21.12

Version 21.12

Collections:

Added:

• Autocollection for Marvel Cinematic Universe
• Popular, Top Rated and Recommended collections
  • Requires TheMovieDB api key for this to work.
  • Popular is based on popular movies on TheMovieDb
  • Top Rated is based on the top rated on TheMovieDb
  • Recommended requires Tautulli to work
    • Takes the most popular movie as seen on the Tautulli home page and finds the recommended movies from TheMovieDB
• Config options added to enable/disable each collection

Changes:

• Changed the logic behind the colleciton creation. Collections are now Smart collections so the script doesn't need to be re-run for Films to be added.
  • Smart collection creation is almost instant
  • Existing Disney/Pixar collections will be converted into Smart collections.
  • If you have a Collection called 'Marvel Cinematic Universe' this will be converted into a smart collection
  • Option to use a default poster for Disney, Pixar and Marvel Cinematic Universe.
  • Exisiting artwork for these collections will be transfered to new smart collections unless default collection artwork is enabled in the config.
• Collections are handled as a single script. Individual scripts can be enabled/disabled in the config page.

Posters 4K:

Added:

• Dolby Atmos and DTS:X banners for your films.

Changes:

• The script now saves the temp posters to RAM rather than to disk. This should help with corrupted posters.
• Posters are uploaded once rather than after addiong each individual banner. (4k/HDR banners are handled separately from Audio banners as audio banners are applied to all your films, not just 4k or HDR versions.)
• Dolby vision detection has been re-worked for updates to Media Info so should work porperly now.
• Truncated images are logged
• Temp posters are created with the film title to avoid uploading the incorrect posters to other films.

  • All new options default to empty or false.
