Have just updated to the latest version this morning, from the first version, after skipping the past 3 updates, and i have to say it's looking pretty much complete now.

Love the fact how you have managed to get the episode summary to appear when playing the episode, and love the new layout.

Thanks for all the hard effort you've put into this, i only wish i could program half as well

Man I keep seeing this weird thing where all the log entries are duplicated; that can't be good. I never experienced that either.

Otherwise, please clear your log, remove all series / episodes from your db (or delete the db altogether), and start over; be sure that everything matches properly in the parsing test before starting the import. Then do the import & don't touch any other settings in the configuration.
If it acts up again, send the new log.

I have the same problem. The problem is that when an incorrect ID is found, it is added to a list and the parsing is redone. My guess is that every time when it parses the data, it finds the incorrect ID over and over again, adds it to the icorrectIDs list, and will therefore keep looping.

The ID are coming from the server. When the server tells me an ID is incorrect, I need to ask for a new (valid) one. Therefore I loop the parsing process after I cleared the incorrect ID locally.

The parsing going over & over again is a server problem; it happens when I send too many IDs at the same time to the server, somehow something blows there and suddenly it tells me one ID is invalid when it's not; So I ask for this ID again, get it, then try to update the IDs, and the server fails again & returns an incorrectID, etc.

In 0.4 I decreased the number of IDs I send by "batch" from 400 to 100; it shouldn't happen anymore (although I never saw that behavior myself).
If someone still has that problem in 0.4, please tell.

Question: I have some double episodes (i.e. two episodes, single file). How do I have to name them and how do I have to configure the plugin to get them imported?

Double episodes are not supported yet.
If you can, give me example of those double episodes; I'd prefer the "original" bittorrent names if possible. I'll see if something can be done.
If it implies too much work for reliable operation I just might ignore this feature for good being the nice guy I am

Warning!!!
0.4 has a bug that deletes the movie info of ANY movie file you play.
I'm fixing this asap, but if you don't want to lose some IMDB info don't play any movies for the moment until I release 0.4b

Edit:
it's posted. update asap

Regarding double episodes in the old plugin you named them like this:
Monk - 1x01,02 - Mr. Monk and the Candidate.avi. The plugin created two records in the database automatically, but linked them to the same file.

@ zeflash : will you include in your plugin an option for choosing the import's language?

As far as I know, we don't (yet) support multiple languages on the online DB; Zsori is first handling the mirroring issue that will need to be done soon as more & more people are starting to connect on it.

When that's done, it will make sense to start having multiple languages in there, but we're not at this point yet.

Patience, patience...

A quick update for everyone. I have a 1 major bug I'm trying to fix (the one zeflash sent me regarding improper id's) and a number of minor ones (automatic banner requests is broken somehow, etc). I'm having bugs take precedence over everything else, so mirrors and foreign language support are being delayed slightly.

I'm hoping to have some time this weekend to work on things, but my schedule is pretty busy because of the holidays. I'll keep you posted. Thanks for being patient, and thank to zeflash for helping resolve so many bugs.
