[RELEASE] Library watchdog

Care to post userdata/addon_data/service.watchdog/settings.xml ? There's only 3 reasons it will halt a clean (which is what your previous log showed): xbmc is playing something (which it don't), it's already in the middle of scanning/cleaning (which it is not), or the setting evaluates to false.

The same with me.

It always tells me that it couldn't watch storage/videos.
On this Path i mounted my NFS-share from my Synology-NAS.

Anybody got any idea how to fix that?

hm. do you mean "/storage/Movies/TV" (why tv inside movies btw) and "/storage/videos", because it won't watch directories that don't exist. (but this part haven't changed in the resent release so that's weird). Otherwise the reason for not watching will be in the log.

Sure no problem. I actually looked in there myself but I cant make it what would be wrong.

My directories do indeed exist. It has always been setup this way and always worked.

Inside that folder called "Movies" reside "Movies1, Movies2 etc, as well as TV1, TV2, TVDocumentaries etc. It is setup this way because I use 1 folder on my main PC called "Shares" for all my HD's.

How to I check the logs.

ok, so I just sat down and spent some time with this. Here is what I have noticed so far.

I can drop a file in TV2 and all my Movie folders and watchdog works. The only folder that it chooses to not scan is the folder called TV.

Update:
Another thing I have noticed (in all skins) once the latest version of watchdog is installed, I can no longer reboot. If I switch back to 0.63 version everything works great.

I just find it very strange that It will update anything that goes in, but won't update when I delete a file.

i mean /storage/videos. Thats where i mounted my NFS-Share.

The NFS-Share is from my Synology-NAS an is mounted on startup with the following command:
mount -t nfs 192.168.3.30:/volumeUSB1/usbshare /storage/videos -o nolock

Any Ideas how to fix this?

BTW: I remember that before i updated watchdog to 0.7.3 it worked perfectly. Does anybody have the zip-File of 0.7.2 so that i can downgrade?

I have exactly the same errors in my log since the addon got upgraded tonight (pop-up telling me that it can't watch any of my NFS mounted folders).
I also have a Synology NAS, but all was working fine with watchdog until the last update.
The Python error message "UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0x.." seems to say that the problem is in the encoding of some path/file... but I didn't change anything in my shares recently, and I am pretty sure that everything is in UTF-8.

And I see that everyone has their data in /storage... I guess that all of us seeing the problem are using OpenELEC then...
Perhaps the problem is between the new Library Watchdog version and the OpenELEC Python libs ?

Yep, seems to be OpenELEC related : http://openelec.tv/forum/90-miscellaneou...tdown-prob

I see what is going on here. I have the same problem on my OpenElec box. Either we've encountered a python bug or I understand nothing.

The python docs clearly states http://docs.python.org/2/howto/unicode.html
Quote:Functions in the os module such as os.stat() will also accept Unicode filenames.

However:

Reply
So why not just put it back the way it way before? Everything worked fine then. Or is this update/changes absolutely required for Frodo?
Reply
Because it was actually broken before on systems using some of the more obscure encodings. It just happened to work because your filenames were utf-8 encoded. Need to think about what to do. Network shares still works so I can always use the walk function from that instead of python's walk.

No problem. Thanks for all the hard work you're putting into this. It is greatly appreciated.

Python (2.X) + unicode has always been a pain in the *hum*... Big Grin
Can I ask you how did you change the locale in OpenELEC ? I googled but did'nt find anything useful...

Thanks !
