Watchlist issue - tried all fixes

[mental flame]

I've followed multiple guides to fix the 404 error, nothing is resolving it. Any guidance?

• Upgraded to develop branch
• signed out/in
• used override command/entrypoint
• tried rychannel/overseerr from 3 week ago post in github

Is there anything else I can try?

[bright wharf]

Overseerr develop branch wont fix it

The fix only lives in seerr develop

And will be in stable once seerr releases. Overseerr image is no longer developed against so we didnt push a fix to it

[mental flame]

hmm ok the posts on the github definately made it seem like the develop branch fixes it

Thanks. I will try out Seer

what is the image address to try the develop branch of seer ?

(I will make a fresh instance, I saw the warning that it will corrupt overseer config)

so to try the beta, do I just update my overseer stack to pull from "ghcr.io/seerr-team/seerr:develop" ?

[bright wharf]

There was one pr attempted but the rest of the fixes only made it to seerr develop

[bright wharf]

No

Thats for third-party images

Literally the whole point of seerr is compatibility with overseer config

[mental flame]

ok I tried to upgrade it but it got stuck I think on permissions

[bright wharf]

Please do read the migrations guide posted in channel description of #seerr-beta

[bright wharf]

Its addressed on the migration guide 😉

[mental flame]

thanks 🙂 I'll check it out later

Appreciate it

[bright wharf]

No worries. Ping me if you have any issues 😉

[mental flame]

Ok I'm on the other side, all migrated but one feature that was working in the "fresh" install, that is not seeming to work in the upgraded setup, is auto requesting items on my wishlist. wishlist is populating, but it does not auto request. Setting looks fine

[bright wharf]

You might need to relogin

In that user

[mental flame]

tried that

[bright wharf]

Or reset the setting

[mental flame]

tried that too saved it off then back on

[bright wharf]

Hmm. Weird. It works for everyone else 🤔

Did you go from overseerr -> seerr and not jellyseerr right?

[mental flame]

I know it worked fine in my fresh install once I upgraded it isn't working

correct

[bright wharf]

I was talking about upgraded users above ^

Can you send your logs

[mental flame]

yes i know 😉

logs don't show an error i'll paste them

[bright wharf]

Could yiu go to settings > jobs&cache

And run the watchlist job

Then send logs

[mental flame]

sure. It's grabbing the new watchlist items just fine btw

hmm might have just started working

[bright wharf]

[mental flame]

oh

wait

does it only add them to radar when the job runs, not when you manually refresh the watchlist and it pulls new movies?

[bright wharf]

What do yiu mean by manually refresh watchlist

[mental flame]

If I go to my watchlist from discover

[bright wharf]

But yeah its job wise. So as to not spam

[mental flame]

and i refresh the webpage, it will will pull new movies I just added

but it won't add them to radarr until I manually run the job or (I guess) if it runs on schedule

[bright wharf]

It will always run on schedule

You can set different timing if you need

[mental flame]

I get it, I realize now refresh of webpage is not the same as running that job (I assumed it was )

[bright wharf]

Also im glad. Because watchlist is one thing I cannot easily help troubleshoot bc I dont have a premium pass

[mental flame]

can I flush the watchlist, and then re run the job, so it adds anything that isn't already requested ?

[bright wharf]

Was gonna try and help blindly

[mental flame]

You don't have a premium pass?

do they still sell lifetime?

[bright wharf]

Yes. I run jellyfin as my main. My plex is purely for dev purposes 😉

[mental flame]

is jellyfin better than Plex yet? I have tried it a bunch over the years, keep waiting for it to be just as polished.

[bright wharf]

So i dont want to waste money on it. I think sct and zehn has premium pass. So we got our roles divided

[mental flame]

(Plex keeps getting worse)

[bright wharf]

For me yes

Its gotten really better over the past years

Even hwa is much better on jellyfin

And im a fan of foss which is what jellyfin is 😉

But i still keep a plex account purely for dev purposes

It has 1 movie only 🤣

[mental flame]

is this a bug:

only on watchlist sync , new frequencies are not the same all all other job choices

[bright wharf]

Not a bug

On purpose

[mental flame]

so default is 10 min, but new choices are 30/45/60 and no way to change back to 10 min?

[bright wharf]

If you want flexibility on frequency we provide it via settings.json

Cron timings

[mental flame]

yes i just thoguht it was interesting some jobs have 5, 10 min choices, watchlist and a few others have 30,45 seconds

[bright wharf]

Hmm. I think that coupd be an implementation leftover. We originally did small seconds then increased to 10 mins but probably forgot to change the default values

[bright wharf]

Watchlist should be more frequent than most jobs

[mental flame]

gotcha

[bright wharf]

Like radarr/sonarr/media availability and full scan should never run every 5 mins

That will have your server hogging

[bright wharf]

Do remember to switch to latest when we release 😉

[mental flame]

Looking forward to it

I know we spoke a few weeks ago, is there somewhere i can submit my feature request for a way to browse "collections" ?

[bright wharf]

I think its already requested. Have a quick search in https://github.com/seerr-team/seerr/issues page and if its not there make a feature request there

[mental flame]

yup it's there

Will be such a great feature

[bright wharf]

Our focus rn is seerr stable release but will be adding new features once its released

[mental flame]

Lately I've been giving my tautulli exported plex library to Gemini and having it find me movies I am missing from my collection that are great, highly rated, award winning, etc, this would be a fun way to use collections in Seerr, with hide available, you could browse "best of" and "top 250" etc,

[bright wharf]

There is a feature request for mcp support
