eztv.ag shows many episodes that aren't showing up in the api :(

Popcorn Time doesn't host any of the content. The content on Popcorn Time is pulled off third party sources. If you want to watch content which isn't available via Popcorn Time you can use the Torrent Collection feature.

@ChrisAlderson I'm not using Popcorn Time. I'm directly searching your api which I thought collected it's tv data from eztv.ag?

Where can I submit the latest seasons to have them show up in the "popcorn api"?

Is the "scraper" failing to pick up on these episodes?

No, it work as intended. The missing episodes have tv show value set to "Other TV Shows" instead of "The Handmaid's Tale".

Else contact eztv staff and ask them if they can fix the Tv Show value of those missing episodes. Fixing data at the source is the best compromise for everyone

edit: in fact, I wonder if they don't use a scrapper themself and "Other TV Shows" is probably a fallback value when tv show name isn't well detected :/

@Persei08 Episodes 4-10 from season 1 are also set to "Other TV Shows" but it seemed to get those fine?

@mattjis Yes you're right, i know. I'm pretty sure Episodes 4-10 were added manually. So, if for some reason, nobody add the season 2 episodes manually to the PT API, the only other way for having them in the PT API is to ask eztv staff to fix the TV show value of those episodes. I'm just giving the information
