Incorrect air times for many shows lately

Hello,

I’ve been noticing a lot of incorrect air times for shows lately that seem to get resolved after some time. Two current examples are Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (https://trakt.tv/shows/last-week-tonight-with-john-oliver) and Blackish (https://trakt.tv/shows/black-ish).

Any idea what’s going on and why these are not accurate all of a sudden?

Thanks!

I’m actually working on this bug right now and hope to have a fix out tomorrow. It seems the main show air time is affected, but episodes seem to be correct. Is that what you’re seeing too?

Yep, that’s what I’m seeing. Just the show air times are looking incorrect.

The bug fix is live and hopefully this won’t be a problem moving forward. Any messed up times will need a refresh (or will refresh on its own in the next few days). Behind the scenes, I’m storing the time in a different format that should be more reliable.

Hi Justin,

I’m still seeing the issue with https://trakt.tv/shows/superman-and-lois and https://trakt.tv/shows/total-dramarama

Thanks!

https://trakt.tv/shows/total-dramarama looks ok to me. https://trakt.tv/shows/superman-and-lois is incorrect, but it’s actually an issue related to using TMDB as the primary data scraper for that show. I’ll make a small update to fix that.

Hey @justin, The Mandalorian Disney Gallery series has the wrong run time on the episodes. On TVDB, it’s the right one, but here it says 1hour for each episode.

EDIT: Same thing for The Crown, Emily in Paris, The Witcher, and probably a lot more I didn’t check.

@Malococsis This topic was about the air date and time, not the runtime of the episodes. We get the general runtime from TMDB and TVDB, but not episode specific runtimes yet. We’re moving to TMDB for this info and hopefully they add per episode runtimes that we can use in the near future.

Hey @justin, two more shows that are showing incorrect air times are the-falcon-and-the-winter-soldier and zack-snyder-s-justice-league-165983.

Air date and times are pulled from TVDB and TVMaze, are they correct in both places?
