Hot Ones YouTube TVDB Matching

[baxterblk]

I'm currently manually adding the YouTube Video URLs to each inidivual episode on TVDB for "Hot Ones".

Just want to ensure that I'm adding the URLs to the correct place for the yt-dlp script to be able to download from.

Furthermore, do we know how long it takes the changes to propogate to be recognized by the script(s)?

Looks like it is looking at production code:

arr-scripts/sonarr/YoutubeSeriesDownloader.service

Line 94 in f9e9cc6

downloadUrl=$(echo "$tvdbPageData" | grep -iws "production code" -A 2 | sed 's/\ //g' | tail -n1)

Example page: https://www.thetvdb.com/series/the-slow-mo-guys/episodes/10255746

If you give me an example link to one of the ones you've done, I can look into any changes that may need to take place.

Here what I'm seeing... which states it grabs for a URL first then it looks for production code.

# Fetch the TVDB page for the episode
95: tvdbPageData=$(curl -s "https://thetvdb.com/series/$seriesTvdbTitleSlug/episodes/$episodeId")

# Attempt to extract a YouTube URL directly from the TVDB page
96: downloadUrl=$(echo "$tvdbPageData" | grep -i youtube.com  | grep -i watch | grep -Eo "(http|https)://[a-zA-Z0-9./?=_%:-]*")

# If no YouTube URL is found, check for the YouTube network and use the production code
98: if [ -z $downloadUrl ]; then
99:     network="$(echo "$tvdbPageData" | grep -i "/companies/youtube")"

I've updated ALL episodes on TVDB with the corresponding URL to the main website i.e. YouTube URL.
100:    if [ ! -z "$network" ]; then 
101:        downloadUrl=$(echo "$tvdbPageData" | grep -iws "production code" -A 2 | sed 's/\ //g' | tail -n1)
102:        if [ ! -z $downloadUrl ]; then
103:            downloadUrl="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=$downloadUrl"
104:        fi
105:    fi
106: fi

Yes, you are right.

[baxterblk]

Understood. So I'm just waiting for propogation then it seems.

Yeah, I think that is the issue. I modified a couple for some testing, and when I curl the pages, I don't see the info... yet visiting the site, I see the info... Odd... probably due to caching or something else related to that....

@baxterblk Looks like what your doing is working because I'm getting more episodes... Keep up the good work! Thanks!

Real heroes are the ones that take the time to populate/update the databases!

[baxterblk]

That's good news!! 🙂

I've also added all the links for Specials as well.

I'll need to ensure S01-S03 are up-to-date with correct URLs. I think I started adding at Season 03.

Tons of work. About 12 hours in total.
