WebTools-NG

Thanks :+1:, but where do “added” comes from?
The reason I ask is that several of my movies show a date with the month 00.
Example “2020-00-27 23:11:50” :hushed:
I cant find this date in the XML -file in PMS.

MediaInfo 22.06 gives me:
<File_Created_Date>UTC 2016-05-07 22:00:00.000</File_Created_Date>
<File_Created_Date_Local>2016-05-08 00:00:00.000</File_Created_Date_Local>
<File_Modified_Date>UTC 2016-05-07 22:00:00.780</File_Modified_Date>
<File_Modified_Date_Local>2016-05-08 00:00:00.780</File_Modified_Date_Local>

File property details gives me:
Date created 08.05.2016 00:00
Date modified 08.05.2016 00:00

DISCLAMER!

Not Plex, just me !

It comes from the database

@dane22 Many thanks for this great tool!

I just tried the new Find Media module and it seems that there is a problem with files containing special characters (like, in my case, German umlauts). The output reports them as mutually missing.

"Title"	"PMS file"	"Filesystem"
N/A	N/A	/Volumes/DROBO/Media/Movies/187 - Eine tödliche Zahl (1997)/187 - Eine tödliche Zahl (1997).mkv
187 - Eine tödliche Zahl	/Volumes/DROBO/Media/Movies/187 - Eine tödliche Zahl (1997)/187 - Eine tödliche Zahl (1997).mkv	N/A

Thanks for the report, and I made a ticket here:

When I export a list of TV episodes , the Media resolution column stay blank if the file meta data says SD. If it says 480 it populates the field. Before I upgraded to 1.0 the field populated the SD ones.

@kellrichardson

See: [BUG] Media Resolution Type Not Reporting SD. · Issue #555 · WebTools-NG/WebTools-NG · GitHub

Sadly I can’t reproduce this :frowning:

I suspect that it might be due to maybe the Syno box isn’t running utf-8 ?

So could you please do the following:

  • Switch file logging to silly
  • Increase log file size to 40 Mb

Then restart WebTools-NG, and try again, and after that, upload the log file

@dane22 Sorry for the delayed response, now I am back from vacation.
It’s a DROBO 5D3 using Mac OS Extended (HFS+). A quick Google search seems to suggest that this file system is using UTF-16.
I’ll send you the requested log file via PM.

I found some issues with the export tool. I created a custom movie export level with “Title”, “Media video resolution”, and “Video Stream Bit depth” (to isolate 1080p movies that are not 10bit [HDR]).

What I found:

  1. If the name of the move includes a comma (e.g. “20,000 leagues under the sea”), the commas become backwards apostrophes in the report and the resulting csv file shifts the results of those items left column wise (which is different from the rest of the data meaning the columns do not align). I have to do some clever sorting and editing to get everything the way I want. And when I rerun the report I have to do it all over again

  2. Movies with 4K resolution often report with an 8-bit video depth when Plex correctly shows them with 10-bit.
  3. Movies with multiple versions report on the same line with “-” separating the values in the relevant cells
is there a way to report them as separate lines to avoid the concatenation of data (very hard to deal with)

Thanks, I love this tool even with the buggy quirks

Please provide the log file in debug mode

Please show me the XML for such a media, as well as the CSV file, since what we report are indeed from PMS itself, so puzzled here

That’s sadly how it is at the moment, but will look into this at some time soon

Disregard
I played around with the export settings and apparently jacked them up. I reset everything and it’s now working as expected.

Note that I changed the “Delimiter for multiple info in same field” to “=” because “10-8” converts to a date in Excel.

If you fix the one line per move version also note that Plex is managing editions in there as well (really confused me in the results
)

And we have a new release, and as always, do remember, that this is NOT Plex, just me :wink:

For a start, please welcome our brand new sponsors:

Both where so kind to provide us with a free API key, since we are Open Source

In this release, we did put a lot of love towards exporting posters and arts

Please see our Wiki here and notice, that we now can export those in a tree, that mimics your library layout

Also, and what triggered a version bump to 1.1 is, that we added a brand new export level to our ExportTools module, named Find missing Episodes that allows you to check, if you got all episodes of a show, as well as the status of that show

For initial release, we sadly only support tmdb, but are working as fast as we can to support tvdb as well

And to give you an idea about the export, look here:

And here’s the full changelog:

Thanks for adding thetvdb support for finding missing episodes. I would like to see an option to exclude season 0 from the results which looks like that is coming based on what I saw on GitHub.

The other issue I saw was that thetvdb has tv episodes listed in the future which have not aired yet. These future episodes cause false positives for missing episodes. Example - See 9-1-1, season 6 - 9-1-1 - TheTVDB.com

Again, thanks for add this support.

First off, thank you for such a great tool. It’s really helpful when I’m trying to clean up my media libraries. For items in Movie libraries, I don’t see the field that has the display title of the audio track. For example, I have a movie with an audio track listed as “English (DTS-HD MA 7.1)”, but in the Audio Stream Title field in WebTools-NG it’s only listing the name/title of the track, such as “Audio commentary” and other related audio fields. If I could get isolation of “English (DTS-HD MA 7.1)” down to “DTS-HD MA 7.1” in a separate field, that would be great.

Does it show when you look at the XML of the movie?

Since I suspect it’s an on the fly constructed field, but frankly unsure
