The Fetch artwork and Export NFO files post-processing features now use TheMovieDB as primary database. That means it'll always work for TheMovieDB matches, and may or may not work for matches with other database depending on whether or the external database ID has been added to the TheMovieDB record already. Missing external IDs are usually only an issue for new or less popular TV shows.


:?: Which specific series / file name doesn't work?

:idea: Previous versions relied primarily on TheTVDB, which meant that only TheTVDB always worked, and that TheMovieDB never worked at all.




EDIT:

FileBot r9134 improves support for merging TheMovieDB and TheTVDB series details from different sources if necessary.

Hi, thanks for the reply.
It´s don't work with a lot of series, not only new one.
i.e: Ghost theater (2015), Felix (2018), Fortunata y jacinta (1980)
All of this, work with themoviedb as you said but not with thetvdb as data base.

is there any way to do only the post process?
I mean, can i rename with my script (with thetvdb as db) and after this, do the post process with themoviedb without change?

Wich version did the change? Can I do a downgrade and it'll work?

Thanks a lot for your help.

Yep, never heard of Ghost theater (2015) or Felix (2018) or Fortunata y jacinta (1980) so there's a good chance that External IDs is not maintained well. Ghost theater (2015) was indeed missing, and I've added the missing ID now. The other two should work though... I'll look into it.

Yes, you can apply post-processing features on previously processed files. Please read Apply Post-Processing Features via Filter for details:

Please try the latest beta to see if that one works better for you now:
