Hey! I have the problem that some recently added movies are missing from the collection. If I view that titles the missing ones are shown in the collection. But now two movies are even not displayed after that workaround.
Do you know this problem and could help me with?
Thank you very much!

Which recently added collection are you talking about? Is this a plex collection or a Kometa collection

Please provide a log showing this happening and some more specifics about what exactly you mean. I for one can't parse what you mean.
young comet
Which recently added collection are you talking about? Is this a plex collection...
It's a Plex collection.
Here two screenshots:

Kometa can't manipulate collections you create in Plex.

So that’s a plex issue not a kometa issue
young comet
This is my template:
"Recently Added Movies": url_poster: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/0x5f3/kometa.config/assets/_suggested/suggested_recently-added.png schedule: daily summary: "Recently added movies" visible_home: true visible_library: true visible_shared: true template: { name: plex, num: "1" } smart_filter: any: duration.gte: 0 limit: 200 sort_by: added.desc
formal gale
That’s not the template
That might be the collection, but it references a template which we don’t see. It really seems like you are trying to recreate the same built in plex collection for recently added
ivory patio
You have yet to describe the problem clearly.
You reference "two movies" without identifying them. You have said the collection is both a Kometa collection and NOT a Kometa collection.
There is nothing in that collection definition that has anything specifically to do with "recently added", so that must be in the template which you are not providing.
You're sorting them in added order, but I'm not sure that drives the choice of which 200 are chosen initially.
formal gale
And explain the correlation between the two screenshots? One shows a header which appears to be your collection, while the first, shows what appears to be just a listing of movies in your server?
young comet
Sorry for the confusion! Here are my template "plex":
plex: collection_mode: hide delete_not_scheduled: false sort_title: "+010_<<num>>_<<collection_name>>" sync_mode: sync visible_home: false visible_library: false visible_shared: false
ivory patio
OK, so specifIcally what is the issue?
This collection contains 200 things, just not the 200 you expect?
This collection contains less than 200 things, and there are movies yuou expect to be there that are not? If so, specifically which?
Something else?
formal gale
As I see and Carrot explained, the collection is building exactly how you’ve designed it
young comet
I create a collection with the name "Recently added" with the code posted above. I use the Plex Smart Filter for this. I simply sort the movies by recently added and create a list.
However, the problem is that two films are not displayed in this collection: Ed Wood and To all the boys. I don't know why.
The two screenshots show the collection and the movie library sorted by recently added. Here you can see that the two films are not displayed in the collection, even though they were added recently.
ivory patio
Have you run Kometa since adding those two movies?
young comet
The films on the screenshot are the most recently added films. The two screenshots must contain the same movies.
ivory patio
I am just trying to gather information that might help explain what's going on.
young comet
Have you run Kometa since adding those two movies?
The collection was built with a smart filter. This should therefore not be necessary. At least it never was ... The other movies are also displayed without running Kometa again.
ivory patio
If you create the same collection in Plex using the same criteria, does the same thing happen?
young comet
I will try it. Thank you 🙂
formal gale
without manually adding the movies...
ivory patio
My suspicion is that they are not completely analyzed in Plex for some reason and the duration filter is keeping them out of the collection.
That's a difference between what's driving the displays in those two screenshots.
young comet
I have now created the collection directly in Plex. However, I can't find a way to filter by duration in Plex. Does this even exist, why can I filter by this attribute via Kometa? 🤔
ivory patio
Things have durations, Kometa can see them, Kometa can apply a filter on a list of items based on that.
young comet
I have now taken the "Title" attribute for my Smart Collection in Plex and left it empty. Is this also possible in Kometa?
In short: I want to create a Smart Collection in which I have the most recently added elements sorted by date added.
Otherwise I don't need any other attributes.
young comet
Ok, I have found the problem. 🙈 The video files were faulty, so no duration could be determined. So the filter didn't work and the movies weren't shown under recently added. Thank you very much for your help!
