TVDB V4 now FREE for SageTV users
There is now a new release of Phoenix Core Services and BMT which now includes the latest v4 TVDB TV provider with FREE use for SageTV users. I was able to negotiate the use of the service free of charge as long as I provided an attribution within the application which I did within BMT whenever the TVDB provider is used (see screen shot below).
Best way to update is to update the BMT plugin which will also update phoenix automatically. To see all the changes in BMT please clear your browser Cache and reload BMT (check Help, About and make sure the version is 4.501.0 or above). BMT/Phoenix will now use tvdb provider as the default for TV which is now using the new version 4 api. If you had already changed to tvdb4 as your provider there is no need to change this as it too will just use the new provider. No setting changes are needed after the plugin is updated. Note: I have left the old provider code in place in case there are any issues but plan to fully remove it in a future release. You can use the old provider manually by selecting tvdbold as the provider when searching for metadata. Please report any issues here on the forums so I can look into them k

this looks great.
as a reminder, the TV DB API plugin is the one that is giving me crashing issues when upgrading it and why I gave up on the entire Phoenix upgrade. Guess this will make me back up everything and try again. ![]() |

Back in July you mentioned the change was for Java 11. Should I try adding that instance? I’m basically still on Java 8. |

What's the easiest way to determine if it's working properly vs. not working properly? Is all the metadata completely missing when not working?

I'm dealing with a s-load of metadata problems, with (I think) airing IDs of old recordings (currently late 2011 and early 2015) getting recycled so that someshow-123456-0.avi acquires metadata from someothershow that has taken the id 123456-0 and is listed as to be recorded in the near future. I can find and repair these, but it's painful & time-consuming. Essentially, I use the web interface to identify all such recordings, note them on a list, copy the listed recordings to another location on my server, where the .properties files I'd previously generated reside, and run setup/scan for imports. That generally reads the .properties files & fixes up the metadata. I then like to check and if needed clean up. Since every couple weeks I get a few dozen of these, it's a royal pain. When satisfied that a given file has been fixed in its new location, I delete it from the previous one. I've tried doing the rescans with the files in place, but that doesn't work. I also haven't found any function in BMT (the previous version) that would help in this endeavor. Of course, what I'd really like is not just an easier way to fix these but a way to prevent the problem from occurring. Is there something in the new BMT anywhere else that could help? I'm becoming a slave to my server.
