Do you get any error messages?
I'm not aware of any changes in this regard, because the code hasn't been touched in years and is rather unrelated to any specific version of FileBot, but you're welcome to debug things to figure out what exactly stopped working:

Only thing about it in log is "Update MyEpisodes".
As for that script I'm not quite sure what to do.

You can set up a test case and then call the update-mes.groovy script directly. Add some println in between lines in the code. See what the request/response pairs say. Note that basic Groovy / Java / Web developer skill will be required to get to the bottom of this. Since page scrapers are involved, any change to the website may break things and require a rewrite of the scraper code to make things work again.
Note that the FileBot 4.9.1 / 4.9.2 update is probably not relevant in this case, even though it may have coincidentally stopped working one of these days. That being said, a simple test case is always a good idea to confirm this one way or another.

Hey Rednoah,
For those of us who love this functionality, but don't code... would love to see this working again

The code is 100% open-source.

This is totally out of the scope of my knowledge.
This was a great way to check that all I wanted was downloaded.
I will miss this.

I can confirm 4.9.2 does not work (ok in older Filebot)
looks like something with login part
the "session" does not contain __cfduid, PHPSESSUID and PHPSESSGID
I think this is = login not ok
on older Filebot, but still works
on 4.9.2

The script code does seem to handle cookies explicitly, and remains unchanged for years, so I don't see any clear and easy to fix issues there:

That's possible. You can add a few println statements to the script so we can see the cookies variable. That might give us a hint.

On a related note. Does myepisodes have some kind of basic API by now? The scraper is inherently unstable and best replaced if possible.

Adding
println session reveals that
login() just isn't called. Probably a strange Groovy runtime bug:
https://github.com/filebot/scripts/comm ... f0eec87bd6
e.g. this works now:
Code: Select all
filebot -script dev:update-mes Alias.1x01.mkv --def login=user:password

I had this info here, I just could not get the why and how to fix

Sounds like the "format is more strict = not working anymore" problem ?
anyhoo it works now
btw: you better change
http://www.myepisodes.com to

Pretty much. If you write weird code, then the technical debt collector will come to collect, sooner or later.

For some reason, it worked last night.
