Replying to merc1984@…:

2014-06-25 08:47:26.742393 I Running Grabber: /usr/local/share/mythtv -l en -a US -M Danger Man

This is an unedited log entry? It's trying to execute a directory as a grabber script? Could you post the mysql output of...

use mythconverg SELECT * FROM settings WHERE value="TelevisionGrabber?";

comment:2 Changed 10 years ago by merc1984@…

Yes this is exactly as it gave me. I was pretty sure that was the problem, but don't know why.

Whups.

MariaDB [mythconverg]> SELECT * FROM settings WHERE value="TelevisionGrabber?"; +-------------------+------+----------+ | value | data | hostname | +-------------------+------+----------+ | TelevisionGrabber? | | NULL | +-------------------+------+----------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) MariaDB [mythconverg]>

comment:4 Changed 10 years ago by merc1984@…

Again.

MariaDB [mythconverg]> SELECT * FROM settings WHERE value="TelevisionGrabber?"; +-------------------+------+----------+ | value | data | hostname | +-------------------+------+----------+ | TelevisionGrabber? | | NULL | +-------------------+------+----------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) MariaDB [mythconverg]> exit Bye

... And yet... {attachment}

Idk why it's adding the '?', but it's not there in real life.

comment:6 Changed 10 years ago by merc1984@…

lol, I tried to attach a screenie of my actual Konsole steps, but Trac said, "Submission rejected as potential spam (Akismet says content is spam, StopForumSpam? says this is spam (ip), BlogSpam? says content is spam ( Listed in HTTP;bl), SpamBayes? determined spam probability of 71.47%)"

Fine.

comment:7 Changed 10 years ago by Raymond Wagner

Trac has some logic somewhere that makes guesses at what key words might be useful wiki pages. When there is no wiki page for that word, it adds a question mark.

I'll have to look into how a blank metadata grabber might have been inserted into the database. What specific version are you running?

comment:8 Changed 10 years ago by merc1984@…

According to mythtv/libs/libmythbase/mythversion.h:

#define MYTH_DATABASE_VERSION "1317"

It's worth noting that this is a new disk array, where I saved the database from the old array with: /usr/bin/mysqldump -u mythtv -pmythtv mythconverg -c > /home/bill/.mythtv/DB-backups/mysql_backup-$(date +"%Y-%m-%d").sql' ... and restored it with:

$ mysql -u root -p mysql> create database mythconverg; mysql> exit $ mysql -u mythtv -pmythtv mythconverg < mythtv_backup.sql ... If Access Denied to user mythtv, create a new mythconverg: $ mysql --user=root --password < /usr/local/src/mythtv*/mythtv/database/mc.sql ... -then- restore backup.

MySQL time zone support is missing.

mysql_tzinfo_to_sql /usr/share/zoneinfo | mysql -u root -p mysql

It updates new movie videos just fine, but not TV shows.

comment:10 Changed 10 years ago by merc1984@…

Um, anyone?

comment:11 Changed 10 years ago by Karl Egly

Simplest is likely to manually go to the metadata settings and reselect the TVDB grabber. It is at "Setup"->"Artwork and Data Sources" and should look similar to the screenshot at http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Enhancing_Recordings_with_Metadata_Lookup#Enabling_Automatic_Artwork_Updates

comment:12 Changed 10 years ago by merc1984@…

Thanks, but as I noted above, that -is- set. (see attachment)

comment:13 Changed 10 years ago by Raymond Wagner

Did you ever actually hit "save" on that screen to reset the selection, or did you just open it up and see that it was the only available selection?

comment:14 Changed 10 years ago by merc1984@…

There --is no-- Save, as can be seen in the screenie. The only option is to back out with <esc>.

comment:15 Changed 10 years ago by merc1984@…

Correction: The Save is in a different place, and Saving does indeed make TV metadata work.

So I guess the bug would be why TheTVdb.com shows up there, but isn't actually saved, contrary to what it appears.
