I'm using the https://www.giantbomb.com/api/videos/ endpoint to fetch a list of videos. Each video has an "image" object with a number of resized image urls. Recently - for some videos - every URL except the "original_url" fails to load with the following error message: "The specified key does not exist." Here are a few examples:

Let me know if you need more info!

Looks like this was fixed last week. Thanks for the quick fix!

Hi there! I'm unable to filter by any video show at the moment. For example:

https://www.giantbomb.com/api/videos?filter=video_show:23&limit=50&format=json&api_key=[api_key]

returns a list of all recent videos instead of just "Bring Your B-Game". Did I miss a change in the API spec recently?

Also possibly related: the videos API is no longer returning a video show, but is instead sending a show object:

"show": { "api_detail_url": "https://www.giantbomb.com/api/show/2340-3/", "id": 3, "title": "Quick Looks", "position": 0, "site_detail_url": "https://www.giantbomb.com/shows/quick-looks/", "image": { "icon_url": "https://www.giantbomb.com/api/image/square_avatar/2853576-gblogo.png", "medium_url": "https://www.giantbomb.com/api/image/scale_medium/2853576-gblogo.png", "screen_url": "https://www.giantbomb.com/api/image/screen_medium/2853576-gblogo.png", "screen_large_url": "https://www.giantbomb.com/api/image/screen_kubrick/2853576-gblogo.png", "small_url": "https://www.giantbomb.com/api/image/scale_small/2853576-gblogo.png", "super_url": "https://www.giantbomb.com/api/image/scale_large/2853576-gblogo.png", "thumb_url": "https://www.giantbomb.com/api/image/scale_avatar/2853576-gblogo.png", "tiny_url": "https://www.giantbomb.com/api/image/square_mini/2853576-gblogo.png", "original_url": "https://www.giantbomb.com/api/image/original/2853576-gblogo.png", "image_tags": "All Images" } }

Hey all! Thanks for using the app. Sorry for the late responses to the questions/requests in this thread:

Re Android TV support: Don't have any plans to support this at the moment, sorry. It's a decent amount of development effort and would require some major changes to the app.

Also, hopefully the SD card issues should be resolved going forward with the v2.2.0 update. Check it out! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.colinrtwhite.videobomb

@lutonhatter: Not at the moment, sorry, but I'm actively working on SD card (+ livestream) support!

@jamin724: Thanks! I just pushed an update with dark mode + a compact list view since those features were the most requested. Next on my list is SD card support + live videos.

@alecgdouglas: Oh sick! I completely missed that. Thanks for the heads up - implementing it in now.

@pop: I'll see if I can squeeze that into this next update (probably tomorrow). If not it'll definitely be in a future update (had a couple requests for that feature). Thanks for using the app!

@forcen: Yeah I definitely want to add this as well. Currently, the GB APIs don't support getting video progress in bulk (only one video per request), but once they do I'll jump on it.

EDIT: I'm wrong about this - see alecgdouglas' post below.

@twolines: Yeah :( I really tried to work around this (I also have a 2nd gen Chromecast), but wasn't able to so I have to display a warning.
