I use aura mod skin.

Other metadata working fine.

Hi, since there is a change that duration can use time format strings in leia

$INFO[ListItem.Duration(hh,, h] $INFO[ListItem.Duration(mm,, min]
or $INFO[ListItem.Duration(h,, h] $INFO[ListItem.Duration(m,, min]
or $INFO[ListItem.Duration]

SO Thats just working correct in krypton, but get issues in leia.
ALSO its not needed in leia anymore,because you can use kodi labels to seperate durstion types (hh: mm) or (mins) possible in leia to

def get_duration(duration):

'''transform duration time in minutes to hours:minutes'''
if not duration:
    return {}
if isinstance(duration, (unicode, str)):
    duration.replace("min", "").replace("", "").replace(".", "")
try:
    total_minutes = int(duration)
    if total_minutes < 60:
        hours = 0
    else:
        hours = total_minutes / 60
    minutes = total_minutes - (hours * 60)
    formatted_time = "%s:%s" % (hours, str(minutes).zfill(2))
except Exception as exc:
    log_exception(__name__, exc)
    return {}
return {
    "Duration": formatted_time,
    "Duration.Hours": hours,
    "Duration.Minutes": minutes,
    "Runtime": total_minutes,
    "RuntimeExtended": "%s %s" % (total_minutes, xbmc.getLocalizedString(12391)),
    "DurationAndRuntime": "%s (%s min.)" % (formatted_time, total_minutes),
    "DurationAndRuntimeExtended": "%s (%s %s)" % (formatted_time, total_minutes, xbmc.getLocalizedString(12391))
}

Hi there I'm getting failed to install when trying to install the metadata and artwork module on nexus, can anyone help

Hi Marcel,

Is there are way to set in any settings file that you want to bypass calls to omdb?

My log is full of these messages because I don't have (or want) to "buy" a key:

01:22:42.342 T:1237316592 NOTICE: script.module.metadatautils --> Rate limiter active for omdbapi.com - delaying request with 2 seconds - Configure a personal API key in the settings to get rid of this message and the delay.

I am using the Eminence 2 MOD skin, that uses skin.helper.service and script.module.metadatautils.

Or could I just delete the omdb.py file in the script.module.metadatautils/lib/helpers folder? :)

ps Sorry for asking here, but the official Kodi forum is already down for 6+ days...

Bonjour,

J'utilise SkinHelperService pour créer un widget Favoris mais cela ne fonctionne pas.

J'utilise un "paste substitute" dans mon fichier advancedsetting.xml dans userdata car mon fichier "favorites.xml" est sur mon réseau SMB.

Y a t-il un moyen de faire fonctionner le widget car il ne fonctionne qu'avec le fichier favoris en local dans userdata.

Merci pour votre aide.

hi ,
it keeps downloading gifs to the folder .kodi\userdata\addon_data\script.module.metadatautils\ even though i disabled gifs downloading in my skin (EMINENCE 2 MOD (REVIVED)) , the thing is that this folder getting "heavy" because some gifs are even 10 MB....
thanks..

Hello,

I am using Krypton 17.6 together with the Titan skin and after the upgrade to version 1.0.19 of the Metadata and Artwork addon, the CPU load rises up to 100%, the htpc receives data from the NAS with nearly 70 Mbit/s and the fan is going mad. This behaviour continues even when being in idle state, for example in the main menu of Kodi without playing any media.
(EDIT: I am sure, that this addon must be the reason for this behaviour because I coincidentally created an image of the whole system one week ago. Within this week just 5 addons got an update and as soon as I install the upgrade of metadatautils this behaviour occurs)

I figured it was finally time to migrate from Krypton to Leia but Titan was a base requirement for me. Unfortunately none of the current mods seemed to have fixed a problem with 'Skin Helper Widgets' for Music. Many of them don't work -- for me it was a desire for the 'Random Albums' widget that drove me to finally investigate.

The fix is pretty simple (for me at least).

Change this line in the script.module.metadatautils\lib\kodi-constants.py from

FIELDS_ALBUMS = ["title", "fanart", "thumbnail", "genre", "displayartist", "artist", "genreid",
"musicbrainzalbumartistid", "year", "rating", "artistid", "musicbrainzalbumid", "theme", "description",
"type", "style", "playcount", "albumlabel", "mood", "dateadded"]

to

FIELDS_ALBUMS = ["title", "fanart", "thumbnail", "genre", "displayartist", "artist",
"musicbrainzalbumartistid", "year", "rating", "artistid", "musicbrainzalbumid", "theme", "description",
"type", "style", "playcount", "albumlabel", "mood", "dateadded"]

Note: Kodi 18 JSON API no longer supports the parameter "genreid" for the GetAlbums method for the AudioLibrary (class).

I thought that I'd mention this (rudimentary) fix for the mod authors (or any one else interested) who might be able to include it in their repositories. (In retrospect, after I had tracked this down, I see that a user 'Angelinas1' has already noted this fix in github -- that would have saved me some time!)

cheers,
Lee

In this days there a lot of problems with Fanart.tv scrapers, due site problems. The result is a lot of missing images. This is what I receive on the LOG:
https://paste.kodi.tv/izeqinifox.kodi

So, it's possibile to completely disable scrapers on PVR from Fanart.tv, and leave only TVDB and TMDB? I tray to remove Fanart.tv API key from settings, but it doesn't work.

Hi Marcel,

Up until now I just put my personal keys in the .py modules, but you state you can also put them in the settings.xml:

https://github.com/marcelveldt/script.module.metadatautils

1. User/Personal api keys. A user can set his own, personal api key in the Kodi addon settings for the module.

The settings.xml file does not exist in

osmc\.kodi\userdata\addon_data\script.module.metadatautils\

so I've created one manually with this content:

<settings>
     <setting id="fanarttv_apikey" value="keyvaluehere"/>
     <setting id="omdbapi_apikey" value="keyvaluehere"/>
     <setting id="tmdb_apikey" value="keyvaluehere"/>       
</settings>

but that doesn't seem to work.

What is the best way to configure the keys?

Greetings,

Hablaras

I'm in the US and have a all numeric AudioDB API key. In order for things to work I need to change a line in lib, helpers, theaudiodb.py and replace the existing code in the line near end of py file with -

endpoint = 'https://www.theaudiodb.com/api/v1/json/%s/%s' % (self.api_key, endpoint)

Is it possible to change the code so that it works no matter what type of AudioDB API key is used so that the manual change is no longer needed? Thanks.
