Support for new TV series scanner

[flammable]

Hey guys -

I know this is brand new and still in beta, so my hunch is that it's not supported yet - if not, I'll hold off from switching my TV show libraries.

https://forums.plex.tv/t/beta-new-plex-tv-series-scanner/696242

I didn't see any discussions or issues on this. Sorry if it's already been covered!

Thanks for your work on this script!

@flammable we rely on PlexAPI library:

• https://pypi.org/project/PlexAPI/

so, check if they have support for it, and update it here.

I added the code changes from movie section to the show section and it seems to work. Only problem I have is that episodes that I watch a second time are not represented in trakt history.

@wandabastyle It'd be really awesome if you're willing to submit a pull request for that! It sounds like #152 was a step towards recording multiple views for Plex media.

In def process_show_section below guid = show.guid I added:

if guid.startswith('plex://show/'):
    if len(show.guids) > 0:
    logging.debug("trying first alternative guid: " + str(show.guids[0].id))
        guid = show.guids[0].id
    x = provider = None

And after the next continue:

elif 'imdb' in guid:
    x = guid.split('//')[1]
    x = x.split('?')[0]
    provider = 'imdb'

It's the same change which was made to the movie section previously, but it works.
Dunno if this is the way to go as I just copied it. Also I don't know how this impacts on performance.

Sorry about the formatting, I have no idea how the github editor works.

Thanks for this! I hope it's incorporated it into a release!

This is solved:

• Support for new TV series scanner #144 (reply in thread)

unfortunately, discussions can't be "closed", they will stay "open" forever.

[glensc]

discussions can be closed now. closed it.

[flammable]

I think this might still be open, as I can reply.

to prevent replies it's called locking.
