Gaps currently reports future releases as missing

[m-theredhead]

When I run gaps, it is suggesting movies like Avatar 2, 3, 4, and 5 which are slated to be released over the next 6 years.

Could we exclude not yet released movies from the recommendation of gaps? I don't see the value of having them in the report when they can't be purchased and added to your collection.

Thoughts?

I can make that change. The only caveat is that I would still have movies released this year based on the current code. I'm working with a release year, not a release date.

[m-theredhead]

Thanks,

That seems reasonable. In the same year would at least be near term and something to watch for.

I also just found these 'gaps' in my collection

I simple approach might be

if movie release date > today
  skip

[hausner]

i would love to see this feature as well. seanhamlin's solution would be sufficient from my point of view

just leaving a comment to say I'd love this feature as I'm having loads of upcoming Marvel movies along with Avatar sequels

I'm working on a branch now. I'll push to Alpha today or tomorrow for you to test. I'll let you know when. The option right now is searching for All movies or only Released movies. This is under Settings > TMDB.

housewrecker/gaps:alpha is pushed. Please test out the improvement.

After using the Advanced option "Delete All Stored Data" and after updating my library and doing a search from scratch, I'm still seeing upcoming movies (such as John Wick 4 (2023), Avatar 3 (2024), etc.). I did make sure to select the "Released" option

[JasonHHouse]

@Droppisalt This was on alpha or latest?

[Droppisalt]

Sorry for the delay. It's in the alpha version

You don't need to delete all stored data, you can just update to "Released" and re-search. I just tested again and it's working with Avatar and John Wick and Gaps blocked them correctly for me. When I switched to all, all movies show up. I'm going to need to see your logs to know what is going on with your docker.

[m-theredhead]

I just tested and had good results. I set it to released and rescanned. I am no longer seeing movies like avatar, etc as missing.

[Droppisalt]

Ahh I've redone a search and it seems to be working for me now as well. I think it just didn't update to Released properly the 1st time

[Droppisalt]

Yep, not even showing Avatar 2 which still has a release date set for 2022!

[Andrewpaps]

Reporting fixed for me, excellent work.

[JasonHHouse]

Merged and pushed to latest.
