Alternate Scene Sources

Alternate Scene Sources allows to match scene from one site with scenes from another site. e.g. You may have set up scraping scenes from Sexbabesvr but have subscriptions to SLR or VRPorn. You can match the Sexbabesvr scenes on SLR or VRPorn with the scenes you scraped from Sexbabesvr. This does not create an additional scene, just a link from the sexbabes scenes you scraped to matches from other site.

Features

  • Filter scenes which are "Available from Alternate Sites".
  • You can match from multiple alternate sources, e.g. SLR, VRPorn, POVR
  • File Matching will also match on filenames from the Alternate Site
  • Search for a scene based on the Alternate Site Url
  • The Scene card in the scene list display will icons/links for alternate sources. This will also include links to Stashdb.
  • Sort scenes from most recently linked to another source
  • Script attribute filters can check alternate sources for scripts
  • Configurable matching rules, can be different for different sources
  • View scene detail from alternate source
  • Override matches

To setup an Alternate Source for Scenes, create a new Custom Site and specify the site you are matching it with in the "Main Site" dropdown selection. It is recommended to specify an Avatar URL for the Site hosting the studio, e.g. SLR, VRPorn, POVR, not Sexbabes. This is the icon is shown in the scene card for links to alternate sources, it makes more sense to show icons for the hosting site, not just more Sexbabes icons.

Match Rules

Scenes are matched from alternate sources with your XBVR scenes using the QuickFind search engine. To understand more of the search functions, see https://github.com/xbapps/xbvr/wiki/Scene-Searching-in-XBVR.

In most cases the search matching will work fairly well, but there are cases where a site can or should be modified to make better matches. The following fields are used for matching:

  • Title
  • Release Date
  • Duration
  • Cast
  • Description

The following parameters can be modified for each site.

  • Delay linking (days) - default 0 days. Will not try to match a scene until x days after it was released. This is useful for cases like matching LethalHardcoreVr from SLR or VRPorn where a scene will often appear on those sites before they are listed on the LethalHarcore site.
  • Keep Re-linking(days) - default 0. The matching process will keep looking for the best match for x days after the release date, also useful in the cases where the scene may appear on the alternate site first.
  • Ignore scenes released prior to a certain date from the alternate site. Older scenes can be more problematic, as sites were more lack with their metadata.
  • Title
    • Boost factor for Complete Exact Title matches
    • Boost factor for individual words from the title matching
  • Release Date
    • Options for Do not match, Should Match, Must Match. Default Should match.
    • Boost Factor for matches - default 2.
    • Match days prior or after the release date, e.g. where the release date is 30 prior and p to 5 days later. Default range 14 days prior and 7 days after.
