Question - Redownloaded media #8

Closed aleksasiriski closed 1 year ago

aleksasiriski commented 1 year ago

So, some media is watched and is deleted after X days, what happens when that same media gets downloaded again?

If it instantly gets deleted again I think that's wrong. I'll probably later look at the code and add some PRs but my question is now: Does it use some database that it clears after successfuly deleting something?

Correct, it'll be deleted on next scheduled task run.

Does it use some database that it clears after successfuly deleting something?

No, plugin uses Played and LastPlayedDate fields Jellyfin is in charge of.

I don't mind the option to reset watch state upon deletion. So when media downloaded again it'll be marked as unwatched, which is kinda makes sense.
