How To: managing Movies consisting of two parts / discs - tom.58 - 2019-02-19

Hi guys,

I'm completely new to Kodi. I learned quite a lot about naming files, correcting scraper errors and faults and spent time studying the Wiki.

There is one thing that I 'm not able to manage at all .... Movies consisting of e.g. two discs ! Sorry, seems that I am too stupid to scrape these Movies...
How can I  add / integrate such a movie into the Movie-section of Kodi as one entry ??

This is how it is stored on my NAS: 

                NAS
                   |____[FOLDER] Movies
                                       |
                                       |____________[FOLDER]  Ben Hur (1959)
                                       |                                   |
                                       |                                   |____[FOLDER] Ben Hur (1959) Disc1
                                       |                                   |                  |___[FOLDER] BDMV
                                                                           |                  |___[FOLDER] CERTIFICATE
                                                                           |                 
                                                                           |____[FOLDER] Ben Hur (1959) Disc2
                                                                                              |___[FOLDER] BDMV
                                                                                              |___[FOLDER] CERTIFICATE
                                                                          

I always tried to add the folder "Ben Hur (1959)" and failed, 'cause the scraper could not find any media file in that folder....

Any help would be much appreciated

Please provide a Debug Log using this guide... https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=323719&pid=2665079#pid2665079

Ensure you capture the scrape in the log.

Thanks for reply !
Can't you just tell me the way how to add such movies ?


RE: How To: managing Movies consisting of two parts / discs - Karellen - 2019-02-19

What you have done in the first post seems right, so by providing the Debug Log, I might be able to see what is going wrong.

Without it, everything will just be guesses, which I won't do. I'll keep watch for the log.

 Here's the log ... sorry for delay, I'm not quite familiar with it and it might be a little too big. Just tell me then to provide another. Hope I did it right.

@tom.58

What is happening in your log is a bit of a mystery.

xml:
smb://THECUS-2-NAS-CM/CM/media/Filme - 0 - F/Ben Hur (1959)/Ben Hur (1959) DISC1/
This is your movie. For some reason the scraper is searching for the movie BDMV and comes back with this result... https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0250719/?ref_=ttrel_rel_tt but even scraping that movie fails for some reason.

That movie does not exist at TMDB, so it also returns Error 404's

I am not sure why that is going wrong. I have tested that movie, using the Universal Movie Scraper which you seem to have left all settings at their original default, and I had no problem scraping it using Bluray folders.

There are a few other attempts trying to scrape the movie in the log, but they also fail attempting to scrape unrelated movies.

Maybe the addon developer @olympia can see what is going wrong. Scrape starts at line 1641

Only on phone as away on holiday so can't easily read debug, but as a guess make sure Recursive is enabled in the Source settings, go to Set Content on Source to check settings.

 Yes it is enabled !
