Some shows are not updating automatically #7450

Describe the bug Some "TVDB" shows are not updated over night, through the ShowUpdater. This is happening because tvdb is still having a lot of issues with their api v3 switch.

Here is a list of all the issues: https://forums.thetvdb.com/viewtopic.php?t=60239

And we suffer from the issue reported here: https://forums.thetvdb.com/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=60229&start=10

So if you want to keep track of it's status you can check there.

Currently, there is nothing that we can do about it. You can monitor your shows yourself. And once a week run a few forced updates. If possible you can remove your show. But keep the data. And re-add it with tvmaze or tmdb, when possible. For example, this is not possible for anime shows.

Eventually, this will get resolved, and shows will start updating themselves.

A friend and I both noticed today we are having this same issue with shows not updating - he did first and then I forced scan in mass update and found the same. Got here and you already have a bug for it. Just figured I would note we are seeing it too in case that helps with triage. I appreciate you making this post so we know what is going on...thank you.

I've noticed it too (with Vikings) :( Maybe you can add a hot-fix/possibility in 'Edit show' to replace the indexer or to add another one? Or better yet - if the API fail is noticeable - try another indexer?

Re-adding shows is not very user-friendly...

Thanks

@rafi-d no that's really allot of work. Like a few weeks coding.

rafi-d commented 4 years ago

@p0psicles where can you see what exact indexer is being used for a show?

p0psicles commented 4 years ago

Different places. But for ex home - simple layout. You'll have icons for IMDb, trakt and the indexer

rafi-d commented 4 years ago

So, if I'd change manually in main.db the indexer from 1 to 3 (tvMaze) and the indexer_id to whatever it is in tvMaze, it will be enough?

p0psicles commented 4 years ago

Yeah, but don't expect any support when shit hits the fan. Well I wouldn't recommend it.

Should be fixed by now, closing.
