themoviedb and year of the movie - Napkin4297 - 2022-12-11
I am looking at the kodi.log for some movies that do not get recognised by themoviedb. I can see the following log:
2022-12-11 12:53:26.681 T:5801 INFO <general>: [metadata.themoviedb.org.python]: Find movie with title 'Rob Roy (1995)' from year '0'
My question is how should the "year" get set for the python script to pass it to themoviedb? Is it a specific field in the mkv metadata?

Provide the full debug log and I'll have a look
RE: themoviedb and year of the movie - Napkin4297 - 2022-12-11
I take it you didn't want the entire debug log, just the relevant section. It is interesting to note that if I search TheMovieDB for the text "rob roy (1995)" or "rob roy 1995" it returns nothing. Only search text of "Rob Roy" returns anything and then it returns multiple entries.
Here is the extract from the debug log:

RE: themoviedb and year of the movie - Napkin4297 - 2022-12-11
I also had a look at the URL and "https://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/movie?api_key=f090bb54758cabf231fb605d3e3e0468&language=en-US&query=rob+roy&year=1995" does actually return a result

RE: themoviedb and year of the movie - Napkin4297 - 2022-12-11
I renamed the filename and no change.
Here are the logs:

Have you modified any regexes for Clean Strings? Have you modified any code in the scraper or any regex in Kodi?
I am at a loss as to why Kodi is ignoring the year. Your filenaming certainly does not help the situation. I have a suspicion you have modified a regex somewhere to overcome your filenaming.
Nor can I figure out why the scraper is creating multiple search strings to the API.
But at the end of the log, it looks like Rob Roy was scraped into the library.
RE: themoviedb and year of the movie - Napkin4297 - 2022-12-11
Yep I definitely renamed the file:
2022-12-11 18:07:32.753 T:994 DEBUG <general>: CSMBFile::Open - opened smb://USERNAME
ASSWORD@activenas/9_movies/DVD0001-1000/DVD0201-0300/Rob_Roy_(1995).mkv, fd=10002I haven't modified any regex. The only modifications to the system is to add mysql as a back end database. I have 2 different kodi's, running libreelec and they both do the same thing.
I can see in /storage/.kodi/addons/metadata.themoviedb.org.python/python/scraper.py:
if year is not None:
if not search_results:
search_results = scraper.search(title,str(int(year)-1))
if not search_results:
search_results = scraper.search(title,str(int(year)+1))
I thought this might explain the 2 lines in the logfile:
2022-12-11 17:21:12.109 T:9442 DEBUG <general>: Calling URL "https://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/movie?api_key=f090bb54758cabf231fb605d3e3e0468&language=en-US&query=rob+roy+%281995%29&year=-1"

It is almost as if year is not null, but has a non year value.
Do you know how year is extracted? Is it from scraping the title?
RE: themoviedb and year of the movie - Napkin4297 - 2022-12-11
I tried removing the path on the drive with the filename renamed and same result:
colufutigo.kodi (paste)
RE: themoviedb and year of the movie - Karellen - 2022-12-11
@rmrector any ideas?
RE: themoviedb and year of the movie - Karellen - 2022-12-11
@Napkin4297
I didn't think of this yesterday as I was ready for bed
Can you check item 1d here... https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=336969
If you enabled it, disable it. Then...
1. try rescraping and provide that log and
2. drop the mkv file into the Header Editor of MKVToolNix, go to Segment information > Title and post a screenshot of the Current value
Thanks
RE: themoviedb and year of the movie - Napkin4297 - 2022-12-12
Sorry for the delay. Got sidetracked. I turned off "Video file Tags" and this resolved the issue:
2022-12-12 21:54:55.253 T:1826 INFO <general>: [metadata.themoviedb.org.python]: Find movie with title 'Shark's Machine' from year '1981'
It now picks up the title and the year. Do you know if there might be an development to allow the correct year to be determined from the video tags?
Thanks for all your help, this was a tricky one.
