automating BMT fetch?

[drewg]

I'm using V7 with BMT installed.

I have a script that automatically imports the daily show. The script ensures that the filenames contain the "S15E134" style names that are BMT friendly. I can fetch the metadata for an episode using the gui from my extender. But I'd like to automate it, so that the import script fetches the metadata.

My question is: Is there a single URL that I can hit to cause BMT to fetch the metadata for a particular media file? Or directory tree? Right now, I do:

wget -O /dev/null --user=sage --password=frey http://127.0.0.1:8080/sage/GlobalCommand?command=UpdateMediaLibrary

to force an update of the media library so that SageTV sees the file. Is there something similar I can do to force BMT to update the show's metadata? Perhaps by forcing a scan of a directory tree (like /video/video/daily)

Thanks,
Drew

I'm pretty sure BMT has a setting that you can enable to automatically fetch the metadata when the file is scanned by Sage.

Duh, thanks. I turned that off when having some recording problems (which were a core sagetv / linux bug that Qian has now fixed), and promptly forgot all about the setting. I've turned it on...
