So I have been following this thread with much interest because I think that this script is such a great idea.
Can anyone tell me what the final verdict may be? What do we have to do in order to get PseudoTV to recognize the duration of our video files? Do we have to let XBMC do all of the scraping and not use 3rd party tools at all? Do we ask the developers of scraper tools to add the extra tag <durationinseconds></durationinseconds> ?
What does this do to those of us that use Sickbeard and Couch Potato? Do we tell these apps not to make nfo files?
I don't think that any bugs that you may have found will be fixed until the next release of XBMC, even if a developer gets the urge to fix the problem, whatever it may be. So what do we do in the meantime?
By the way, thanks guys for all of the time and effort you are spending trying to get this ironed out.
I did a test where I had the nfo files added by Ember and then added them in. Still no duration update, but I just used the playlist trick to show all movies and show all episodes to update all the durations in streamdetails table. You just have to manually update the durations via the playlists.
Since I am not the only one having an issue with durations, I know it can't just be my system. I've performed pretty controlled testing to isolate the issue. I guess sranshaft has a special version. Wished mine worked like his, but it doesn't.
