how to scrap episode that are combined in a single mp4 file
#1
is there a solution to scrap correctly a file like this :

Dora - 2 -tous à laplage - Hic boum hooo.mp4

correponding episodes are :
https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/79-dora-th...uage=fr-FR

and

https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/79-dora-th...uage=fr-FR

I guess it is not possible to tell the scraper that 2 episodes are stored in the file, right ?

anyway if I want to tell the scraper there is only one episode what is the format ?

dora.saison1.episode2.tous à la plage ?

Maybe I can use also a .nfo file for this ? is it possible in the .nfo file to use image from a imdb website as cover even if I set myself the title ?

thanks I just try something simple :

Dora l exploratrice S1.E3.mp4

to have this one :

https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/79-dora-th...uage=fr-FR

but what kodi takes (with default scraper) is a dragon ball episode...

any idea ?

Please show me on the wiki page where that is a recognised numbering expression.

Also provide a Debug Log which captures you scraping the show.

Thanks a lot for providing me the correct syntax to indicate that the file contains several episodes but I still have the same problem here as the scraper think that "dora l'exploratrice" is equal to "dragon ball" ! my childhood is ruined Wink

please also note in the log that there is no mention of a .nfo file whereas I put one in the directory... another try with nfo file works. but I have 2 others nfo files that are ignored. I don't know why

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
<episodedetails>
    <title>Hic boum hooo and Tous à la plage</title>
    <showtitle>Dora the Explorer</showtitle>
    <id>tt0235917</id>
    <uniqueid type="imdb" default="true">tt0235917</uniqueid>
</episodedetails>

Save that as .nfo

Don't worry, it won't be for long. But I need the full Debug Log thanks. This time, delete the Dora TV Show from the library, then rescrape the whole show. Make sure debug mode is enabled like in the last log.

There are two reasons for this- 1. bad naming and 2. wrong file encoding.

Please provide a screenshot of your Dora folder so I can see the episodes and the nfo files and any other files you have in the folder.

concerning nfo files problem :

I have 4 files :
babar en famille DVD1 (2011).mp4
babar en famille DVD1 (2011).nfo
babar en famille DVD2 (2011).mp4
babar en famille DVD2 (2011).nfo

=> scraper recognize only DVD1. DVD2 is ignored.

if I replace :

"babar en famille DVD2 (2011)" in "toto2 (2011)" (without modifying nfo file content) in the filename :

babar en famille DVD1 (2011).mp4
babar en famille DVD1 (2011).nfo
toto2 (2011).mp4
toto2 (2011).nfo

then DVD2 is correctly scraped and I have

DVD1 and DVD2 in my library.

all these files are in same directory.

strange, isn't it ?
