SOLVED: New episode metadata

[Theetjuh]

Sorry it took so long, but hopefully this gives some more info why.

I tried to update Star Wars The Bad Batch S03E04.

It's definitely these errors that keep happening, though I am not sure why. It doesn't seem like TMDB or OMDB have any episode information and those are the only two sources being queried for information on this episode.

So it seems like TVDB is not ever being queried and none of the requested metadata is being returned. Should that matter? Well...as far as I can tell, the answer is no since TMDB has episode information, just maybe not exactly what info is being queried. You've got me stumped, but it still seems like metadata providers aren't set up properly. You could try enabling the TVDB plugin, though I'll warn you that it has caused me nothing but headaches...

When I look at this issue, those errors seem kinda ‘normal’ ?

I second this.  I gave up on TVDB.  There's also the issue of TVDB having a pretty low API rate limit compared to TMDB.

[Theetjuh]

Ok I did some tests, I created a second docker project with only ‘Family Guy’ and ‘Star Wars: The Bad Batch’ in a library.
Exactly the same episodes did not get an episode name like in my main Jellyfin environment.

I did a second test, with English as the metadata language and every episode name got filled in.

This would mean there is something wrong on TMDB side in the Dutch section or within Jellyfins TMDB plugin.
I guess I will change the language, that will at least fix this.

Sheesh. That kind of makes sense since it likely doesn't look at other languages, just the one you select. Glad you were able to figure out a fix!
