Is it possible to print out a list of movies that are in 4k or 1080p etc on your server?

Had a recent data loss and trying to figure out which movies or tv shows may have been deleted or not working.
Also trying to figure out how to print out a data base to show my movies that I have collected that are 1080 p ,4 k or under 1080p

Maybe the developers can make something like this so people can manage what movies they have?
Thanks

Thank you for the helpful response.
Before I commit to installing this 3rd party software is this software endorsed by the developers of plex ? I am worried about my account being compromised as microsoft is giving me a warning not to install. I am trying to figure out if anyone has looked at the source code or if the source code is open source so someone else can look at it ?

Thanks!

See link above on GitHub (incl. source code).

If you’re uncomfortable with Webtools, which you shouldn’t be, you can always just download/install sqlitestudio (or similar) and run the following SQL against your plex DB

SELECT md.library_section_id,md.title,m.height,p.file 
FROM metadata_items md 
inner join media_items m ON m.metadata_item_id=md.id 
inner join media_parts p on m.id=p.media_item_id 
WHERE  md.library_section_id = X

that will give you the resolution,title, and filepath/filename.
where X is the ID of your film library

That’s sadly only due to the dev can’t afford to buy a certificate, making the binaries unsigned :frowning:

Above is also mentioned in the release page

Has anyone looked at the source code? Is it open source? Do you have to enter your plex password?

I have :smiley:

(Disclamer, I wrote it)

Yes, and code is here:

Yes, but they are not stored, nor logged anywhere.
What happens is that after a successful login, the app get’s a user token from plex.tv, and use that to first get a list of your servers, and then to authenticate towards them, in order to do the export

Specific login code is here:

thanks for looking this up. I guess since the code is open source this can be verified.

I will try out the app
