A very important function of Extended Info does not work: "Use as thumbnail" and "Use as fanart".
Is there any chance to fix it?

OK I have a beta ver 6.0.8 on my github.  So far there isn't anything important in the beta but I will be working on an update.

A very important function of Extended Info does not work: "Use as thumbnail" and "Use as fanart".
Is there any chance to fix it?

TBH, I didn't even know that feature.  How did you get that?

In Extendedinfo no actor biography is displayed in the selected language, only in English.

I put in your fix, but note that if the requested language translation is not available, you will get "No information available".  There doesn't seem a convenient way to get a fallback for that.

"Use as thumbnail" / "Use as fanart"
This function appears as a context menu to a poster or fanart image. It allows you to select any fanart or poster in any language and use them as movie/TV show graphics in Kodi library.
Very useful functionality, I have been using it for many years.

I got the query "seasoninfo" to work.
I changed line 135 in version 6.0.7 or line 137 in version 6.0.8 in the file "windowmanager.py".

Original code (doesn't work):

Code:

season=max(0, season),

replaced with (works):

Code:

season=season,

What about changing it to

Code:

season=max('0', season),

season=max('0', season),

Yes, that works too.

I admit when I took over maintaining this, it was because I was using it in my Aeon MQ5 skin mods, so my testing was mostly in that skin.  I need to build a test window that can call all the entry points into the addon so I can do better testing.  That's what I am working on at this moment.

Aeon Nox SiLVO (little modified by me).

Titan MOD has complete video info support for "script.extendedinfo", so you can test everything and don't have to create a new test window.
With the latest update for omega from today.

OK I have been testing my dev version 6.0.8 and am getting ready to PR to the Kodi script repo.  The release version will be 6.0.9.  What is left is:

The problem is the query "seasoninfo" does not work and returns an error.

I see that the proposed mods will get past the immediate issue.  But the problem is  doing runscript with info=seasoninfo isn't documented in the readme,  so I have to reverse engineer what's going on.  I found that the underlying windowmanager method is called in couple different places.  I need to track down what those calls are doing so I understand the design prior to making a change.

I think I have fixed the other known issues.  Once I get this seasoninfo sorted I will post a beta version of 6.0.9 on my github that could be tested prior to submitting a PR to the Kodi script repo.  6.0.9 should work on Matrix -- Piers (I do my testing on Piers).  Pending placing a beta zip I do have a branch for 6.0.9 if you know how to use github branches.

Good work, the old version had problems with the correct recognition of TV shows, for example ("The Sopranos (1999)").
The recognition now works perfectly.
"info=seasoninfo" and "info=extendedepisodeinfo" now also work as expected.

Another tip for anyone who wants to update to the new version: make sure to check the language settings of the add-on after the update.
Otherwise there will be problems.

[scott967]

I could probably write something to migrate the language setting.  This is per current tmdb api which wants language as eg de-DE.  Might make a difference for things like pt-BR.  I don't know how internally tmdb handles language (like does pt-BR fall back to just pt).

I also now have all artwork set to priority setting language >> null >> en.

I haven't looked at language filtering for youtube.  Right now there is a limited list of language codes regionCodes hard-coded for the youtube filter.  It seems like relevanceLanguage is a better choice as a filter to me.  From google:

The regionCode parameter instructs the API to return search results for videos that can be viewed in the specified country.

The relevanceLanguage parameter instructs the API to return search results that are most relevant to the specified language.  Please note that results in other languages will still be returned if they are highly relevant to the search query term.

script.extendedinfo-6.0.9-beta.1 available as zip here:

It works, except for one thing:
In the search menu of the Estuary skin, ExtendedInfo is called up using the command

Code:

RunScript(script.extendedinfo,info=moviedbbrowser,search=True)

The virtual keyboard appears, but after entering a search term an error message from extendedinfo appears.
