I have gone through the sticky to make sure I am running the new version of TVDB on my nexus player but I have recently started having issues with TVDB not finding shows. Here is the log (removed).

Lines 5787-5797 are the shows I have recently recorded (20/20) but are not being matched within the database. Any thoughts on what is wrong?

Thanks

Hello sachel85

Thanks for pointing out the lines. Looking at the log, I am a little confused by your naming convention. Do you have any regex for your naming convention?

You have...

cpp:
15:45:52.481 T:18446744072865007984   DEBUG: OnProcessSeriesFolder - no match for show: '20/20', season: -1, episode: -1.0, airdate: '12/01/2020', title: ''

Important to note... /2020-12-08-2017.mp4.

Two problems...
1. You have confused the scraper as it is looking for an airdate of Dec 2020
2. The TVDB has named that episode as episode 50. So your file should be named 2020 S40E50 https://www.thetvdb.com/?tab=season&seri...1684&lid=7

Also, is this an existing show in your library, or are you adding for the first time?

Thanks for taking a look at this so quickly. Currently my naming format for that series is [TV Show Title]-[Month]-[Day]-[Year]. The one you referenced above should be 2020 Season 41 Episode 2. https://www.thetvdb.com/?tab=season&seri...0270&lid=7

Edit: Should I name it "2020 S41E02"? This is the first time I am trying to add it to my library.

Should I get rid of the Tv Show Title or spell it out "Twenty Twenty"?

Nope. TVDB has only two names for this show... 20/20 and 2020. If you change it to the word spelling, then it won't find it at all.

You need to change your SxxExx structure. On further investigation I can see that earlier seasons used the SxxEyyyy-mm-dd. But at some point that changed, so you have to follow and change as well otherwise it won't scrape. So change the name to...

2020 S41E02 and that should work. Try it with just one episode.

BUT.... you never answered my last question in my previous post and its answer will affect the scraping.

 Thanks. Renaming it like that and updating the library picked it up. I will adjust that in the script going forward. To answer your last question. I had the series 20/20 in my library but not that specific episode.

 Sorry. I will remove those on any future posts. Edited my original post.
