Episode descriptions


Magitroopa posted 7 months ago

I don't know if you've noticed or not, but when you copy/paste descriptions from some websites, it leads to leaving excess spacing in the description, such as this. Could you possibly please try to avoid doing this? Thanks.

Somi posted 7 months ago

I will pay attention the next time I copy/paste. Thanks for the heads up.

Clone High

You're adding episodes from the old Clone High to the Max reboot page, they already exist on the old show.

Oops sorry! Can you delete what I added?

Thanks, I wasn't sure and I started deleting some of what I posted.

Episode order on season pages


MTQueenie posted a year ago

Stop putting 1 in episode order when you create seasons, if you don't know how many episodes are ordered you leave the field blank instead of just adding a random and clearly very wrong number.

I was under the impression episode order was the start of the first episode of number 1. 

I will stop putting 1 in episode order when creating episodes in the future.

That doesn't even make sense, a season always starts with episode 1 so why on earth would we want to list that :/ episode order means how many episodes the network has ordered for the season

I'm sorry my reasoning doesn't make sense to you. I am doing the best I can. I've been learning how to use this platform for the last 5 months. 

I have acknowledged your criticism and appreciate you bringing my mistakes to my attention, so I can do better in the future.

Highest resolution episode picture from peacocktv


blackcat2021 posted a year ago

Hi Somi,

I propered you a few times with 4K pics instead of FHD for some ep. pics from Peacock.

Here's the recipe: :)

Using Firefox, open the episode page >> CTRL I >> Media >> Look for a link with LAND_16_9 string in it (for a quick find - should be the 8th in the list) >> Copy the link >> Upload the image
(eg. https://www.tvmaze.com/edit/model?episode_id=2420611 )

All the best.

Hi blackcat2021

I noticed that sometimes, when Peacock's episode pics are first downloaded to website they have a low resolution. A few hours later the web site shows a higher resolution after I've already copied the lower resolution pic. It happened the other day with the Tv show Bel Air. 

I will give your recipe a try. I'll download Firefox browser, I usually use Chrome.

Thanks for sharing your recipe!

Somi

Yeah, you are right, couple of times I just found FHD from Peacock... This must be it...

I'm using Chrome, Firefox and Opera :) Firefox Media Info option (with CTRL-I) is useful to quickly track the image links for episodes (with the preview image) instead of Inspecting it in Chrome if the copy image link is not available.

Episode with wrong airdates.


blackcat2021 posted a year ago

Hi,

Just wanted to ask you kindly to pay attention when you create episodes. https://www.tvmaze.com/shows/59337/teen-mom-family-reunion when you create multiple episodes and the day of the week is set in the main show info page, on the next episode it will put the date of the next week, so if a show has 2 episodes/day (special time slot for the 2nd episode)  you will need to manually enter the date (go back a week) before hitting Create.

All the best.

Hi blackcat2021

No problem

Thanks for the knowledge

Hi,

Also when creating episodes for new seasons make sure schedule day (of the week) is set right on the main show info page, otherwise it will create the next episode using the previous season's day time-slot, and if for example it changed from Tue to Wed. it will create a wrong air-date. https://www.tvmaze.com/episodes/2493587/the-nate-and-jeremiah-home-project-2x02-keep-it-in-the-family 

I'm telling you all this because TVmaze is the main source for other sites/apps and bringing inaccurate data is not too good.

Anyway keep up the good work, don't take it as a criticize, take it as improvement advice. 

All the best.

Somi posted a year ago

No problem, I will start checking dates.

Thanks

Somi
