Hi everyone.
The API's for InfoTagVideo and VideoStreamDetail were updated in V20 (Nexus)
A number of setters were introduced in https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/19459
It was found that there was some inconsistencies in the naming for these API's, and this was causing type error issues, as well as other inconsistencies. see https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/issues/22169
The following PR was merged after V20 Beta 1 was released to resolve the above issue - https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/22192
As these APIs were introduced in V20, we felt it was better to update them to be more consistent. This obviously breaks addons relying on member names that have been renamed.
We felt that doing this now, even though we are very close to final V20 release, was better, as otherwise we would have gone into v21, and immediately introduced backwards compatible API breakages.
We are sorry for the hassle this will cause you, but we hope you understand its for the greater good of your sanity come V21.
The demo scrapers were updated in https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/22192
I have submitted a PR to the
metadata.tvshows.themoviedb.org.python scraper - https://github.com/xbmc/metadata.tvshows...on/pull/94
If any other scraper devs have issues doing the changes, let me know, and ill look to PR any changes you need.
