#485 Wrong number of banners when scraped
I noticed when you scrape banners it adds extra banners when certain cesons doesnt exist on tvdb. Example I scraped The Nanny and it has 6 seasons and 1 special. But it somehow added an extra banner for a season that doesnt exist. I think you somehow have it creating banners for non existing seasons. Since if you do Disney Animated Series it creates over 1000 banners when there isnt that many seasons it created banners for the DVD Seasons and Noraml Seasons which is correct Season 1-9 for DVD order then creates banners for 1929-2003 which is correct. But it also created banners for seasons 10-1928 which is not correct since none of those seasons exist on TVDB. It doees the same for TMDB as well.
Also it creates 1 extra banner after the final season of the show on tvdb or tmdb.
This is when you use the Manual series function?
What manual series function? I am talking about banners if you click TV Prefrences and D/L Sesaon posters then the check box there is banners afer taht. When you check it it creaets banners for non existing seasons on TVDB.
This is when you scrape a series and you want the banners autoamtically downloaded it creates banners for non existing seasons on TVDB and i know tvdb doeesnt have banners for those seasons.
Sorry, I mean adding a series using F2 Manual Add a TV Series
All good I can reproduce the extra banner.
Not sure what to do about Disney, Can you give me a Disney Animated example please.
I'll look into the extra banner code problem
If you do Disney animated series it will create banners for seasons 11-1921 when none of those seasons exist on TVDB. ONly seasons 1-8 for DVD order exist and Seasons 1922 onward exist. there is no Seasons 11-1921. it will create over 1800 banners for none existing seasons. Same with if you do any show that doesn't start with Season 1.

Same if you do Pawn stars and the season starts with season 2000. it will create over 1900 extra banners.
DO you mean Disney Animated Shorts - Series. You don't need to repeat the issue, I understood your initial ticket.
Thats enough Info, I can work with Pawn Stars.
Same with the show death Battle it starts with season 2011 and it created over 2000 non existing season banners.
Sorry. Its just very annoying it doing that. i have to maually delete all those extra banners.
Since the banner scraping and the amount of banners should match the amount of seasons on tvdb and tmdb.
I know the issue. Leave it with me.
Found the issue, can't resolve it, except to advise to uncheck the option Save Main Banner as Season Banner if none to Download
TVDb does not let us know how many seasons there are, what the season numbering is, only the last season aired.
As these seasons are listed as years, and I'd say 98% of series are listed numerically starting at number 1 season, The option above copies the series banner starting at season 1, until the first Year season matches.
Disable the above option, and only the yearseason banner will save, if it exists.
If no Year season banner exists, then none will be saved.
There unfortunately is no other option to resolve this issue.
New release out now, closing this ticket.
