Comicvine Plugin not being friendly?
Hi, when I add comics, it doesn't download the metadata, but if I edit the metadata of a single comic book and click download metadata it works?
I have 10 000+ comic books I want to add and this could end up painful... Any help would be super... |

Did you mean ComicVine plugin?
I can move this thread there if so. |

I haven't touched the ComicVine plugin in years but I seem to remember having to get my own API key as it was incredibly slow without it. Last edited by DNSB; 09-19-2023 at 12:33 PM. |

I have the API key sorted. And I did figure out that same trick you mentioned. But I find I have to disable other metadata sources or it gets confused sometimes. I managed to get several hundred done this afternoon. Thanks |

Good to hear that you are getting a handle on your problem. A thousand a week or so and you'll be done by the new year.

I've tried some improving of the comicvine plugin - and yes, it does need the API key or else comicvine.gamespot throttles requests or even denies them. I am now trying to do a "cleanup" of the code, but still, in the end most issues are with comicvine.gamespot search itself, nothing I can fix on the plugin. Of course, improvement suggestions, code snippets, issues, are all welcome.
