[6.0.3] Trakt for MediaPortal [2020-01-01] (3 Viewers)

Re: [1.0.3] Trakt for MediaPortal

ajs, those logs are not debug. To enable Debug logging follow these steps:

1. Enter MediaPortal configuration
2. Under General, select Debug log verbosity.
3. Press OK.

You can also use the MediaPortal-Debug-Mode shortcut in the Start Menu. This generates a zip file of all logs in debug mode.

Anyway, from those normal logs I could see that the information for those movies is not complete e.g.

Sending movie to trakt library, Title: Пол: Секретный материальчик/Paul (2011), Year: 2011, IMDB: unknown

The best way to get a match is to have an IMDb id for your movies, I see quite a few as unknown in your collection...this might have something to do with your My Videos scraper.

If you dont have a IMDb id, then it falls back to using Title+Year. In your case above, Year is correct but is not correct for Title. 'Paul' is the movie name and not Пол: Секретный материальчик/Paul (2011). So you could either find a better My Videos scraper, the default IMDb one is very good or you can edit your titles so it has just the original english name for the movie. I think updated scraper is the best option.

in debug mode

This isn't Debug, Debug includes all the json requests and their uris. Can we get it in Debug please (you'll need to load Mediaportal again to remake the log and hopefully get the same error, once it's set in config)

Re: [1.0.3] Trakt for MediaPortal

Since I Russian-speaking, all the movies in the library have names like "the Russian name / original name (year)" for the Russian film "Russian name (year)" so I set up a library and many others.
imdb I do not use. But the original name of 100% corresponds to the name on imdb.

Maybe it makes sense to add a setting like:
[X] Ignore all the split [/]
[X] Date format ([] 9999 [)]
separator is edited, the brackets in the year too.
I think that it only needs to plug-in MyVideo

For trakt to recognise (the web backend) it either need the exact Title and Year combination (as seen on imdb) or the corresponding imdbid otherwise it's disregarded as it can't be identified.

Unfortunately if we begin to start handling everyones naming schemes 90% of the development time would involve creating new rules for each individual, when the plugin has nothing to do with database building (i.e. it's not MPTVSeries or Moving Pics). Trakt is simply there to provide the functionality of trakt, (scrobbling and with the gui the trending movies etc.) and to do this it relies on other plugins to do the scraping and title detection.

Re: [1.0.3] Trakt for MediaPortal

For non-English speaking people, the name in English is difficult to understand and find. Therefore, we use alternative sources (the script Kinopoisk, but all within the capabilities Medaportal). The more so because almost all trakt my library synced (except for Russian movies, that is, those who have no English name). Make the setting is not difficult, and if desired, all will be able to adjust his or her library for this pattern, especially since the script Kinopoisk just as well adjusted as they are very many.

With the series then this is no problem, everything syncs and works: (

My point was more that it's not Trakt's responsibility to do this. If you are using other sources that's great, tell us what you're using and how we can support it, but to support it we either need to be provided with with the imdbid or the english title and year combination.

When Trakt does it's processing it's not done by the filename but the information that is provided by one of the plugins that we currently support. Whatever plugin you are using needs to be supplied with the information that we require in order to pass it on to trakt, so you either need to fill in these missing details with your plugin somehow (I'm fairly sure this is can be done manually in Moving Pictures via the config, but don't quote me on it) or tell us of another plugin that will provide the needed information while allowing you to have the movie titles in whatever language you desire them to be and we will look into supporting that plugin.

Sorry these isn't much else I can do, Trakt isn't a plugin that will manage your movie or tv show collections, it's just an extension of existing solutions in order to provide Trakt support.

Re: [1.0.3] Trakt for MediaPortal

ajs, Is there any reason why the Kinopoisk script can not be updated to provide proper IMDb id's? As Technicolour pointed out, you can enter My Videos configuration for the movies missing imdb id's and enter them in. But the best solution would be to update the scraper script and re-scrape your movies.

Re: [1.0.3] Trakt for MediaPortal

I use a standard plug-in Video and to him scrapper for Kinopoisk.ru, all the names in movies database Mediaportal stored as "Russian name / original name (year)" while the original name of 100% corresponds to the name in imdb. Therefore it is necessary to synchronize with trakt.tv just throw the Russian name and we will get the name of the movie as "the original name (year)" and it is not a problem as for me.

Get in contact with the developer of the Kinopoisk.ru scrapper and get them to update it so that it includes the imdbid in it's results. Then trakt syncing will work perfectly.

I'm not sure that this is possible because kinopoisk a separate database of movies, but I'll ask just in case something can be done.

But I do not see where imdbid prescribe: (
