-View count less than 1
-First Aired after 01-01-2014
Which works until i add a full season or two to the library, Which means i have to scroll through 24 or 48 episodes of a show until i get to a TV Show that's currently airing. And there is no way to "group" these TV shows unless they are in "TV Show Playlist" rather than a "Episode Playlist"
That sounds very similar to my use case for which I implemented the patch in this thread.
If I acquire a new show for which I am not up-to-date, I do not want that to show up in my "New Shows" playlist. I only want to see episodes that are recent for shows that I do not have a back-catalog to work through.
With my tv shows tag patch, I can tag tv shows as "Active", and set up the episode playlist as:
- View count less than 1
- Has the TV Show tag of "Active".
or maybe:
- View count less than one
- Does not have the TV show tag of "Catching up"
- Not aired in the last X days (90 or 180 for X, I think)
When I am up-to-date on a show (or it is a new show), I can put tag that TV show with "Active" and it will show up on my new episode playlist. Or I inverse tag shows I am catching up on with "Catching up" so it does not show up as a new live episode. The X days is just so I don't have to tag old shows that finished sometime ago if I decide I want to watch them.
My other use case is to also tag shows as being only for me or my partner so I can set up more targeted "new shows" playlists for unshared content that we do not watch together.
Maybe you can use my patch in this way?
