RE: HowLongToBeat - icetoseeyoufr - 12-21-2021

I noticed one thing, and i don't know if it come from the plugin or howlongtobeat itself. But let's suppose i search for the data to "fear effect 2 - Retro Helix" and it will find nothing

But if i search for "Fear effect 2 Retro helix" without the "-" it will find the correct game. No idea if it is a limitation from the plugin itself or how long to beat.

It is the search for howlongtobeat that does not ignore this character.
I will normalize the name of the game before I search for it.


RE: HowLongToBeat - icetoseeyoufr - 12-22-2021

Damn, that's a shame, i'll have to edit my whole library to remove all "-" from it... well let's get to work!

It's not necessary.
The last release normalizes the game name before a search.

Oh, thank you very much!

I think the last Update broke "HowLongToBeat"...
I get Database Error when i try to view the dates on every game, Playnite crashes when I click on the "howlongtobeat" button that is integrated into the eMixedNiteMC Theme. And in the Extensions settings, on the HowLongToBeat tab, I get "Failed to load settings"...

Can you post the crash log?

Here it is :
Crash Log

P.S. Saw you updated the extension to 2.7.1. It's crashing still...The last working version is 2.6


RE: HowLongToBeat - Rhaziel - 01-04-2022

Thank You!
Update 2.8 fixed it!


RE: HowLongToBeat - jeehbs - 01-06-2022

Hi, I am new to working on themes and i have a question. Is it possible to format the time that comes from 
<ContentControl x:Name="HowLongToBeat_PluginViewItem"  />
I would like to it to display only the hours. I looked at https://github.com/Lacro59/playnite-howlongtobeat-plugin/wiki/Addition-in-a-custom-theme and i think TimeToBeatFormat is my answer, however I have tried a couple of things and nothing has worked. 

I am trying to show in the detail list view on the left. I want it to look something like:
[icon] Game 1        5h
[icon] Game 2      60h

Actually, no.
Can you open an issue on GitHub for this?

Just wanted to pop in to thank you for for this plugin. It's extremely useful


RE: HowLongToBeat - sofmarch - 01-17-2022

Having an odd bug with the new update. Everytime I hit a game's Play action it brings up the menu to search for and download the HLTB data.


RE: HowLongToBeat - Watoosh - 01-17-2022

Hi, just wanted to let you know that after the latest update the plugin started to pester me about the status of my entire collection (or at least a large portion of it) one game at a time, with no option to abort or automate the process. I have over 2000 games in my collection, so this development made the plugin completely unworkable for me, and I had to disable it for now in safe mode.


RE: HowLongToBeat - icetoseeyoufr - 01-18-2022

I wanted to just update my metadata, but how long to beat keep popping up every games... So i disabled it for now. Tell me when the thing is updated.

Reverted to 2.8, now it's working as intended

It's fixed with the last release.


RE: HowLongToBeat - icetoseeyoufr - 01-18-2022

Oh well that was quick, thanks for the awesome work!


RE: HowLongToBeat - Supermedo - 02-28-2022

Hi, first I wanted to thank you for the awesome plugin and it is really fantastic and it helps me with clearing my backlog.

My question is, is there way to set completed tag while uploading my playtime in howlongtobeat, for example I set the completion status in playnite for my completed game as completed and when I click on "set your current playtime for all games" it update the playtime but it add games in howlongtobeat as "playing" only.

You can only set completed time for one game at a time with game menu.
If you wish to do it for all games, you must open an issue on GitHub.

Thanks I didn't notice, I can select all the games I want and bulk update that way, so no need to waste your time to add additional feature.
