Trailers not downloded, TMDB have multiple trailers

[geek-baba]

Hi - this is great tool and I am loving it! I however noticed that few trailers are not downloaded even when TMDB has multiple trailers. Few examples:

Singin' in the Rain The King's Man

docker exec -it radarr-uhd /bin/bash -c '/config/scripts/TrailerTech/TrailerTech.py -d "movies-uhd/The Kings Man (2021)"'

Let me know if you need more info.

Can you edit your settings.ini and set logging to debug mode and run the command again? It should then report why a specific download was removed from its list of potential candidates.

It appears that your folder naming convention removed the apostrophe and trailer tech can't find it because of this. Look in the wiki and try to force the title and include the apostrophe.

Optionally you can pass the tmdbid of the film. Using these flags will make trailer tech ignore folder names in preference to user supplied info.

Additional, when called from radarr, it uses imbd/tmdb id's provided by radarr which prevents these issues.

Thanks for the tip, manually adding tmdb or imdb id works, and good to know that from radarr the tmdb/imdb values are passed.

However I was curious and wanted to see if their is scope for an enhancement, I use radarr to rename the files in following format:

{Movie CleanTitle} ({Release Year})/{Movie CleanTitle} ({Release Year}) {Quality Title} - {imdb-{ImdbId}}

which removes any special character from the movie title, so my question is if the script could pick up the plex format of imdb in curly braces from the file name for manual scrapping?

When manual scraping, trailer tech looks for any xml files in the movie directory. If one is found and it has imdb or tmdb id's, then those id's are used. If not then as a fall back, a very rudimentary method of extracting title and year from the folder naming convention is used.

I don't use plex and am not familiar with how it parses local files but if it has any xml files in it then there should not be any issues unless the xml is using tags which my script isn't aware of.

I will close this issue for now. Feel free to post any details on how plex expects info bound files and maybe I can add them to the script in a later release. Additionally I can look into extracting that data from the path. Only issue I see is that everyone uses different naming conventions.

Thanks for looking into this and providing valuable input!
