The Movie Database Support

Since earlier today, I'm getting results that seem invalid JSON.

(At least unmarshalling in Go(lang) doesn't like this)

For example, with one: https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/114478?api_key=xxx&language=en-US&append_to_response=recommendations

For the genre_id I expect a struct/array. So when it's empty, it should return "genre_ids": []

However, I see a mixture of:

"genre_ids": {}, and "genre_ids": [],

I think I saw this with origin_country for TV Shows as well.

Did something change?

Hi @MarcoTC,

Yes, I know why this is happening. I'll spend some time tonight/tomorrow morning looking into it.

This is fixed for the movie and TV recommendation methods. You'll have to wait for the cache to expire (~6 or so hours) but everything should be returning a proper empty array now.

Let me know if you see this on any other methods. thumbsup_tone2

Cheers.

All looks good. Thanks!

Sorry, I talked to soon.

The same issue is with origin_country

For example: https://api.themoviedb.org/3/tv/46639?api_key=xxx&language=en-US&append_to_response=recommendations

Groovy, I'll tweak that one as well.

The genre issue is back but it's now in collections.

Here's an example:

https://api.themoviedb.org/3/collection/435259?api_key=xxxx&language=en-US

Collections should be fixed now.

Thank you!

Hello Travis,

The issue is back. I am getting both "genre_ids": {}, and "genre_ids": [],

I'm seeing it in recommendations but I'm not sure if it's in others as well. Could you please have a look?

I know why it's showing up again and will look at it first thing tomorrow morning. Thanks Marco.

Hey Marco,

Are you seeing this anymore?

No. All is working great again.

Thanks!
