Mediaelch: Rescrape of scraped movie -> actors listed multiple times.

Created on 1 Feb 2020  路  6Comments  路  Source: Komet/MediaElch

Describe the bug
When scraping an already scraped movie the actors are added once again to the actors list even if they already exist.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Open an already scraped movie.
  2. Open actors tab.
  3. Click scrape or Ctrl-F.
  4. Watch the list multiply.

Expected behavior
The list should be emptied and populated according to the scraper source or at least not having the actors already on the list added once again.

Noticed now that it's even worse than listed above.
Every time you save a movie the entire list of actors are added again.
I've checked some NFOs created from before installing the latest nightly today and some are infested with thousands of actors so this was introduced in an earlier version. By the look of my NFOs the second newest one but can't be sure.

It happens to me too.

In my previous versions it doesn't happen.

EDIT: I tested this version and it is also OK. No problems.

Confirmed. Know the cause. A fix is one the way :-)

879 fixes the issue of scraping multiple actors and also adds tests for it to avoid having this problem again in the future. I haven't yet looked into the issue of saving movies and having actors multiple times, yet. I'll do that next week. #879 should fix the most critical issue. This issue does not exist in v2.6.2 but was introduced in the nightlies about a month ago.

Saving a movie does indeed duplicate all actors! Oh my god...

The next nightly fixes this issue.

Thanks to everyone who reported and confirmed this issue. 馃憤
