16 May 2020, 19:06

https://www.netflix.com/title/80212986

yeah thats super weird... must be a bug with the new pull code... everything should be either a series or a movie

16 May 2020, 19:10

If they not displays the type "show", can be found in "New last 7 days" (being today's date) with the aforementioned titles.

this 'show' stuff should be fixed

16 May 2020, 19:37

Expiring titles are not working at this moment!

Why never you have ordered alphabetically the countries in title's preview when in further info are ordered? The order would be the following:

If they are all the 34 countries:

Current Order:

1st» Canada
2nd» France
3rd» Germany
4th» Netherlands
5th» Poland
6th» United Kingdom
7th» United States
8th» Argentina
9th» Australia
10th» Belgium

The rest of countries are ordered alphabetically.

New Order:

1st» Argentina
2nd» Australia
3rd» Belgium
4th» Brazil
5th» Canada
6th» Czech Republic
7th» France
8th» Germany
9th» Greece
10th» Hong Kong

If you can do it if is necessary.

There's a Netflix original title with the year zero (0):
https://www.netflix.com/title/81156880

It supposes that is the most recent (see date on Globally new to unoGS).

re: Expiring titles... examples or it didn't happen

17 May 2020, 08:39

@admin Here's one of over 30 leaving Netflix US: https://www.netflix.com/title/80047200

17 May 2020, 09:50

Strange - expiring seemed to be updated for the countries with earlier problems but now Canada, Mexico, US and UK are all back to zero titles.

17 May 2020, 09:57

Here's a selection of expiring titles for Canada

I really wish Netflix would choose a lane regarding expiring formats :(, hopefully. this will be fixed in the next pull

17 May 2020, 16:15

Thanks for including Mexico again

18 May 2020, 16:07

Can I just ask that next time there are problems like these (and there have been a couple of instances over the years), not to have 0 data coming in but to keep stale data. For example, it would have been inconsequential to keep Netflix Mexico data for a few days, albeit a little stale, rather than have nothing.

admin · 18 May 2020, 16:12

We did keep stuff up for quite a while before folks started complaining about data being incorrect, the only reason we pulled those countries when we did was because we honestly thought they weren't coming back for a while. To be honest we came pretty close to just shutting the whole operation down...

admin · 18 May 2020, 16:13

oh, and MX is back... we are back up to 27 countries

18 May 2020, 18:11

In Country Detail, if there are more than 100 titles added (e.g. 120), the maximum value is 100 and will not show the rest of the titles.

admin · 19 May 2020, 08:27

correct, please use Advanced Search if you want a full list..

You can specify days back in the search query using the format new last x y where x is a number y is a time period.
e.g
select a country
and search for new last 5 days

19 May 2020, 13:23

All of these titles added within the past 48 hours are missing from your US listings:
