The log is truncated. At snip snap would be the other 14 movies. All have a number (duration in seconds?) after the path as the example. I have also webminer installed. Maybe this interferes.

Hi, my first guess would be that there is a problem with the qdbus call :) it seems that the lines that should be printed before each qdbus call are missing from the output. or maybe you are not running the last version. were there more lines including the url and uri?

and yes the duration is in seconds. by the way, was the movies duration update was successful?

The log above is the whole output. Nothing before, nothing afterwards. The videos were not updated. The videos known to nepomuk on the first run got the duration. The 15 without duration were added after the first run of your script.

I have qdbus from QT4 4.8.5 installed. I guess it is the latest.

I meant the script version.

I did not understand what you wrote. >The videos were not updated. so no video was updated? >The videos known to nepomuk on the first run got the duration. does it mean they were updated successfully? >The 15 without duration were added after the first run of your script. the videos were added? were they updated by the script? thanks, YB

I had some videos on my computer and ran your script version 0.1. The duration was set and is visible in Dolphin. I added more videos, but the duration didn't get updated anymore. I also tried version 0.2 of your script with no effort. The script extracts the duration but fails to write it into the database.

what is the difference between the first set of videos to the second set? is the second set known to Nepomuk? are they of type nmm:Movie or nmm:TVShow ? are they available or on a removable device?

after a software update I ran into the same error message ...abstract property... reinstalling nepomuk-core solved the problem. please try and tell me if it solved your problem.
