Desire a view for untagged content in media folders

Feature Suggestions
1

Mistagged or untagged content happens, of course. Metadata can't be located in TheTVDB (or similar). The file(s) are misnamed for appropriate detection, etc. In my case, I have an RSS feed that tells me what's coming in, so I can manually detect when something that's come in hasn't shown up, and start hunting around for it.

 

But wouldn't it be nicer if we could just pop into a view within the web UI (or even other clients) that allowed us to see this untagged content, and then perhaps give us an easy way to map metadata to it and/or rename the file(s)?

I agree with this. I have a lot of foreign movies that have no metadata available online so it would be nice to be able to watch them via plex. They don't even show up, as far as I can tell, in plex web.

Put them in a "Home movie" section should be helpfull here

Well, I know we're only supposed to "like" on the main posting to indicate our interest. But something odd I've noticed is that likes on a main posting don't qualify as "recently updated" to bump a post up on the list. Seems like we'd want that, no?

Not to split hairs, but liking the OP in F&BV is primarily to tally interest for the developers.

If "votes" kept moving threads to the top, you would end up with a bunch of stuff that hadn't really been updated crowding out and obfuscating threads that had actual new posts with thoughtful ideas in them ... oh, right, that's what +1s have already done to this forum! :lol:

For those who might be interested, there's a cool github project running for a PLEX channel to help accomplish this functionality. Check it out!

Boxee got this functionality and it's extremely useful to know what content is not indexed properly.

Yeah, I'm not sure why there seems to be so much resistance to this concept here. But oh well, at least someone has an effort going to bridge the gap. Yay!

I really would appreciate this, thanks for making the thread.

How about just having an "Unmatched" section where it throws everything that it can't match?

As a follow-up, we are almost ready for V1.0 of the plug-in

s_razor seems to have cracked the timeout issue if scanning very large sections, and hopefully we'll release V1.0 very soon

I… can’t believe this isn’t implemented - the plug-in space isn’t the place to assume unmet need is met. I have been pushing for this for literally years here.

2022 clean-up: implemented (filter Unmatched items in a library)
