Around half of my movies are added to the library using stubs. Extracting metadata is therefore not possible.
I also have a growing number of .strm files.
I named all stubs in this format:
name.year.bluray.disc
name.year.3D.bluray.disc
name.year.dvd.disc
The .strm files are just named movie.strm.
I noticed following behavior for my stub files:
- When browsing the movie library no SD/HD or 3D icons are shown.
- Within "movie information" it shows the "Bluray" icon, but not "3D" (<-is this a bug?).
I assume that "movie information" reads/displays flags if there are no corresponding entries in the DB. But nothing gets stored in the DB.
I noticed following behavior for the .strm files:
- When i browse within the addon (Amazon in my case), SD/HD icons are displayed if I have opened the stream before.
- All metadata for this stream are shown from now on in "movie information".
- But when i add a stream to the Kodi library, nothing from the above works.
So I humbly request:
Is it possible to please add missing metadata to the DB via flags?
Please look into the metadata from streams. Extraction is obviously possible, but nothing is stored within Kodi library.
