One thing I've seen is that the scraper tries to get the plot from tha page "http://akas.imdb.com/title/0759364/plotsummary". That's wrong, the "tt" in front of the IMDB ID is missing. I think that's a bug.
Another error I've seen is a crash while parsinf the "Forced Title". That's also a bug that I've to check.
The SQL error is something that happens if the task manager is still running while you start another database function that is not handled by the task manager atm. This issues should be fixed after one of the next releases.
IMDB tv show scraper:
It's just horrible... I will remove the season and episode scraping in the next release and reduce the scraper to tv show information and episode rating only. IMDB has different episode numbers thanTVDB and TMDB in many cases. So the "comparer/combiner" of the multiple scraped data can't get a proper result and will discard the results. Also it so fu**ing slow to get all the data for a tv show. I think it's not really a difference if you get the episode information from IMDB, TMDB or TVDB. IMO the IMDB episode rating is the only thing that has a big difference from TVDB or TMDB.

ok, will do but why I do not see any image when I click on the movie/show on the main window?
Ok found all the checks - I would put them enabled by default... especially if upgrading

Thats not possible since you have added an extra XML layer for settings ;-) But I have fixed that already for Ember 2.0.

What about replacing IMDb with
OMDb API and if people want to use it they can get their own API key, using the IMDb number from that guys post above
That should be all the info they need. Thats if its even possible to use it
I just started using this and I noticed its pulling down images for every episode even episodes I don't have in the scannable folder. Is this Normal?
For Example
American Gods
/Season 1
American Gods-S01E01.mkv
American Gods-S01E01-thumb.jpg
American Gods-S01E01-nfo
American Gods-S01E02-thumb.jpg
American Gods-S01E02.nfo
If it isn't normal is there a way to turn it off? I don't have some seasons of some shows and I don't want to have 1000's of files sitting around for no reason as well. If I drop a file that isn't named exactly like the pre-downloaded images it duplicates the -thumb and nfo file with the new file that is uploaded.
Also is there a setting anywhere to tell Ember which way to name your files. For instance I know in the older versions you could use .tbn vs jpg and other settings.

OMDb is not for free. Why I should pay for informations that I also can get from other sources? Also OMDB works only for movies, or?
But the biggest problem is that TVDB/TMDB and IMDB does not use the same episode numbering, e.g. Spongebob on
TVDB and
IMDB.

No, that's not normal for episodes. Ember should only download the thumbs for local existing episodes. Only season images will be downloaded, even if you've no episode of a season (that should be changed in a later state).
Yes, you can add own file names under Settings => Movies/TV Shows => Files and Sources => File Naming. But *.tbn is really out-of-date. You can simply rename to files from *.tbn to *.jpg

Maybe i shouldn't have said replace but instead add OMDb. You wouldn't be paying if they didn't have their own API key they couldn't use it. It also does TV shows from just testing the example on the site

Oh yes, does also support tv shows and episodes. But I'm not interested to pay for a key only to code and support that API... even if I get a free API key ;-)
Mayby it's something that I (or another guy) will add later. For me it's really important to get the actual code stable as possible to release that damn version 1.5. I've started with Ember 2.0 more than 7 months ago and every time I'm investing in the actual one is "lost time". I've changed so many things for Ember 2.0 that it will be hard to move the latest changes from 1.5 to 2.0.
