Any plans to have Channels read nfo files from Videos (ie. Archived YouTube videos). That'll give me another option outside of JF to watch it
Any chance of bringing this to TV shows?
I know the preference is gracenote, but when I rename my files I include the {tmdb-xxxxxx} as some Australian shows don’t auto match for me on plex.
This obviously has the draw back of having to manually match all tv shows on channels.
Could the tmdb id be either included in the matching process or discarded if not in use for the original matching?
Thanks
The problem currently is the show is only matched to gracenote when episodes are imported.
After that you can match the episodes to tmdb using fix match, but it doesn't update the show metadata or artwork from tmdb, only the episodes. The show metadata and artwork are from gracenote and you would have to edit metadata and use the art picker to change the show metadata.
One of the reasons why I'm not importing anything currently.
Another reason is it can't accurately import recordings it made using gracenote guide data.

This just started happening. I had the movie Vertigo in my library via import. I noticed that early this morning the same movie was recorded. All of my sources use gracenote ID's so there is no custom xml guide or anything. Has anyone else noticed this? I'm trying to understand why this stopped working
@eric @tmm1 @maddox I submitted disanostics in case that helps:

I'm seeing the same movie show up when they are from different sources so similar to you. I also noticed the panels look different as yours do. I can't say the same regarding custom xml guide data as I use FastChannels.
That's interesting.
My guess is that the import doesn't have a program ID matching the program ID of the recording.
I don't know how Channels can match an import with a recording.
You said that it just started doing this so I guess it was working before.
I'm curious about the actual explanation so I will keep an eye on this thread.
Check out the url in the orig post where it refrences the feature.
Thank you for pointing this out. I completely missed it originally.
