AMC not working (Anime)

Post by Asura »

first i have to apologize for my bad english, hopefully you will understand most of it.

I use the AMC script (untouched) and it works perfectly fine. it copies the episodes, renames them and creates the folder etc.
but Kodi only finds the series, the folder itself is empty. if i delete the nfo and let kodi search online for the data, it works.
shouldnt the nfo fetched by filebot contain the same content?

any ideas how to fix that?

edit: nfo: http://www.file-upload.net/download-104 ... w.nfo.html

The .nfo file looks fine. Any ideas why it wouldn't work? If you have Kodi generate .nfo files what's the difference compared to the ones generated by FileBot?

i dont have much experience regarding kodi or htpc´s stuff in general (got my first htpc 3 days ago), therefore I have no idea why it doesnt work.
I exportet the nfo from kodi. It looks different but thats all that i can tell.

Kodi exported nfo: http://www.file-upload.net/download-104 ... r.nfo.html

That .nfo looks wrong. There's no <id> field. I suppose you're using a non-default scraper? The .nfo created by FileBot is referencing TheTVDB and will work if you use the TheTVDB scraper (assuming <id> is correct).

you are right, there was something wrong on my end. it worked, after i deleted everything from my test drive and set up Kodi again.
but now i have some new problems.

1) the folder name of the series and the episodes are named in romanji japanese (primaryTitle @ AniDB) as they should be (Junketsu no Maria), but
in Kodi the series name is in english (Maria the Virgin Witch). is it possible to change that?

2) FileBot creates a folder for 2 different seasons. see the images below
input: http://fs1.directupload.net/images/150315/ujs6rt8l.jpg
output: http://fs2.directupload.net/images/150315/6f28hwwk.jpg

Episode 1, 5-7, 9 and 11-12 are stored in the first folder
Episode 2-4, 8 and 10 are stored in the second folder

It works fine with Kodi, and Kodi only shows one folder with all the episodes in it.

3) The Production Studio isnt right. it shows the broadcasting station.
looked it up on AniDB and it probably should show the "Animation Work".

1.
The default anime format uses {primaryTitle} and not {n} because the primaryTitle is usually what works best with AniDB scrapers.

2.
There's two different shows, and the first one has 12 episodes and the second has 10 episodes.

3.
Example? Format? Actual output? Expected output?

1) Den {primaryTitle} möchte ich ja haben. Der wird allerdings nur für den umbenannten Serien Ordner und die Episoden benutzt. In die nfo
wird hingegen der englische Titel geschrieben. Somit bekomme ich anstatt von "Junketsu no Maria" ({primaryTitle}) den englischen Titel "Maria the Virgin Witch" angezeigt.

Wird der Titel über TVDB bezogen? Wenn das der Fall sein sollte, lässt sich das ändern? Oder gibt es eine Möglichkeit an den rot markierten Titel zu kommen, siehe Bild: http://fs2.directupload.net/images/150316/fxv2fpqi.png

2) Richtig, es gibt zwei Seasons des genannten Anime. Ich verstehe nur nicht warum die Episoden aufgeteilt und in beide Ordner verschoben werden.
Ich habe nochmal 2 Bilder mit dem Inhalt der Ordner gemacht:

Input : http://fs1.directupload.net/images/150315/ujs6rt8l.jpg
Output: http://fs2.directupload.net/images/150315/6f28hwwk.jpg

Inhalt vom oben stehenden Ordner: http://fs2.directupload.net/images/150316/fzw9t4k6.jpg
Inhalt vom unten stehenden Ordner: http://fs1.directupload.net/images/150316/lyl5cjve.jpg

Müsste FileBot nicht alle Episoden in den 1. Ordner verschieben, da keine für den 2. vorhanden sind?

3) Im ersten Bild siehst du, dass Tokyo MX als Studio in die nfo geschrieben wird, dass ist wie gesagt nur der TV-Sender auf dem die Serie ausgestrahlt wurde. Das eigentliche Studio, welches für die Produktion verantwortlich ist, wäre "Produktion IG". Das richtige Studio wird bei AniDB unter "Animation Work" angezeigt, siehe 2. Screenshot.

1.
I see. The *.nfo files are created with TheTVDB or TheMovieDB data. There's no special Anime support for that.

2.
I guess it simply can't decide between the two shows, and all things being equal, which one gets picked in the end is basically random. The GUI shouldn't have this issue since the GUI will ask you to select the right show. If you're using the CLI you'll have to use --q or --filter to nudge things in the right direction (see FAQ).

3.
It's different because the *.nfo is based on TheTVDB data.
