Can't get banners to download (1 Viewer)

[gilberti69]

Firstly Thank you SO much for this wonderful plugin! I've been using it for what seems like forever - It's the absolute dogs danglies!!

I've just installed MP 1.1 and the MP-TVSeries-2.6.0.1157 doesn't seem to be downloading the banners. I'm using a remote DB and server share for files and MP data. It's getting the episode thumbs but that's all.

Is there something I need to do to get it to re-download the banners?

Do you have any software blocking banners, such as Adblockers or firewalls? You may need to whitelist Online TV Database - An open directory of television shows for HTPC software

I don't think I made myself very clear, I've install the new MP 1.1 and MP-TVSeries 2.6.0.1157 on my current HTTP. Previously I've been using MP 1.0.6 and each new version of MP-TVSeries. Up til now all has been working fine, but I was give the option to clear the thumbs in the installation and since i've been getting a few oddities I thought it would be a good idea to start from a clean slate.

The only option that looks vaguely promising is the 'clear update timestamps', but I'm not sure what that does. My thinking is the thumbs have been removed but the DB still has entries for the shows, so won't download a banner unless it's a 'new' one.

It should re-download missing banners, even if they are referenced in your database and not local. 'clear update timestamps' wont help you, that will just force to download a complete update zip file as opposed to whats changed since your last update.

You could try clearing your database as well, but I have no idea as you havent posted any logs or anything when you run the import.

I tried the reset timestamps option and deleted my thumbs, still got a lot of errors on import but i've got season banners now.
