Number of Seasons limited to 20 - stargazer - 2024-06-11

I have The Simpsons with 31 seasons, but only seem to be able to add the first 20. Anything higher gets rescanned, but not added. Running 10.9.6

There also seems to be a problem with Looney Tunes, which on TVDb uses the year as a season number.

How are your files and folders named?


RE: Number of Seasons limited to 20 - stargazer - 2024-06-11

Within the added library path, it's just "The Simpsons" with sub-folders of Season 00, Season 01, Season 02, ... etc.
It picks up the first 20 seasons fine - but keeps rescanning everything at or above Season 21
Individual episodes contain the string _S##E##_ with appropriate season and episode numbers.

There is one strange thing, I'm using webhooks to notify item added, and I get an email for each episode - but it's missing the Show title and Season in the email for the episodes above Season 21+

oh, that's interesting - just checked - I have a Windows instance and a Linux instance - both running 10.9.6 - The Windows one is picking them all up - it's just the linux one that has a problem.

Can you rescan the show, replace all metadata, and when it completes share your log via pastebin?


RE: Number of Seasons limited to 20 - stargazer - 2024-06-11

You appear to have fixed it for me - although not in the way I expected.
Previously I have been doing a scan of all libraries - getting a load of "item added" updates, but these episodes failed to add.
When I did a metadata refresh specifically for "The Simpsons" - within a few seconds it added the missing seasons, a few minutes later the episodes were added, and they seem to have stayed there. I'm going to do a full library rescan (just for new and changed, as before) and I suspect it will leave those episodes alone, and the huge occasional "item added" email flood to my inbox will stop !
