TV Series 'The X Files' not showing in Serviio

Hi,

I have a missing video issue. The TV series The X-Files. All the seasons and episodes are not shown in Serviio. It seems that Serviio cannot connect to the metadata source via its API as well. My detailed log file (with debug info) for Serviio is attached.

The Serviio version is Serviio PRO v 1.9. I guess it is the latest one.

Thank you in advance.

Kind regards,
Paul.

I'm wondering if the problem is that the TVDB doesn't have a Russian language page for that TV show? They only list French, Italian, Norwegian, Denmark, Netherlands and English. And those languages seem to be spread across several versions of the show.

If you have all of these files in an X-Files sub-folder, try adding the IMDB title number to the folder name. You might need to add it to each file as well. Assuming we are talking about the 1993 TV Series, the number is tt0106179. See this page for more info on using IMDB naming: http://wiki.serviio.org/doku.php?id=imb ... ata_naming

Hello Dan,

thank you very much for soon reply. Your solution is really great and it worked out like a charm. Could you consider programming an additional feature to Serviio like selecting the Preffered language and Default language. Just for a case if a metadata source does not have data for preferred language, instead Serviio should give the second try with default language specified.

BTW, throughout your hint the 11th season of this TV series invoked in Russian successfully as well as episode titles, and TV series name.

Thank you again for your assistance.

Best regards,
Paul.
