TheTVDB: Does not find some Seasons > 4

Post by dazw »

Hi,

i am using the MS-Store Version of FileBot and i am up-to-date.

Today, i wanted to rename some Seasons of TWD and The Mentalist.

I tried to match with TheTVDB, but FileBot didn't find the right seasons.

The Mentalist S7 --> Season 1 (TheTVDB) <-- Wrong
The Mentalist S7 --> Season 7 (TvMaze) <-- Correct
TWD S7 --> Season 1 (TheTVDB) <-- Wrong
TWD S7 --> Season 7 (TvMaze) <-- Correct

I tried to rename Season 4 - 7 of TWD and only Season 4 has been recognized correctly.


TWD S4 - TheTVDB (correct)

Image


TWD S5 - TheTVDB (some correct)

Image



TWD S7 - TheTVDB (wrong)

Image



TWD S7 - TvMaze (correct, but not in my language)

Image


Is this information sufficient or is more needed?


Greetings, Daniel

I am also having a similar problem

Filebot doesn't recognize some episodes, but when i went to theTVDB website the episodes were there

Peppa Pig S06E23
Peppa Pig S06E24
Peppa Pig S06E25

Hey Duggee S03E07

However

Still open all hours S06 worked ok

Having a search of listings for episodes it seems like it is only offering up the first 100 episodes of each series

(using Windows 10 with the "Microsoft Store" bought version of the app)

I have been having the same issue, it looks like TheTVDB recently started to roll out a new version of their API which might be why issues are starting to show up.

I think TheTVDB went from one page to multi-paged responses of the episode calls, which is why people have issues with Filebot not being able to find all seasons for shows.
