LibreELEC Leia Alpha 8.90.005 - no way to rescan video with movie scraper
#1
Hi, I run perfectly LibreELEC 8.2.5 based on Kodi Kryton, but in parallel I'm trying to test LibreELEC Leia Alpha 8.90.005 (based on Kodi Leia Beta2).
I have a Wetek Play2 media player, and LibreELEC is running from the microSD card (not in NAND).
I'm not sure if this behavior is due to Kodi, to LibreELEC implementation or to the scraper the I used (Universal Movie Scraper).

Well, I set my video sources (movies are stored on my home NAS) , set the scraper (previously configured), and start the build the information movies' db. The scraper runs and, at the end it finds more or less the 95% of the info. 
With Kodi 17/LibreELEC 8.2.5, if the info for the movie are not found, I can recognize it because in the Video->File>Film folder I still can see the physical filename (e.g. Mulan2 (2007).mkv ) instead of the title found by the scraper. Then, I can select the file, click on the "show information" (I'm not sure if this are the right words in english, I used italian language for the UI) and the system ask me to replace the local info with info coming from Internet; pressing "yes", the scraper runs for this specific file and a list of candidates are shown. In most of the cases, with this procedure, I'm able to find the right info for the movie.

With Kodi18/LibreELEC Alpha, instead, if I select the same menu-item, the system tell me "no info for it" (or similar...). So there's no way to force and individual scan for a title.

How can I do it?

thanks

So... where do you want your answer(s)? In the Kodi or the LibreELEC forum? Several people work on both projects anyway.
Asking the same question in multiple forums at the same time may sound logical, but personally I find it annoying.

I'd say it's best to first ask the forum where you got the software from and wait. We respond pretty quickly overall.

Sorry, my fault!
I suppose that developers and testers teams for Kodi and LibreELEC are made of different people. And honestly I don't know "where" this problem is located (Kodi, LibreELEC, scraper add-on....)
Lesson learned...

thanks!

Here's my log
https://paste.kodi.tv/acezevoxaz

To simplify it I scan only the folder "cartoon" on my NAS. The Universal Movie Scraper catches the info for all the movies in the folder, except "Mulan2 (2004).mkv" and "Oceania (2016).mkv".
Selecting one of the two, and clicking on "Scan into Library", the popup dialog simply answers "no info found", not giving the chance to force a rescan. In previous versions of Kodi/LibreELEC at this point the digital keyboard appear, allowing to manually modify the name of the file to search for, in order to help the scraper to find the info for that file.

Hope it helps!
