YAML unable to build playout

[undone prawn]

I'm running into this error when trying to expand my single show example from last night:

Unable to build playout 73: Unexpected error building playout for channel YAML Test: The instance of entity type 'OtherVideo' cannot be tracked because another instance with the same key value for {'Id'} is already being tracked. When attaching existing entities, ensure that only one entity instance with a given key value is attached. Consider using 'DbContextOptionsBuilder.EnableSensitiveDataLogging' to see the conflicting key values.

are you able to dm me your db? that might be the easiest way to repro

[undone prawn]

Haha yeah let me zip it up… it’s a bit large

[brittle cargo]

thanks it repros using that

fix building here https://github.com/ErsatzTV/ErsatzTV/actions/runs/16699649550 - windows should be a minute or two faster now. i have the dotnet stuff building on linux and the rust (tray launcher) building on windows, then bring them together to zip up lol

Will update in a bit

aight, running into a similar issue as before. I've checked the YAML, and while I can't guarantee every search will actually yield episode/show matches, that's next, I feel like the YAML itself is valid, but i'm getting:

8/4/2025 2:48:51 PM     Warning     Failed to validate YAML schedule definition: ["JSON is valid against no schemas from 'oneOf'. Path 'content[7]', line 1, position 841."]```

the db from before should work with it

[brittle cargo]

let me show you what i do - it's two steps but it works ok

https://onlineyamltools.com/convert-yaml-to-json

https://www.jsonschemavalidator.net/

step 1 - put your yaml in the thing to convert to json

step 2 - download this file and put it in the left side of the schema validator https://github.com/ErsatzTV/ErsatzTV/blob/main/ErsatzTV/Resources/yaml-playout.schema.json

step 3 - put your converted json in the right side of the schema validator

step 4 - profit

the error also points you to the 8th item in the content list (starts with zero)

content[7]

Failed to validate YAML schedule definition: ["JSON is valid against no schemas from 'oneOf'. Path 'content[7]', line 1, position 841."]

Shibby

got that all fixed, now I'm adjusting the content searches/etc to make sure it actually matches the naming... I have this YAML that says it validates against the schema on that schema validator site, but I'm getting this:

Failed to validate YAML schedule definition: ["JSON is valid against no schemas from 'oneOf'. Path 'content[31]', line 1, position 3905."]

I suspect it's where I changed a search to a show with a tvdb ID (Avatar the last airbender)

can you mix searches and shows in the content block?

[brittle cargo]

yeah it should be no problem to mix, will take a look here when i can. the json conversion isn't exactly the same as that site, unfortunately. will let you know what i find

try quoting the guid value

[undone prawn]

    key: "AVATAR"
    guids:
      - source: "tvdb"
        value: "74852"
    order: "chronological"```

[brittle cargo]

I think it's converting to int not string

I can try to fix schema if that works

[undone prawn]

isn't it already quoted there?

could prob chang it to imdb

[brittle cargo]

oh yeah weird

ill def have to update the schema, it converted to an int in json

[undone prawn]

gotcha, yeah I changed to imdb and it worked

[brittle cargo]

What that's crazy

Oh with tt

[undone prawn]

yeah

figured that would force the issue

[brittle cargo]

ok, i think i have it fixed to accept both

[brittle cargo]

okay, added a built in yaml validation tool #features-and-changes message

lol

[undone prawn]

lol nice
