Hey guys, I understand media browser 2.5.1 was meant to fix the issue of not updating new content when it was added into the folder.

In my case this fix is not working. I am using the Diamond theme and run the following type of structure:

d:\media\movies\movie name\ movie file d:\media\tv shows\ tv show name\ season\ tv show file etc…

Now when I have Media Browser and new content is downloaded into the movie main folder, it shows as recently added unwatched, however this does not happen for TV shows.

I have to go to the settings and force a refresh and then wait for the refresh to happen, go into tv shows, then come back out and most of the time the new tv shows will now show up.

Is there a way I can fix this?

Thanks

Dale

 
  • I’ve been having the same issue – I actually forgot to watch a couple of episodes this week, as the unwatched counter on those shows was still showing as a check mark. I thought it was possibly due to installing the SP1 beta one day, and then the proper SP1 the next day, and MB somehow missing out on checking for new shows. – AdrianW over 1 year ago

Is anyone else having this issue? Its still constantly not updating and i have to run the manual service and then go in press record and then go back out and in, and some episodes still do not show up.

Is there a fix for this or is it just an issue with diamond?

Yeah, i do seem to be getting this issue actually. Using Subdued Theme tho.

I find that if i know i have added a show, say, a new episode of Dexter, if i go down to the episode level for that show where it should be, then it finds it and adds it to the library. Otherwise, its a case of doing a refresh.

I’m having this issue too.

I’m not using a theme, just the standard interface with no additional plugins.

I have this issue as well… my “Recently added” pages have not updated in 2 weeks

 
  • Are you running Apollo ?? – CBers over 1 year ago
  • To clarify, that’s Media Browser version 2.5.2. You can download it here: http://code.google.com/p/videobrowser/downloads/listRiccardo over 1 year ago
  • I’ve been encountering this since about Beta 14 or so of Apollo, but only on one of my two TV collections. Even now it’s hit or miss. One day it’ll update, the next I have to switch to recently added, browse to that collection and then I can switch back to unwatched and it’s there. – DGMayor over 1 year ago

I have started to have this issue to now. Here is some info…

I am not a prolific adder of TV and I only add puchased rips when I do actually add so not sure how long this might have been a problem. The last TV I added which I know to have worked was Dexter a month and a half ago so no updates from MB during that time. I am on 2.6.1.0R. Films, Music, and Home Videos work fine. This is an issue in default theme to but I use Throgs suit.

I will add the full logs below but here are some extracts:

Here you can see only two items in quick list but they are not the latest added which was Homeland Season 1 and five seasons of Breaking Bad. Only Ben 10 and Planet Earth are presented in the RAL. You will note the newly added items are seen in in the TV collection and indeed are seens in the logs.

Added more again today and again no RAL update. Rather a frustrating issue.

@skynet600 I had a similar thing awhile back where 5-6 items were always in the ral when I checked I noticed that the added date and created date was 2097. I still to this day don’t know how it happened but I suspect it was a metabrowser or tvdb malfunction. May be worth checking the top items in your ral?

 
  • Hey tikuf appreciate your advice. I have double checked the added dates for the stuff showing and the stuff that isn’t. They are all acceptable and valid. For clarity though the problem is not the existing items in RAL but more that RAL is not updated with newly added items. – skynet600 7 months ago

Another update for you. Seems the issue is with Music to now. I added some thirty albums the other day and the RAL is restricted to showing only two of them. That is the same number as TV funnily enough. All other collections have a long list.

 
  • How many songs were in each of the albums? What is your RecentItemContainerCount set to? – ebr 6 months ago
  • They are the Now series so around 24-30 each. RecentItemContainerCount is set to 50. The biggest issue by far is the TV RAL though. – skynet600 6 months ago
  • Actually the penny has dropped for Music at least. If there are more than 50 in the two albums then I suppose it stands to reason only two albums will show? – skynet600 6 months ago
  • Exactly. The list is limited by the number of actual items, not the containers in which they are shown. – ebr 6 months ago

A naughty, very naughty bump!
