RE: [Release] Meta video search addon - ed_davidson - 2016-07-15
Hi all,
Please can anyone help me with this script error. It comes up from time to time but really doesnt seem to effect the addon.
Thanks.

It comes up from time to time but really doesnt seem to effect the addon.Meta uses tvdb_id as tvshow-name in it's library functions. Looks like you either moved the library folder to a different location or moved some other addon's library function to the same location as Meta's library folder and the show "Dexter" got added in non-meta-compatible format (i.e. title instead of tvdb_id). Meta can't handle that and errors out. Solution would be to undo the moving of folders.

Is this add on still being maintained and updated? METATE/MIDRAAL where are you! Its all gone a bit quiet
I noticed a player update last night for Metalliq which has had all the names changed and that effectively blocks the use of 3rd party plugins to be used in the Meta add on. It even has a disclaimer saying these plugins will not work on the meta video addon!
Really?? I thought we all worked together to better a community not to block code from another.

Also MetalliQ has some extra parameters not available in Meta so not all player can work even after converting them properly.
Up to now, OpenELEQ was maintaining players for Meta as well but those repo's have been removed and a metalliq-player-repo has taken it's place.

RE: [Release] Meta video search addon - metate - 2016-07-22
I've been really busy in the last couple of months, still am.
I always said I would only work on it on my spare time.
Unfortunately, my daily work does not allow me to keep working on it as I want to.
As far as I can tell everything still works as expected, when things break terribly I will jump in.
Honestly, if I do have some spare time, I would prefer attempting implementation of features like automatic player generation rather than a 'mark as watched' within plugin feature (I personally only use Kodi's library).
Thus, If anyone wants to join as a developer (@GitHub project), please let me know - the only terms are to keep it legal :-)

Could you or OpenELEQ fork Meta on Github so that the MetalliQ changes to Meta can be added back into the main code?
I could really do with a version of Meta which can keep up-to-date with the latest players. I have a made a few addons that depend on Meta for playback.

RE: [Release] Meta video search addon - G0AT - 2016-09-28
I figured out how to fix the library issue with future unaired episodes that have blank dates on TVDB showing up in the library. It turned out to be very simple:
In resources\lib\tvdb_api\tvdb_api.py under class episode/def has_aired, change return flexible to return False
Metalliq has the same issue, and the same fix.
RE: [Release] Meta video search addon - loki131 - 2016-10-05
+1 for G0AT's library fix, I've applied it to both my Win10 and OpenELEC machine and it works perfectly! I for one would love for it to be merged into the main branch
RE: [Release] Meta video search addon - Elderberry - 2016-10-23
I dont see any live players at all in my meta config.
Is there a way to recover these as i have numerous add ons that supply. Thx
RE: [Release] Meta video search addon - moshep15 - 2016-10-25
well meta player is a nice soultion for searching sources in multiple addons but still very annoying when u need to create a player for every addon that came up and most of the time its not working.
addons changed very often and sometime blocking the search. well the meta idea is greate but need some improvment like an option in meta for what quality search i want under multiple addon search in real time.
today to search 1080p links i need to search for each addon separately and sometime that frustrating. a multiple search function by choosing witch addons will be searched and what quality will be played when a 1080p url will be found will played automaticly, i think that will improve kodi in many ways for easy life.

Meta would be a perfect solution to addon searches if Kodiland was truly a community.
However, you will soon learn that it is really lots of little fiefdoms that don't want to share their streams and code with anyone else, even if that means the users have to suffer.
Even addon devs that don't make any money from advertising block and obsfucate their code to stop people sharing it.
It sucks.

Loki messaged me that the fix for blank air dates was no longer working. For some reason, it won't let me respond to your PM, so I'll address the issue here.
You should double check the tvdb_api.py file. Chances are that the fix is no longer in place, as a new version of Meta (1.1.6 I believe) was issued at the beginning of February. Alter the code as before, and it should work for you.

You haven't quite got enough valid posts made yet to have the PM capability enabled on your account, although you are very close.

That's what I figured, thanks!
