Hi, Would it be possible to limit which library i want to notify my users of new items?

Also it would be great if we can specify create notification groups and add emails to those groups. If i want to notify Group1 of Movies only and Group2 of Kids Movies and Movies and Group3 of Documentaries.

Thank you. Love the script.

This sounds like a duplicate of #7 . Please review that ticket and confirm.

I am debating changing the default behavior so that users only get notified of updates from libraries they have access to. If so, that should fix your second point.

nomadore commented 9 years ago

it looks like it's a duplicate of my second point. But would like to drill it down more with the library they have access to(for example: movies only, no tv shows).

My reasoning is that TV shows are shown on a weekly basis so users would know when to expect new episodes. Movies, on other hand, have different release dates so notifying them by email would be great.

True, and that can be some that is easily implemented. My reasoning with TV shows was that series can take a break for a few weeks, so notifications on new episodes was something I saw value out of.

So you think the admin should be able to specify what categories ALL users should be notified about, instead of the default of New Episodes, New Seasons, and New Movies?

Yes, that sounds great. Thank you.

Would love this also. I have some home libraries that I would like to exclude.
