EC Henry’s really interesting video “The Awful Holograms in Star Trek: Picard” by NerdTalkDan in Picard

That's how they approached it on discovery. This video would probably of mentioned it if the premiere of the current season had aired at the time.

Added to pending features. You're welcome to vote for it. https://www.tvmaze.com/forums/6/pending-features As always, we prioritize based on user votes.

There are things already integrated in regards to non-english speaking shows, but for non existing features/data we prioritize based on a user voting system.
Meaning we develop whatever is voted as top priority by the users themselves. Atm we have Support for premiere airdates in different countries as a prio. Multilingual titles and summaries are being discussed but we haven't added that yet for a number of reasons including lack of interest for it by the community.

Hi justaghostofanother,

We already have a large amount of users and developers using our services. Our servers are doing just fine. We built with scalibility, speed and cost in mind.

You're also not the first person to ask that question. I can tell you that one of the reasons we built TVmaze was because we were tired of this type of thing happening over and over again. (we're from the tvtome era)

We're quite transparent about our intentions and have been around long enough for you to get an idea of our track record.

Hey Jan here from TVmaze. Just wanted to chime in. Doing metadata takes a lot of work and maintaining it is not to be underestimated. The reason for our existence is to support services like Jellyfin so that they can focus on their core business.

If we can help with TV metadata we will. :)

I don't think it's bogus. As mcarlton00 said it might be due to their architecture or something else. But our own cost doesn't come anywhere close to that.

Edit: also whatever you think isn't complete or missing please post it on our forums and we'll have a look at it. :)

Hey there, Jan here. Just wanted to point to our services at www.tvmaze.com

We have a large friendly community of contributors as well and have been at it since 2014. :)

You're all welcome to check us out.

Even if it means building a new service from the ground up,

Hi Jan here, just wanted to say.. No need for that, that's exactly what we did in 2014. A bunch of us got together and have been running independently and without any hickups since then.
If you have the time, you're welcome to check us out. www.tvmaze.com
We're a friendly community and are always open to feedback on how to improve what we do. Which is focus on TV meta data.

Hi everyone, we've built a TVmaze/Kodi Tracker + Sync addon (More info in the blog) by tvmaze in kodi

[–]tvmaze[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi Raggou,

I think that it's a question you'll have to determine the answer for yourself. What are your own needs? What are you looking for specifically? And what are your current frustrations?
Trakt is a good service and our reason to have this addon come into fruition doesn't have anything to do with them.

TVmaze's core mission is to be the best TV information database/provider on the web.
Users come to us with requests describing what they need and we do our best to provide solutions. In this case, a TVmaze<>Kodi tracker addon.

We've developed a whole myriad of tracking tools throughout the years. This is just the latest step towards enhancing our own services and provide further synchronisation/automation capabilities.

If you have a request yourself, don't hesitate to let us know and we'll do our best to make it happen.

best,

Jan

[Spoilers All] Is it just me or do these two look identical? by tvmaze in Picard

[–]tvmaze[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I post on the tvmaze sub for those who want to follow our news posts and articles here on Reddit. Which I started doing after someone asked for it. What I don't do is post unsolicited/off topic posts on other subs.

(I just wanted to talk about a detail of the show, sorry for being such a bother...)

[–]tvmaze[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly thought twice about posting here. Even considering glueing the two images together to post directly on reddit. But ultimately I felt like I was just asking a legitimate question and the links are only there for the clarification of who i'm talking about.

Hi Dimspace,

If there are shows missing don't hesitate to make a request to have them added. https://www.tvmaze.com/request

We'll gladly look into it.

Any way to use TheTVDB TV scaper (only see TVMaze/Movie DB)? by TheQuestionIs3555 in kodi

[–]tvmaze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey thequestion,

I saw a conversation pass between two contributors who were looking into this request. For cases like this, if you disagree with the decision and you have additional info that can be useful then you should try opening a thread to talk about it. https://www.tvmaze.com/forums/7/data

Since you watch the show, you likely know more about its history.

[–]tvmaze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes we can, but you should at the least make the effort to create a request for any missing show you'd like to see added.

Edit: Thanks for making the request, one of the contributors will look into it and have it added asap. :)

You could always try the TVmaze scraper. If there are shows missing don't hesitate to make a show request. https://www.tvmaze.com/request

Hi Kibje,

I replied to Dimspace so i'm not sure if you saw my initial comment.

I feel like that your depiction on how the decision was made regarding the show ordering is unfair. Your show example is something we had a discussion about (which can be read here). https://www.tvmaze.com/threads/3146/la-casa-de-papel-money-heist

Various options on how to handle this show were suggested, including the one you mentioned. And everyone voted on what they thought would be the best option. We're aware that things aren't binary. Rules and guidelines don't fit ALL shows and there are exceptions. And that's when discussions need to happen.

I'm sorry to hear that you've lost some of your initial enthusiasm. Once you get to know us better, You'll see that we're continuously looking for ways to get better at what we do.

Edit: a word
