Feature Request: Combined view #13

Be cool if instead of whole seasons it could just show the most current episodes. Or even just the most current combined library content. I like the idea of almost replicating the plex home screen on a tab in home assistant like this where it can then control a player device on the network. Then I'd just have to find a way to sneak in some basic player controls for play/pause and next, I'd have the perfect tab for friday night!

Is this similar to https://github.com/JurajNyiri/PlexMeetsHomeAssistant/issues/10 ? How is it different?

mavermc commented 3 years ago

It is a bit similar, on Deck is probably the most important feature, that also has to tie in with a specific user, idk if plex tokens are user based or just plex account based. But it's a little different because what I was asking was for: image Where it shows you individual episodes, as they come out, where currently all I could get out of plexmeetshome was to show me the newest "shows" added, not episodes. So just to clue into my behavior, I use on deck, or recently added tv (which shows episodes) to click on the next thing to watch. I don't typically browse to a show and then to an episode. The combined view I was asking for is not something that exists anywhere (as far as I know) where both new movies and new episodes are all on 1 feed. as far as I know plex doesn't have a native way to combine libraries like that. But since i'm a user who typically is looking for "something new to watch" my focus is sort content by date, nevermind what library it's apart of.

Hope that makes sense. for what it's worth I think "On Deck" should be higher priority, but considering that's a "per user" based info it might be more difficult to implement then just showing "newest episodes" vs "newest shows"

On Deck and Recently Added are now available in the newest version.

libraryName: Deck libraryName: Recently Added

I will leave this open for combined view.
