@vbat99

In case you are not aware of changes at TVDB from 15 July. New v3 API followed by v4 API a few months later.

https://beta.thetvdb.com/blog/something_new

The endpoints are...
V1: https://beta.thetvdb.com/api
V2: https://api.beta.thetvdb.com

The new frontend is located at https://beta.thetvdb.com.

Odd, although they mention V3 API on their blog of June 13, 2019, there is no info on API V3 on their API documentation page. Only mentioning V 2.2.0

[Karellen]

Our plan is to launch both the new API and website on July 15. Please note that the V2 API will include an endpoint for movies, but support for all of the other new site functionality will be coming in future API updates

This is what TVDB state. Not sure how it is all working. Maybe "v3" and "v2 updates" phrases are being used interchangeably?

Thanks for the repost
For scraping of Movie sets you only have to enable that under movie preferences, scraper settings . to get the artwork you can choose to get that from fanart.tv or from tmdb . if you're just wanted to test I would disable getting fanart.tv artwork for Movie sets and just give it a try. It works I use it all the time

Ok, I found an error when the collection folder does not match the Collection name.
EG you have Ironman Saga, where MC was looking for IronMan Collection.

I have a fix for this, for the next release of Media Companion.

I’m not mad !!! Thank you

Hi !

I have another problem. I don't think it come from the software but i can't found what mistake i made in the naming or the hierarchical order.

I must say i have the problem only with this movie. I use the same process with all and only "48 hours" bug...

Here's a screenshot. When i search for new movie, the soft see "48 hours", use "48 hours 1982" and scrape "48 hours 1982 (1901)". Normal at this point, i have the same result with other movie. Then i use the 'Change movie' tab, find the right movie and click the Go button. Then i have this message (in red on the screenshot) but nothing happend. I must kill the process, 30 minutes waiting but nothing.

Have you an idea please ?

EDIT: Finally, i have the problem with all movies... Must be a parameter but cant see it...

Tested at my end, but no issue. Could be a language issue as IMDb is GeoIp enables, so I do not get the same results as you as mine is always english.

Although I highly recommend using TMDb as primary scraper not IMDb.

Try disable all movie filters (right click on movie filters, select configure Movie Filters, and disable all.)
Then do a refresh all, see if it appears int he list.
If not, upload somewhere and attach to a pm to me please.
Alternatively, open a discussion on sourceforge https://sourceforge.net/p/mediacompanion...n/general/
and attach the nfo for this movie to the discussion.

@vbat99 Do you think there is a chance that you have desire to implement the new KyraDB API artwork types? It's just for movies. 
ArtworkBeef implemented it in early July.

Kodi artwork type wikipedia also updated:
https://kodi.wiki/view/Artwork_types#characterart.23
https://kodi.wiki/view/Artwork_types#Animated_Artwork

It's just simple:
single artwork type: "animatedposter.gif"
both possible, single and multi: "animatedfanart(x).gif", "characterart(x).png"

animatedposter.gif

animatedfanart.gif
animatedfanart1.gif
animatedfanart2.gif
...
characterart.png
characterart1.png
characterart2.png
...

I really like the new features very much in ArtworkBeef, but i have to admit i always prefer MC for Artwork managing.
Would be really nice.

Not something I can whip up at this time. But I will add this at a later stage.
