Hi guys,

Am i the only one experiencing that the "Use Disc data instead of Movie data" does not work in XBMC dharma beta 3? When i check the option i get a "Unable to connect to remote server. Would you like to continue scanning?"

My XBMC is running on a windows 7.

I can scrape just fine when i remove the check mark.

Any suggestions on how to solve the problem?

Cheers.

Btw... I'm using the latest version of the mymovies.dk addon (version 1.2.4).
I've attached the debug log from XBMC.

Seems something has broken in XBMC since the addon system. Settings marked as supposed to be URL Encoded (Language + Country) are not being encoded which results in fragmented urls without %20.

I'll see what I can do about it...

Thanks for your reply.

Yeah. Seems like you are right. When setting the country to "Denmark" (which has no spaces) it starts scraping. When setting it to "United Kingdom" (which has a space) it stops working again. Nice spotted.

You can make a temp fix by editing xml file and inserting %20 where the spaces are

So I will have to do a find/replace on "$INFO[country]" and replace with "United%20Kingdom" in the mymoviesdk.xml file?

While i have your attention...
How come the mymovies.dk scraper only scrape covers some times? Let me give you an example. When you search for "Runrig - year of the flood" in the "My Movies - Collection Management" it comes up with a cover. When you scrape info in XBMC using the "Use disc data instead of movie data" option checked it doesn't show up with a cover. It only scrapes the info.

"Runrig Year of the flood" is not to be found on IMDB, so am i not doing the right thing when i check that option?


I appreciate your help.

Cheers.

What you suggest will also work fine too.

Movie data should only be possible for movies with IMDb ID set. Disc data should work as far as I know. Brian must when why the API does not return cover for this particular movie. If you want to help find the https request in the XBMC log and paste it here for him.

This is the URL that XBMC calls:
DEBUG: FileCurl:Embarassedpen(061EF16C) https://api.mymovies.dk/Default.aspx?command=SearchDiscTitleByTitle&title=runrig%20%2d%20year%20of%20the%20flood&username=meggers&password=***************************&Country=United%20Kingdom&includeadult=false&includeenglish=true&locale=1033

It seems to be returning a thumbnail and a bigthumbnail URL but XBMC doesn't scrape neither of them.

You posted the wrong url. This is for the Search - not the Load function. Search in XBMC does not show any graphics (I've requested such a feature). Load is where data is actually loaded and graphics downloaded.

I'm not sure what to paste so I've uploaded a xbmc.log where i try to scrape both "Runrig year of the flood" and "Runrig Day of days". None of them gets a cover added. Only the information gets added to XBMC library.

Forgot to mention that both of them has a cover when you find them in the "My Movies - Collection Management" but none of them gets a cover added to XBMC library.

I found a few problems in the scraper which I've fixed;

1. Search results for Disc data was showing weird year containing imdb no. I fixed this and added country and edition to result. For this to work with folders they have to be named specificly like this 'title edition (country) (year)' NB! If no edition then there must be a double space.

2. No poster section for Disc data movies which did not have a Movie counterpart. I changed so scraper looks for the covers for Disc data instead. Should be more stable than looking for poster.

Please try it out and report back. I still don't have a solution to the spaces in languages and countries as this is a XBMC bug as I see it (I've trac'ed it). Once I have these two problems nailed down I will submit a new version containing also a Danish translation.

Good news. I fixed the missing urlencode of labelenums in XBMC myself. If you're building from source yourself, you can apply my patch which is available at the trac ticket; http://trac.xbmc.org/ticket/10572

If not you have to wait till it gets accepted and merged into Dharma which hopefully will happen.

NB! You need to reset your scraper settings for them to be saved url encoded.

Hi Bleze,

Thanks for helping. It's much appreciated.

I've done a little testing with the new xml file. I did a search/replace on $INFO[country] ones again. Here's what I've found out:

1. I did a scrape on two folders (using disc data): "Runrig - Day Of Days DVD" and "Runrig - Year of the Flood (DvDrip 2008 - oOCyberOo Torrent)" now they both gets a cover added to XBMC library. Great job!

2. I tried scraping using the new features you've implemented "title edition (country) (year)". The folder i tried scraping was "Cinderella Special Edition (United Kingdom) (1950)". Unfortunately it picks "Cinderella / Cinderella 2 - Dreams Come True". If i do a manual search for "Cinderella" it picks the correct one.

When scraping movies it doesn't show that weird imdb number anymore. Now it shows title edition year and country, so that part also works perfectly.

Unfortunately i don't compile from source, so i guess i will have to wait for the url encoding to be fixed in dharma beta 4. I can live with the search/replace workaround until then. Great job on fixing that problem too though.

Let me know if i can help you with some further testing.

2. XBMC does not support editions and nor does the My Movies API (to my knowledge). This means you need to keep the folder name convention as 'Cinderella (1950)' and/or put a .nfo file with the movie containing a IMDb url. If support is needed in My Movies you need to request this with Brian. Nothing more I can do here, sorry

That's okay. I don't need that feature.

New version of scraper/addon with these fixes are now in XBMC repository. To be able to use it from there, you need to have Dharma RC2 or newer.

Please try it out and report back if all is well :)
