Cannot Populate / Match Movies in Movie Sets - bzowk - 2018-07-05
Hey Guys -
After using Media Center Master for years, I recently tried out TMM and donated today as it's much cheaper than MCM despite missing a few features. I've also already updated the metadata for all movies already in TMM. There's one thing, however; I thought I'd get with the donator version which I either don't know how to use or it isn't working. Thought I'd post here to see what's up...
I have a large library including many movie sets with each set in it own unique folder structure. An example of the folder structure is below. Movie files within each folder are named the same as their immediate parent folder...
- Movie Collections
- Terminator Collection
- Terminator 2, Judgment Day [1991] 1080p
- Terminator 3, Rise of the Machines [2003] 1080p
- Terminator Genisys [2015] 1080p
- Terminator Salvation [2009] 1080p
- Terminator, The [1984] 1080p
I added the root "Movie Collections" folder as a data source and they all populated fine.
My Issue
In TMM if I go to the "Movie Sets" tab on the right, I see all my sets. If I choose "The Terminator Collection", it has a red X and lists 2 movies underneath. Right clicking and choosing to Search TMDB for movie set data makes another window appear which lists the result, all off the titles in the set, and a field next to each for "matched movie" which is blank and has been blank in all sets I've done this with. Clicking OK in this window then fills out artwork and metadata for the collection, but now the collection says there are "0 movies" in the set. Going back into the search window again, I cannot find a way to add a matched movie. Editing the movie set also doesn't list anything. I can confirm that all of the movies exist in the "Movies" tab and have been properly scraped. If I choose the option to "Find Movie Sets for Selected Movies", nothing happens.
How do I resolve this issue or is it a bug? Thanks!
P.S. Feature Request
The feature I miss most from MCM would probably take a lot to implement, but wanted to suggest nonetheless. Within it, you could select one or more titles then have a context menu option to have it search both usenet and torrent indexers for higher quality versions of the selected movie(s) and add them to your download client automatically. Just wanted to throw that in as if it's planned I'm with TMM for life
Thanks!

IIRC, the "matching" is done solely by IMDB id.
So please check, if your movies have them set.
Searching the web for updated resources is not the way we want to go...

Ahh - thanks...
I have been scraping with TheMovieDB as my default. Once I scraped the movie set titles with IMDB's scraper, then populated. Thanks again!
