Kallita Wrote: When scrapping for multiple movies at a time- using only the name and date- none of the movies are being found or scraped.
When going through the same movies individually afterwards they are all found and scraped without a problem.
It has been happening for a few versions now, but not sure when it started.
Is this specific to a movie scraper (e.g. TMDB, IMDb)?
My apologies for the delayed reply. finally got some movies I could test it on only to find that I was once again struck by the "I am getting old" bug.
For some reason I had the "only update movies with imd...." turned on , and it was skipping everything. once I turned that setting off they were being scraped just fine.
BTW I use the tmdb for scraping 95% of my stuff.
Thanks for your time and program.

I guess it is safe to say after this long that the previously reported issues won't be resolved any time soon?

Thank you very much for coming back to me. I, too, was busy the last few weeks and didn't look at the Kodi forum. :-)

Hi,
sorry for the delay. Should be fixed now. AllMusic changed their website layout (again).
The next nightly version will contain the fixes.
Btw: Most often, I simply forget about these issues. As in this case, I was sick for about a week, didn't look into it, and then saw a dozen new reported issues that I wanted to address. You can ping me more often, if I don't respond after 1-2 weeks.
Regards,
Andre

Thank you for the upcoming fix.

RE: MediaElch - MediaManager for Mac/Linux/Win (with music library scraping) - Kallita - 2023-12-11
And I am Back(sorry)
Have run the 10.6 for a little while now, and although it is better there are still some problems that I have encountered.
In tv shows and movies IMDB is not returning anything.
and - the problem I was encountering with the multi-scrape in TMDB where it would not return anything via multi-scrape but would find when scraped individually has returned.
right now I am getting no matches using multi-scrape with TMDB or IMDB weather save only with IMDB ID is switched on or off.
One thing i did notice was individual scrape removed all the . from the title where in the multiscrape they were not removed.
also for me: the program will take its time when downloading pictures from the sites.... sometimes it will require a few clicks to get it to wake up and respond.
Minor: after a scrape sometimes the title on the list on the left side is not updated until I have clicked on another title.
Using TMDB and mostly standard settings.
AS always appreciate your work, and hope you are feeling better.

ps..... something that has been a minor inconvenience for many years but nothing major to worry about: when I open concerts it list z-a with no apparent way to alter the order of the list back to a-z. just throwing that out to see if something sticks
RE: MediaElch - MediaManager for Mac/Linux/Win (with music library scraping) - Kallita - 2023-12-15
More info:
IMDB tvshows seems to be working now. May have been a glitch on my end.
IMDb movies is odd. if I search with name and date- eg. wrath of dracula 2023 - I get no results.
If I search with just title: eg. wrath of dracula it will find Wrath Of Dracula (4398) .
The (4398) appears in the brackets of all results no matter what title I search for.
YMMV

Dear macOS users,
there are major bugs in the latest MediaElch version for macOS 11 and later. The Qt version I'm using (6.6.1) has some major issues, which results in MediaElch being unusable in some scenarios.
I've prepared a version in https://mediaelch-downloads.ameyering.de/snapshots/macOS_11_or_later/ that uses Qt 6.4.3. That version does not have those issues.
Users using the Qt5 version for macOS X are not affected.
Regards,
Andre
-----------
@Kallita Thanks. MediaElch uses IMDB's search feature, which is... not that good. Adding or removing years, brackets, parentheses, etc. can have significant impact. :-(
Concerts aren't sorted at all, it seems. It appears to be "first come first serve" after scraping for concerts.
RE: MediaElch - MediaManager for Mac/Linux/Win (with music library scraping) - Boulder - 2024-01-22
I've been testing MediaElch to see if it could replace Ember Media Manager, which seems to be mostly abandoned these days. Movie related things seem to work fine, but TV shows are having problems..
I've removed all the NFO and image files to make sure ME starts from scratch. Then I reloaded the TV shows and get them listed in the application.
I have some questions and suggestions after working on the shows:
1) Is it so that there is no sorting method for other items than movies?
2) Scraping multiple "new" shows seems to be impossible because the entries don't have any ids yet. Would it be possible to search for the title like when you select just one show to scrape? I have 97 entries in the list so it's quite cumbersome to go through them one by one.
3) When you have scraped a TV show and get all the data for the seasons and episodes, why does the Save functionality save only the selected item, like the top level entry, but not the changed episodes?
4) It would be useful to have a sync option in the right click menu for an item (TV show, movie etc.)
Thanks for any input!
RE: MediaElch - MediaManager for Mac/Linux/Win (with music library scraping) - Boulder - 2024-01-23
Also, how do you update the ratings for episodes in one go? If you right click on the TV show and use Load information, it will not update them at least in the case where I have had to add the IMDb ID afterwards and set the scraper to use IMDb for ratings (for example in case of Sherlock Holmes (1984), which is split into different TV shows in IMDb). I have to use Load information episode by episode. Selecting multiple episodes and using Load information causes an error "Skipping show "%1" because it does not have a valid ID."
