WebTools-NG: two bugs/issues with latest PMS version?

Hello!

In WebTools-NG, I have defined a custom level scheme to export meta data for TV shows. After rebuilding my PMS from scratch, I ran the export to check a few details and ran into two problems:

  1. For every show where I configured an alternative episode ordering (instead of Library Default), the export shows ‘N/A’. In my case, these are set to ‘TheTVDB (Aired)’ or 'TheTVDB (Absolute) (see screenshot below)
  2. The export of a second TV library results in an almost empty file, just containing line feeds ($0A) for every show.
    Is this a known issue?

Just tried it against a PMS v1.41.3.9276-8f15273fb and it worked fine

Thanks for checking, @dane22 !

That’s strange. I set up a fresh server (1.41.3.9292) in a VM with a single library and a single show. Setting Episode Ordering to anything else than ‘Library Default’ results in “N/A” here.
If you want, I can share the corresponding DB with you.

You can DM me a zip with the database

Hmmm

Back in the old days, when the code for WebTools-NG was made, the XML field for episode ordering was like:

Since then, it seems like the values has changed into:

So why it worked for me is due to the show ordering was set a long time ago, and as such has the values that WebTools-NG is looking for

A new fresh show will sadly have values WebTools-NG doesn’t know about, and as such set to N/A

That requires a code update to WebTools-NG, but sadly the code has not been updated for more than 2 years, and simply no time to do so, sorry

As an alternative, you might try out Exporter Guide · Tautulli/Tautulli Wiki · GitHub

Sorry

Edit, You might have to download the pics above and view in a photo app or siml.

Nevermind, thanks for your help (and this great tool!)
