Hello there

anyone online?>

hi

is there an TV channel API for IPTV available

hi

no response

Hi ALL

I'm having issues with the api

I get a lot of 404 not found however when in look at the website there is images there for it

anyone experiencing the same thing?

hmm, have you got an example?

sure

shut in 2016

has a background

web request gives me 404

ill get the url now

seems to be working fine for me

I can only assume you aren't using v3 or v3.1 of the api as the older api doesn't see new images for 3 weeks

the accountant is giving the same issue

what url are you using?

That id is for the accountant

lots of images there for it

ohhhh

the id

does the api use imdb_id or tmdb api

thats not the right id

you can use either

it checks if it starts tt

but

imdb probably isn't complete as it only adds it if tmdb knows what it is when it's added

ok so trolls is giving me an issue here also

bad example first time

nope, not an issue

lol

sry about this, buts hard to catch because its treading

threading

that's ok, if you can give a concrete example I can investigate, bear in mind this though: https://fanart.tv/2015/01/personal-api-keys/

Original_title "Nocturnal Animals" string

found one :)

if you aren't passing a personal api key then only images older than a week will be found

IT HAS A POSTER

oops caps

it does happen quite a bit and it get a lot of 502 errs

which is 19hours old, only vip members would get that atm

is there a rate limit on the api

oh ok didn't know that

after 48hours non-vips who have sent a personal api key would get it, then after 7 days those that haven't sent a personal api key would get it

thanks

is there a rate limit

not a programatic one, but we are getting hammered with results atm

we have 1 server and 4 vps's answering api requests currently

*requests

might want to bring that in , take a bit of stress off the servers

tmdb limit to 40 every 10 seconds

do u have a list of status codes for the api?

its not in the apiary documentation

yeah, it works or it doesn't, lol

iirc 403 if wrong or disabled api key, 404 if no images found

502?

got a lot of these last night

is out of our hands, thats the server responding

bad gateway I believe

what time did you get those?

1am UK time

as it seems like every day ovh drop one of the ips for 15 minutes

niot that then, it was 21:13 UK time

hmm

its not happening today

for the same movies

I like the api

I need to put my app on the windows store this week, if I generate some cash ill grab a vip account

is there a specific logo you use to show on apps

That's great,

I hope the service continues

and at the rate our traffic has increased in the last 4 day at the end of next month it will likely be 5x that

hosting images is expensive

well it's been going for 6 years now :)

track it

dropped images because it was too expensive on a monthly basis

there a big site

trakt got some of their images from us, and a lot of the devs that used to use trakt now use our api

I have spoken to justin a fair bit about it

I didn't use it , I don't really see the point in keeping a collection with them

i just manage mine from a database but ill move to cloud at some point

they are trying to shift 850TB/mo

eh

a lot of storage

but I suspect that was just the limit cloudflare we putting on them as when they moved to our api we transferred over 300TB in just 3 days

until our service provider limited our speeds earlier this morning

really

are u in the uk?

yeah

but the servers aren't

running with BT?

Ah

we have 3 servers with online.net for images, each server was maxing out the 2.5Gbps connection

2 in amsterdam 1 in france

2.5 is a big connection

usually 1Gb got a business line

then the main API server is on a server in france on SYS with 4 supporting vps's also in france on OVH

they are limited to 250mbps and 100mbps respectively

ok

u seem to be on top of oit :)

we had to add the vps servers as SYS decided the traffic to the main server was an attack and null routed the ip

so now we are balancing the requests between all 5

load balancing is the best way

well it's just round robin, only option really due to the limited port speeds

would you like to see some screens of my windows store app ?

sure

developed by popular demand based on Movee8 created a couple of years back

cant upload image here but i can create a dropbox link

ok

bah need an email address

try that

that works here

should be 11 images in there

you can see your fanart in image 10

love the disc images you provide :)

that's why i went with the api

just looking now, was getting a coffee

the app will manage a collection on a network and allow you to cast to any networked tv

nice little streaming feature

looks good

just passed certification on the store last night so I'm happy about that :)

I personally use plex

1 bug that i know if at this point that i need to fix before i upload it

the colour scheme adapts to the colour chosen in your windows theme, so its not always that colour

but I could see yours being a decent solution for people that don't want to run a seperate media server as well

and are using windows

:) that's the plan

I'm building a home cinema in the garden, this app will manage the lot from a single nas drive and the help of DLNA :)

roof for the outhouse goes on Saturday, looking forward to getting inside started lol
