Welcome @lone dew!

Someone from <@&938443185347244033> will assist when they're available.

Including the meta.log from the beginning is a huge help, type !logs for more information.

Your alignment is off, as it stands you're defining 2 playlists, one called Marvel Cinematic Universe and one called plex_search, from the plex_search line onwards everything needs shifting to the right 2 spaces

Something like

playlists:
  Marvel Cinematic Universe:
    sync_mode: sync
    libraries: Movies, TvShows
    plex_search:
      any:
        studio.begins: Marvel
        title.isnot: Marvel's Iron Fist, Marvel's Luke Cage, What If...?
        plays.lt: 1
    sort_by: release.asc
    summary: MCU```

Also is your TV library called TvShows? The mapping name needs to match so if the library is actually called `TV Shows` then that'll need to be changed too

Not sure if this'll actually work or not, but it'd probably be easier to just create a trakt list and the odd new movie/show manually every so often

YAML attachment checked and is valid.

Note that valid YAML does not guarantee that it is formatted in a way that Plex Meta Manager expects.

Plex Error: No Items found in Plex

The criteria defined by a search/filter returned 0 results.

This is often expected - for example, if you try to apply a 1080P overlay to a 4K library then no items will get the overlay since no items have a 1080P resolution.

It is worth noting that search and filters are case-sensitive, so "1080P" and "1080p" are treated as two separate things.

📁 Attachment Detected: playlists.log 📁

I see you attached a file 📁playlists.log📁. Would you like Luma to parse that for you and make some recommendations? Default value of No/Red X will be selected after 180 seconds.

This doesn't seem to be the same as what mikenobbs posted

#

his has

    plex_search:
      any:
        studio.begins: Marvel

your log shows:

Match any of the following: 
  Studio is Marvel Studios

floral pilot Sep 21, 2023, 3:37 PM

#

One way would be to create a list at MDBlist, which would automatically update a trakt list.

neat pivot Sep 21, 2023, 3:37 PM

#

and this shouldn't really be an any

#

    plex_search:
      any:
        studio.begins: Marvel
        title.isnot: Marvel's Iron Fist, Marvel's Luke Cage, What If...?
        plays.lt: 1

This is going to add anything that has less than one play, OR the title is not one of those things, OR the studio begins with Marvel

neat pivot Sep 21, 2023, 4:29 PM

#

can you send the entire meta.log file please

#

Quite the opposite

#

It will put everything with no plays in it

#

regardless of the title or studio

#

drop the entire meta.log please

**PMM Recommendation 6**

⏰ PMM SCHEDULED TIME RECOMMENDATION:
PMM Scheduled start time: 5:00
Plex Scheduled Maintenance start time: 8:00
Plex Scheduled Maintenance end time: 23:00
Change PMM start time to 23:00, a time outside of Plex maintenance times. Currently, there is a 180 minute buffer before the next Plex maintenance at: 8:00. By changing PMM start time to 23:00, you will have a 9 hours buffer until the next Plex maintenance.

Your Plex maintenance is set from 8am to 11pm. Typically it’s set from 2am-5am. This way PMM can run at 5am which is your PMM schedule.
You are behind on the releases and should update PMM.

tall whale Sep 22, 2023, 12:14 PM

They won’t, however trying to be preemptive on future issues you might have.

tall whale Sep 30, 2023, 11:21 AM

Anything else needed here?

floral pilot Oct 4, 2023, 6:26 PM

#

Have you tried creating your own list rather than doing this as a search?

floral pilot Oct 9, 2023, 1:32 PM

#

A Trakt or mdblist list.

floral pilot Oct 9, 2023, 7:57 PM

#

What's the issue with automatic updates?

#

Trakt can't do that itself, but mdblist can. You can create an auto-updating list at mdblist that updates a Trakt list, and use the trakt list or the source mdblist in PMM.

neat pivot Oct 9, 2023, 11:49 PM

#

PMM can use MDBList lists directly, yes

upper gull Oct 11, 2023, 8:43 PM

#

collection_order: custom will sort the order out, mdblists can be used for playlists as well

upper gull Oct 11, 2023, 9:35 PM

#

I'm guessing there's some weird formatting there since half is in italics and there's a missing _ in collection_order, if you use 3 back ticks (```) before an after it'll format it as a code block, but on the face of it it looks ok yeah, the alignment might be off though it's hard to tell

#

playlists:
  Marvel Cinematic Universe Chronological Order:
    sync_mode: sync
    libraries: Movies, Shows
    mdblist_list: https://mdblist.com/lists/mymdblisturl
    collection_order: custom
    filters:
      plays.lt: 1 
    summary: Marvel Cinematic Universe - chronological```

floral pilot Oct 11, 2023, 9:53 PM

#

And you're using the real URL in PMM, not the placeholder you show above?

#

Don't know offhand.

#

A new public list? Perhaps results returned by the API lag behind the web?

upper gull Oct 11, 2023, 10:45 PM

#

TV Shows from 2023 would come before Movies from 2022 in descending order by release though

upper gull Oct 11, 2023, 11:17 PM

#

So it’s putting I am Groot first basically, the rest is still the right order

#

Seems like it might be

#

Which makes sense, it uses the year the show was released, I’m not sure how it’s handled when you have seasons split up within the Trakt list

can you provide the log file please

hidden escarpBOT Oct 14, 2023, 7:23 PM

#

Would you like more information on how to provide a log file?

#

Providing Log Files

1: Go to your config folder

2: Go into the logs folder

3: Look for meta.log (not meta.1.log etc)

4: Drag it in the Discord thread - the whole thing, DO NOT EDIT IT

5: Still confused? ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Log file too big? USE PASTEBIN or ZIP THE FILE

It can be done, seems like it's struggling with the Plex search across both libraries

floral pilot Oct 15, 2023, 4:57 PM

#

I believe the default playlists have such a thing.

floral pilot Oct 15, 2023, 6:51 PM

#

Question didn’t specify smart playlist.

tall whale Oct 20, 2023, 12:17 PM

#

What if you looked at our defaults that contain a playlist. I think it has both?

I can't get a plex_search to work in a playlist across library types. I think this is the first step toward what lokovic wants.

Perhaps this doesn't work, but this bit implies that plex searches do work in playlists. I can't make it work though.

For example this:

collections:
  Marvel Test:
    sync_mode: sync
    plex_search:
      all:
        studio.is: Marvel Studios

works to create a collection, but this:

playlists:
  Marvel Test:
    sync_mode: sync
    libraries: Movies, TV Shows
    plex_search:
      type: show
      all:
        studio.is: Marvel Studios

reports no items found.

This:

playlists:
  Marvel Test:
    sync_mode: sync
    libraries: TV Shows
    plex_search:
      type: show
      all:
        studio.is: Marvel Studios

creates a playlist, and the only change is that it targets just a single library.

BTW, the type: show has no effect either way.
