Not finding shows in TVDB (The good place/ botched)

[Thirrian]

I don’t see what problem that is going to solve. Traktarr just automates adding shows to sonarr by calling sonarr’s api as far as I can tell, and sonarr then performs the same actions as if you add a series through the gui. Calling thetvdb’s api to fetch its info…

I ran some tests and I can confirm that the tvdb api is not the problem.

I ran the following API query:

https://api.thetvdb.com/search/series?name=Queen

And it returned the following result:

{
  "data": [
    {
      "aliases": [],
      "banner": null,
      "firstAired": "2019-12-14",
      "id": 373783,
      "image": "/banners/series/373783/posters/62026028.jpg",
      "network": null,
      "poster": null,
      "seriesName": "Queen",
      "slug": "queen",
      "status": "Ended"
    },
    {
      "aliases": [],
      "banner": null,
      "firstAired": "2019-1-10",
      "id": 357485,
      "image": "/banners/posters/5c29a19f20084.jpg",
      "network": "Fuji TV",
      "overview": "Himi is a lawyer from Suzuki Law Office that expertise in crisis management. Most of clients are women who are trapped in scandals. Together with her team, Himi never gives up and always tries her best for justice to take place.",
      "poster": null,
      "seriesName": "Queen",
      "slug": "queen-scandal-lawyer",
      "status": "Ended"
    },

The first series is the one I want. The skyhook api, however, returns this:

{"message":"NotFound","description":"thetvdb.com does not have a series with the tvdbid 373783, it may have been removed."}

For the following query:

http://skyhook.sonarr.tv/v1/tvdb/shows/en/373783

It appears you’d be much better off querying the TVDB API directly.

Well to add to this I haven’t been able to get Hudson & Rex to pull the latest episode that thetvdb.com shows which is Episode 12. It is there, probably has been for a couple days but it won’t update in Sonarr. Restarting, shutting down, etc doesn’t seem to help.
