TVDB Troubles - Again

Filebot stopped negotiating with TVDB 10 hours ago and I wonder if this is the reason - or is it they're still 'working on something':

Also, apologies for adding a thread when this one already existed:

Yep, I thought my network was being troublesome some way, it ends up they switched to some new API and stopped using legacy code. I tried using the TMVDB Episode format but it's not good.

It is possible they still have the 'innards' in a bucket over at TVDB and this is temporary. Until we hear something official I am trying to remain.... calm.

I'm netting read timeouts as well:
Code: Select all
java.net.SocketTimeoutException: Read timed out
Not much we can do. Other than try again tomorrow. This kind of generic network issue is definitely a temporary one. Or use TheMovieDB
(TV mode) instead.

Ah... good news.
That means it's time to fire up COH2 for a few hours while we wait...lol
Thanks, Man.

Is FileBot on the new API?

They might have turned off something

Yes, but SSL changes would affect both v1 and v2 API clients. That being said, removal of legacy SSL versions won't affect FileBot, at least not recently (as in after ~2015) released versions, and the error would likely say something akin to SSL Handshake failed rather than Read timeout.

So, a quick F5 twice tells me I'm on 4.8.5 and all I need do is continue doing something else for a while...
OK... got that covered.

Okay, thank you for clearing that up. Seems then we just have to wait on TheTVDB end.

You could try configure
retryDelay and
retryLimit, so that it'll wait and try again later more often and longer:
Code: Select all
export FILEBOT_OPTS="-Dnet.filebot.CachedResource.retryDelay=PT10M -Dnet.filebot.CachedResource.retryLimit=5 -Dnet.filebot.logging.time=true"
FileBot 4.9.0 or higher is required.
FileBot will be running on your machine, mostly in idle state CPU wise, but in RAM. So if you use the settings from above, you might end up with a FileBot process waiting around for days until TheTVDB works again. This would be an easy but wasteful solution.

I found during the outage that if FileBot is unable to reach TVDB, shows are processed into Unsorted and added to the exclude list. Is there a way to have FileBot instead retry them later please?

1.
No, as that would require filebot to hang around forever. You can of course add your own macro-level retry behaviour that keeps track of things, and retries things as necessary.
2.
Yes, if you don't mind FileBot hanging around forever:
