Feature Request: Mark available by scanning plex library or reading download #421

Open strikerjjb opened 7 years ago

strikerjjb commented 7 years ago

Right now I have to go in an manually mark the available check mark. This would be much easier if a scan of the plex library could be executed on a timer and show that the content is available.

This feature seems to go in and out as Plex makes changes. Usually Loken and the others here are quick to fix it. Reference

tidusjar commented 7 years ago

This could be due to some new API changes in Plex version 1.3

Running latest Plex pass version of Plex and latest Sonarr, episode availability is working just fine here. just had a few series added over the last couple days and all show available with the correct episode counts.

Haven't looked in a while but I think the availability scan is done via a cron job that runs every hour, try requesting something and waiting an couple hours and see if it updates.

I assume you're using CouchPotato for movies? Is it updated and working as usual?

There's numerous steps you can take in this thread to see if it's talking properly.

I don't know if this is exactly what @strikerjjb is asking about but I, personally, am not using CouchPotato, so I'd love to see a feature to check availability based on an item's presence in the Plex library.

RickyGrassmuck commented 7 years ago

@tylerforesthauser I'm going to take a look at how the PlexPy guys implemented this and will see about making it happen. This is something I've wanted too so it may be bumped up my list.

@rigrassm That sounds great! Thanks!

strikerjjb commented 7 years ago

@tylerforesthauser @rigrassm I was talking about availability in the plex library.

RickyGrassmuck commented 7 years ago

@strikerjjb, that's what I assumed you meant. The idea would be to scan the Plex library every so often (once every hour give or take) and cache the data to use in between scans.

This is definitely something I want to do but as mentioned before I do have some other things that need to be done before adding in a whole new feature.

@rigrassm Not sure if you know this already or not, but apparently the .NET version has a plex checker (https://github.com/lokenx/plexrequests-meteor/issues/305#issuecomment-217662930). Although I use the meteor one myself.
