Series showing no episodes. (1 Viewer)

[Druski]

Hi,

I have a bunch of series in my database that definetly have episodes but list a 0 episode count. If I select the series the episodes that exist then show up, its just not displaying the count of them from the root menu. At first I though it could have been a particular drive, but there are other series on the same drive that are displaing correctly. They are also greyed out in the details tab of the configuration.

Wierd thing is, I know that these series were working previously.

Any ideas??

Hi
I have the same problem, but I found the solution (for now).
As you select plug-in configuration and choose the whole series watche, and then unwatched (several times).
For me this solution worked.

Same thing happened to me yesterday with only one of the series I have. The episodes are categorized as Specials and entered into the database using the 'Absolute' counting. They all worked fine before yesterday, but now the series is grayed out and shows 0 episodes (should be 10--Cinematic Titanic is the series). Down a level under 'Specials' all the series are listed as they should be...I don't have any idea how to fix this.

Has anyone resolved this issue? I BELIEVE I am having a similar issue. Basically I updated to My TVSeries 2.5.4 (I am running Mediaportal 1.0.1) and afterwards a seemingly random amount of episodes are no longer parsing correctly (I had deleted some series from the database after I upgraded My TV Series and re-adding them). More or less this is the order of what happened:

1. I was running an old version which worked fine, every episode was parsing without an issues
2. Updated to the latest stable version of My TVSeries via manual installation (zip file, did not run the installer)
3. Deleted some series to resolve some duplicate episode issues and then rescanned
4. Parsing engine can now not match MANY episodes that it was previously able to find without any issues. Lost Season 4 would be an example of this. It is named and labeled exactly like Season 1, 2 etc which parse just fine yet Season 4 shows up in the manual episode importer

None of the episodes show up highlighted under 'import paths' either and all the parsed information for the shows that don't show up looks correct. Any ideas?

To "fix" this I rolled back to plugin version v2.3.3538 and then "deleted" a series that had a season/episodes that weren't parsing correctly and then rescanned it, which added it back properly. Is there a better solution on the latest version?

I fixed this issue by exporting my watch status, deleting the existing database file, re-running the importer from scratch and finally importing my watched status back in later.

This is not the ideal scenario though, I just felt a lot safer doing this way. I found that the plug-in was smart enough to recognize artwork/fanart that already existed so it wasn't that massive an undertaking. It also seems that you can rename files and its smart enough to pick up on that as well, so its possible to use tools like TV-Rename to cleanup large collection without it losing reference to the files once they have been renamed.

At least now I know that my database file has been created with the latest version of the plug in.

Hope this helps,

Drew

Thanks for the reply Drew! I swapped back to the new version of the plugin, renamed the database and after setting up My TV Series again it worked without any issues. I guess I just ran into some issue with the upgrade and my database. Either way, I'm on the new version of the plugin and it looks like everything works as it should. Thanks again for the reply!
