Jellyfin and thetvdb API not working

[eycer1995]

Recently I set up a Jellyfin server with a RPi4 mainly used to watch anime. After using it a few months with AniDB I didn't like the way it organizes the anime, so I want to switch to thetvdb.

HW: RPi4
Version 10.7.6
OS: Raspbian

Since it wasn't working with the default API from the tvdb plugin I paid the tvdb subscription to get my own "Legacy API key" like they called it thinking that may be the problem, but after changing the API key still can't get any metadata from the tvdb.

What am I doing wrong?

I'm following the naming scheme of tvdb for my anime library.

I also tried to manually identifying the anime with thetvdb ID but only got synopsis and the cast info, not the images.

Is the problem Jellyfin? Thetvdb? me? Any suggestions? Please help.

The logs show this:

I got the same Problem

[crobibero]

Is it erroring on every query, or just some? We haven’t changed the plugin code recently so if it’s erroring for every show it’s on TVDBs end.

[crobibero]

@ontheflow your issue is different from the original issue. Yours has Resource temporarily unavailable (api.thetvdb.com:443). This means that TheTVDB's API went down, and there's nothing we can do to fix that.

@crobibero maybe i tried to often, i will try again in a few days

Switching from MacVlan to Host in Docker solved my Problem
