EDIT- Never mind, the repo is out of date, manually downloading the script from github and installing it resolved the issue. Thanks for the help!

Ok the issue is probably the version of the cleaner. The version I'm pulling from the repo is 0.59 but looking at the changelog from github it shows 0.6.1 should be the latest version. I got install from the repo zip file located here: https://github.com/the-black-eagle/repos...blackeagle. Is there another repo I should use?

FYI, I have a issue with VDC (latest master)

When I use "deep clean" all videos multi part are remove from the library.

I have exactely 23 video multi part. All are remove 

eg : video "Apocalypse,, Hitler"

folder : / video / doc / Apocalypse, Hitler /
part 1 : -----------------------------------------------/ Apocalypse, Hitler-part1.mkv
part 2 : -----------------------------------------------/ Apocalypse, Hitler-part2.mkv

Deep Clean is a "Use at your own Risk" function, and marked as such.  It will aggressively delete from the database, so it will remove things like multi part movies etc.

Ok no problem.
It was to let you know in case this is not what is expected
thanks for your answer

I have try to use "Texturecache"
Nothing is happening. probably something wrong in my side. But I can not find.





I use a Nvidia Shield Pro 2019. All path seems good like that :

xml:
 <setting id="tc_opt_userdata_value">/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi/userdata/</setting>

<setting id="tc_opt_dbfile_bool">true</setting>

<setting id="tc_opt_dbfile_value" default="true">Database/Textures13.db</setting>

<setting id="tc_opt_thumbnails_bool">true</setting>

<setting id="tc_opt_thumbnails_value" default="true">Thumbnails/</setting>

<setting id="tc_opt_xbmc.host_bool">true</setting> 

All of this seems have no effect on "Textures13.db"
I have make test with an empty "Textures13.db" and nothing was added in "Textures13.db"

https://paste.kodi.tv/ovipiqaged

of course if necessary I will post a debug log

any suggestion are welcome
thanks

Code:

Running "texturecachepy c"
Running "texturecachepy p"
Running "texturecachepy P"
Running "texturecachepy Xd"
Running "texturecachepy r"
Running "texturecachepy R"
Running "texturecachepy qax"

Is this something that could be combined into 1 single run of TextureCache?

Hey, not without editing the texturecache.py code.  Currently it is written to run those sequentially.

According to the log you posted, there is nothing for the VDB to clean, and likly the texture.db had nothing to clean also.  The runs ran successfully.

I have run the texturcache.py many times and it rarely, if ever, makes a difference to the size of the texure.db, unless there was a major change to my sources etc.

If you want to see if texturecache.py does anything, you can select the option to pie the texturecache output to VDB logfile.

Well, maybe not all of them in 1 go, but perhaps you could combine some of them. It would require some knowledge of what TextureCache does per option, of course.

With the option to pie the texturecache output to VDB logfile make always the same almost empty log.

The only way for me for fix the launch of "texturecache" is to upgrade the version of texturecache 2.5.3 in VDC addon with the last version 2.5.4 of texturecache.py:
https://github.com/MilhouseVH/texturecache.py

Thanks to @Milhouse for this very great tools "texture cache" and thanks for you @kenmills to have keep VDC running on Matrix

Edit : Thanks to @black_eagle without whom VDC would not exist

Thanks very much for that - I will update the version in the VDC github now.

And a big thanks to you @"ellega" for your testing and assistance!

With this forum's help I have been able to get the add-on working, however I do have an issue that I can't resolve. I have two profiles to separate parent and kid's programs. I have the add-on installed on both profiles and it runs well, except for when it launches texturecache.

When it runs texturecache it tries to change the profile to "Master user" which doesn't exist so it fails. I was able to use a workaround by adding:

profile.name = Parent

to the texturecache.cfg file in the add-on folder. This works for the the Parent profile. Since there is only a single texturecache.cfg file that is shared by all profiles, I need to change it to profile.name = Kid's before I run it on the Kid's profile.

Is there a way for the developers to add profile support to this great add-on?

Thanks!

Thx for the info!  Will considerer it, and if I have time, will see if I can add it.

Nice job on this add-on.  Ran it for the first time ever with zero problems.  I'm using v20 Nexus.  Thank you for creating it.
