Multiple Movie/Show Libraries about popularplex HOT 8 CLOSED

I cannot specify a library for the Tautulli API lookup, but when fetching TV items there is _show.librarySectionID which can be compared to only add items for the specified libraries in the config.ini. This would require another API call looking up library names -> id (I already do this in clear_collections()) and eliminate any Anime TV Shows from appearing in the 'Popular TV Shows' collection. It would result in less items in the collection overall (ex. 10 items on Tautulli 4 of which are anime = 6 tv shows total).

Additionally we could also add support for an optional Anime category to create dynamic collections based on a 3rd category name/id.

thats why i suggested in option 2 asking for more movies/shows then you actually need and just adding up to the right amount. So if the count is 10 then say we have a buffer option that is also 10 well then the program could grab 20 movies but only add 10 to the list

While I like this idea, there's no Tautulli API to lookup media play counts, I haven't looked into their SQL DB to see if they store plays.

How many results do you get returned for popular TV?

Example:
http://plexpy/api/v2?apikey=APIKEY&cmd=get_home_stats&time_range=7

from popularplex.

just do this to specify how many you want to be returned
http://plexpy/api/v2?apikey=APIKEY&cmd=get_home_stats&time_range=7&count=NUMBER_TO_RETURN
so if the user wants a 10 movie list but has multiple libraries they can set a "buffer" of lets say 10 and then you add them together and throw 20 in as NUMBER_TO_RETURN and then check each one while adding to the library to make sure its in the right section and only add up to their original desired amount in this case 10

I have made a change to the master branch which should solve some of these issues.

You can configure the stat_count for the API request in the config file to a number (say 20). It will now only add media if the library matches the library IDs configured in the config.ini, so it should exclude your anime from the TV Shows collection.

Test the functionality and let me know what you think, we could also add a 'Limit' config option to stop adding to collections if there's 10 items already since currently it will add all 20 items from Movies to the Movies collection.

I have added the functionality to limit the number of items in a collection

I am assuming this issue has been resolved with the latest changes, if it still occurs please open a new issue.

Yea that's fine seems like the best option for now unless the api changes to allow for specific section tops
