MCEBuddy herkent metadata die in mkv-bestand is ingesloten niet

Ik kan de metadata zien wanneer ik het MKV-bestand in VLC bekijk, zelfs in het logbestand worden de gegevens weergegeven. Maar om de een of andere reden krijg ik bovenstaande fout en vervolgens worden er geen tags herkend.

De opnames worden gegenereerd vanuit TVHeadend als MKV, H.264/AC3.

Ik gebruik Windows 10 Pro, op een VM. Ik heb het ook geprobeerd in Windows 7 Pro met hetzelfde probleem. Iemand ideeën?

Ik weet niet waar of hoe ik de logs moet uploaden, maar ik heb ze.

Bedankt

Can you upload the original MKV file to the MCEBuddy server for us to analyze:

The instructions are here:

OK, I uploaded the file and the log. It is in a folder called Dwain_Engel Upload. I believe the file and the log are from the same convert. I have been doing a lot of them. All of the conversions have the same issue,

Thanks

Thanks that was helpful, it would be great if you can upload a few more samples of different types (movies, tv shows, sports, news etc) and with additional metadata, series, episodes, recorded date time, premiere date, release date, actors, genres, ratings etc - we can solidify this.

They can be short samples, 10-20MB, we’re looking for different types metadata essentially to test with

OK, I will work on that tomorrow after regular work.

I uploaded some samples in a folder under my original upload “Dwain_Engel Upload” the folder is called “samples” there are several short recordings pre and post processing along with the logs.

Thanks for reporting this, I’m going to move this to bug/feature enhancements. The MKV metadata section wasn’t complete hence you didn’t see it. We’ll add support for it in the next release.

OK, sounds good.

Is there a container that could work better in the meantime…

I may have to transcode the recordings before they are scanned by MCEBuddy. MKV is produced without transcoding in TVHeadend, to create an MP4 it may take too much power on my current VM layout and therefore limit the number of concurrent recordings. I am playing around with Handbrake to transcode the MKV into an MP4 without removing the metadata, that way MCEBuddy will hopefully still work as needed.

If you want just reading support, you can use yesterday’s 2.4.8 BETA build, we’ve added support for reading MKV metadata.

If you want to write the metadata, you can use MP4 and use the MP4 Unprocessed profile to change the containers from MKV to MP4 with only a transcode operation.

This has been implemented in today’s 2.4.8 BETA build. Try it out and let us know how it goes. Make sure you’re downloading today’s build. It now supports reading and writing MKV metadata.

I’m not seeing any MKV metadata when inspecting with VLC. I’m pulling MPGs off HDHomerun DVR and also Tivo (.ts) files pulled via KMTTG. Are there options I need to do in KMTTG or HDHomerun’s DVR or can IMDB/TVDB data be pulled and populated into the MKV? Can the HDHR logs help fill in the blanks?

I use Plex, which Plex says ignores .nfo files, and I’ve got shows recorded that aren’t in TVDB (old PBS cooking shows that aren’t in syndication anymore, and so people haven’t entered them into TVDB, but they’re in the program guide data - season, episode, synopsis, original air date, etc.). So Plex isn’t using the .nfo files, but if I delete them, the data isn’t embedded into the MKVs either, so I lose that detail. I think Plex will use metadata in the metadata files (if TVDB is empty). Plus, the air date and channel are retained in the .nfo files.
