TheTVDB.com Scraper absolute_number for Anime? - acaranta - 2009-01-30 Hi everyone ... As I posted somewhere else in here, I tryied to code a scraper for anidb.net, but I couldn't find an easy way to do it .... But I found that TheTVDB had nearly anything I needed for my Animes ... except that, for example, Naruto was tagged with around 10 Season, whereas my files are tagged as a single season of 220 episodes .... I found (and read here) that TVDB was providing "absolute_number" which could fit nicely my needs ... So I modified thetvdb.xml to add an parameter "Force Single Season (use absolute_number)" which returns to XBMC that all episodes gathered from TVdb are in Season 1 and uses absolute_number ... And it works fine ![]() Shall I post it here or give it to someone to commit the changes after tests ? Or anything else ? ![]() PS : I just need some final changes to allow Single Season Animes to responds normally when The "Force Single Season switch" is active, but that's just for lazy people like me :p NB : Sorry for the ceretificate warning if it happens for the picture ![]() - acaranta - 2009-01-30 Of course this means that your anime episodes should be named "S01Exx" ![]() But that is really easy ! Or at least easier than going to rename as every seasons in tvdb. - spiff - 2009-01-30 trac please. and this is awesome ![]() the option should be named 'Use Absolute Ordering' though. also it should be fairly simple to hack episode-only expressions in there (to avoid the renaming) - acaranta - 2009-01-30 Please pardon my ignorance ... the url of xbmc trac ? ![]() - spiff - 2009-01-30 cleverly hidden as xbmc.org/trac ;P - acaranta - 2009-01-30 ok found the url :p so dumb on friday evening ![]() - acaranta - 2009-01-30 Wow ... err ... i'll search how to add asap ... because I have to go to a concert right now ... but normally before tomorrow it should be available (as soon as I'll know how to use trac ... I use subversion a lot, but never really used trac :p ) - spiff - 2009-01-30 basically CVideoInfoScanner::EnumerateSeriesFolder you need a new set of expressions that is to be run if all others fail - acaranta - 2009-01-31 Ok ... Patch submitted to TRAC : http://trac.xbmc.org/ticket/5804 I merged the changes from revision I had missed I changed the option name to "Use Absolute Numbering" And Commented the code within the xml. ![]() - spiff - 2009-01-31 r17482 - goku31640 - 2009-02-02 Quick question, how does this effect "Specials" Episodes that are named S0Exx, because those do not have absolute numbers, but are within the same folder? - spiff - 2009-02-02 afaik nothing change wrt to specials... - goku31640 - 2009-02-03 I just checked, Special episodes are ignored, so when adding by absolute number, Season 0 episodes are not added to the library. Is there any way to add them? - acaranta - 2009-02-03 Well ... This is my next part of "the plan" :p I want that when in absolute_number mode, the episodes without absolute_number should be returned with thier usual season numbers. Instead of being ignored. Which should mean S0Exx and S01xxx should be available ... I'll keep up asap ! - goku31640 - 2009-02-03 acaranta Wrote:Well ... This is my next part of "the plan" :p Sweet. I dont know if you read my comment before you posted that, but if you did then... alright I contributed a little to xbmc ![]() If not then ![]() But thanks for the Great work absolute numbering was a much needed addition to the scraper (i'm surprised it wasn't in there before) |
