It looks like there was a change at TMDB that now prevents that naming format to work... https://www.themoviedb.org/talk/5d6e0b02...3899882a75

Unfortunately the current XML scrapers probably won't be updated to work around this.

FYI, the future Python scraper has taken this into account... https://github.com/xbmc/metadata.themovi...on/pull/15

I appreciate the update. Thank you.

Scraper version 5.1.10 should now handle the articles in the end of title.

@Karellen
Confirmed. Using version 5.1.10, I was able to scrape information on titles with the article at the end (e.g. Dead Don't Die, The) with no issue. It appears the problem has been fixed. Thanks so much to you and the Kodi team for your help!

I just played around with scraping some STRM files exported from netflix addon.

Scraping works well including fanart.
But my skin is using the duration property to show when a movie or episode ends.
The scraper doesn‘t seem to set this property though that information is available in TBDB.

Could you please add that?

Sorry for quoting myself, but I just noticed that TMDB.org doesn't show the runtime for episodes.
For movies they do. And the scraper gets this information.

Is it correct that TMDB doesn't provide runtime for episodes?

Yes, this is correct. There is a runtime listed in the TV Show (not the episodes) and this is then applied to each episode in the show.

loeffelpan · 2019-12-18, 00:21

Well not really applied by the scraper.
Runtime label in Kodi is empty.
But maybe a show wide runtime wouldn‘t be useful anyway, because run can vary between episodes.

Any other suggention how to scrape runtime?

**Karellen** · 2019-12-18, 00:27

Kodi should read the streamdetails of the file and add the runtime per episode. What version of Kodi are you using?

loeffelpan · 2019-12-18, 07:01

That would be the way Kodi does for video files. Seems not to work with STRM files from netflix addon. Those files just contain a plugin path (e. g. plugin.video.netflix/show/123456/episode/56789).

Could kodi read details from such a stream? I‘m running latest stable 18.5 from ppa with Ubuntu.

loeffelpan · 2019-12-19, 22:13

I found a solution for me.
I use combined NFO.

https://kodi.wiki/view/NFO_files#Combination_nfo

Netflix-Addon provides those files. The scraper takes runtime from NFO and adds more information from TMDB.

Now just the media flag are missing, as kodi cannot read resolution, aspect or codecs from inputstreams.

Hello. I have a problem with TMDB scraper. Sometimes it works, but mostly it doesn't. I have a Movie Lucy . Named Lucy (2014).mkv. TMDB scraper doesn't see it. I tried different settings, RUS and ENG names, Creation an NFO file with a link to the movie at the site, but nothing helps. Is there any alternative scrapers or a solution of this problem? Thanks.

@P1zdat1y

Check here... https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=336969 and please provide a Debug Log which captures you trying to scrape the movie.

@olympia Is it possible to implement this? Should all languages available at TheMovieDB be available in the scraper settings?

@rmrector I note it is also missing from the python version of the scraper.

The language has been added. Update your scraper to v5.1.11
