Hi,
I'm a new user of MediaElch and I've got problem with Kodi synchro

I've tried to set log with advancedsettings.xml but it seems like MediaElch ignore mysetting (file advancedsettings put in application localdata or in application folder.

Hi,

thank you for reporting the issue. I'll try to reproduce the issue this evening. The sync feature is something that I myself haven't touched, yet. I'll look into it.

Thanks for you answer. But I could help you if I could activate log. So my first problem: using advancedsettings.xml param.

Can't scrape the imdb ratings for the show Mindhunter.
In season 1 MediaElch falls back to tvdb ratings and in season 2 it fails all together to find a rating except for episode 8,9 (tvdb).

Oh man... if it's a timeout again I'll loose my nerves

Thank you for reporting this issue. You didn't get any error message, did you? If not then I've missed something...

Update: This only occurs when I have chosen to "Update all episodes" it works when I choose "Update TV Show and all Episodes".

Thanks. I've got a suspicion what the issue is. May be related to https://github.com/Komet/MediaElch/issues/871
I won't have time to investigate this issue until next week, though. :-)

MediaElch 2.6.4 - Ferenginar
The next stable version 2.6.4 is finally here!
Blog Post: https://mediaelch.github.io/mediaelch-bl...ch-v2.6.4/

What’s new?
Four months since the last release, this version brings *a lot* of bug fixes and big improvements in error handling and reporting. Furthermore, we finally use the TheTvDb API v2!

Better Error Reporting
If an error occurs while searching for a movie or scraping a TV show, a message box containing the error code and message will be shown instead of just silently failing. This has been annoying in the past because users were not able to distinguish between network errors and MediaElch bugs. Many bug reports were due to a scraper being down or a provider's response time having increased.



TheTvDb v2
After more than one year we finally managed to update to TheTvDb API v2. This has fixed many issues that existed due to the outdated API.

Internal Changes
We further refactored our code base to make development easier. This however introduced other bugs which is why we had to postpone this release a bit. But we're sure that it's worth in the long run. On top of that we have to keep up with [Qt][Qt]. The latest releases of Qt marked more function *deprecated* and we therefore have to update those places in our code base that still use the old APIs.

What’s next?
We will continue to improve MediaElch. Stability is the most important issue at the moment as we had crashes and other issues in the last versions. We have to keep up with the Kodi NFO format which is why the next version will need some changes in regards to (multiple) ratings and so on.

Where can I download MediaElch?
Stable releases can be downloaded from https://mediaelch.github.io/mediaelch-doc/download.html
For Linux distributions we provide repositories for Ubuntu (.deb) and openSUSE (.rpm). If we're missing a Ubuntu or openSUSE version, please let me know. :-)
Chocolatey and Homebrew may take a few days until the new version is available.

Where can I get help?
For general question use Kodi forums, e.g.

- [German] https://www.kodinerds.net/index.php/Thre.../?pageNo=1

Hello @bugwelle

It might be a good idea to keep an eye on the following Issue as the <episodeguide> format will change with the introduction of the new Python scrapers. It is still a little while off, so no need to panic.

Thanks. I've added a tracking issue on MediaElch's issue tracker. :-)

I've been using MediaElch for quite some time for movies & TV. It is still my preferred MediaManager. Thanks for all the work that went into this !

I now started to play around with the MusicLibrary. Also for this I find MediaElch to be quite great.

2 small topics, though:

1.) Does MediaElch support the Artist Information Folder (https://kodi.wiki/view/Artist_information_folder). I searched but found no possibility to activate this anywhere..
2.) It seems that MediaElch does not fill the "Year" info for an album. I have tagged all my files correctly but the year field is blank in most cases..

Another wish: would it be possible to support the Compilation field ?

1) No. New Kodi v18 features have not been added, yet. The Artist Information Folder is not available. :/
2) mmhh... If I have a look at the code, the year should be printed. I'll have to look into that (not before next week, though).
3) I've opened an issue for that: https://github.com/Komet/MediaElch/issues/905
I'm currently working on some major internal changes which take a lot of work and time. Can't say when I'll be able to implement it or whether it is a lot of work (or not). :-)
