Awesome job, thanks @zag, @enen92 and @peter0123


RE: [TSDB] - The Sports Database Video Scraper - zag - 2016-01-13

Great work everyone.

Can you get it up on GitHub so we can see the code easily?

I will have a look at some of your suggestions again, now the Add-On is released.


RE: [TSDB] - The Sports Database Video Scraper - schumi2004 - 2016-01-13

Thanks for this scraper, going to test and report any issues if found.
Also going to finish Sports Center for Aeon MQ6/7
Btw, Example File structure link seems to be broken.


RE: [TSDB] - The Sports Database Video Scraper - n1md4 - 2016-01-13

This is brilliant, peter, you know that from me already. Good work!

Noticed these links need fixing though:

Please update the example file structure link, I'm struggling to get it to work for my WWE library.


RE: [TSDB] - The Sports Database Video Scraper - zag - 2016-01-15

Try this link

http://www.repo-kodi.sem-one.de/alpha-tests/

The test file is called "Sport_EN_RDY.zip"

I have not had a chance to play around with it yet so can't help much sorry. If someone who gets it working could explain how it all fits together that would be great. A guide even better Smile

Thanks. he must have updated it since because I did check the root and all the folders.

I've just downloaded that .zip and it looks pretty self-explanatory, I'm going to give it a shot now.


RE: [TSDB] - The Sports Database Video Scraper - curswine - 2016-01-15

Looks to work fine, a slight bug is that you can't have extra numbers in the title. So Wrestlemania 31 whose suggested filename is 'WWE 2015-03-29 WrestleMania 31(.xxx)' didn't scrape but when I changed it to 'WWE 2015-03-29 WrestleMania(.xxx)' it worked fine.

Fanart and posters don't seem to be coming through but that could be because they're being scraped in TV show format instead of as movies which might accommodate different fanart and posters for each 'episode'. Thumbnails are scraped fine.

Edit: I've updated all the thumbs for 2015 on TSDB and I think it looks considerably better now.

RE: [TSDB] - The Sports Database Video Scraper - Ovokx - 2016-01-16

I have tested on my collection and works perfect on F1, which only have 1 file by episode, but it doesn't work on sports based on several files by round/episode such basketball & soccer. Any clue?

Here you can see an example of my current test file structure:

PS: NBA has being detected as TV show, but without any episode displayed on it


RE: [TSDB] - The Sports Database Video Scraper - curswine - 2016-01-17

I'm experimenting to see if I can find the right naming format for it.

It doesn't help that it takes forever to refresh data due to the NBA database being so large on TSDB.


RE: [TSDB] - The Sports Database Video Scraper - curswine - 2016-01-17

I think I've solved the problem.

Your file naming and folder structure is fine.

I discovered what the problem was by loading in the 'German Bundesliga' dummy folders and files and scraping them, seasons 12-13 to 15-16 all loaded fine but the ones before didn't scrape. Looking at the database I noticed the seasons that were scraped had round numbers inserted, I tested this by changing a round number in 11-12 and scraping, it worked fine.

So the solution is to add round numbers, but this seems bugged as I haven't been able to scrape games that have taken place on the same date or that occur in the same round.

Hopefully this shows the problem I'm encountering.

RE: [TSDB] - The Sports Database Video Scraper - zag - 2016-01-28

Does anyone know if there is there any way to get a poster episode view?
