Due to the nature of shows, how will they be tagged as "done" or "downloaded" as the movies are? There's many options:
1. Should I just never and take the assumption that it's in SickRage and with active status that they'll show up
2. Do I check and see how many episodes are downloaded, and if there's at least 1 say it's done?
3. Do I check if it's aired already at least one episode and then mark it?
4. I'm sure there's other variables to use...suggestions?
I am thinking simple is better here...
1. Check if show exists in SB/SR
2. If Yes, tell user it is already added to Plex. (do not log it nor update the episodes status if missing as I might not want the first 6 seasons of Buffy to download *wait, of course I do!)
3. If No, add full show to SB/SR, mark all as wanted
a. On show added to SB/SR mark as done. (don't bother confirming if it downloaded or not as there are ignored episodes, bad torrents/nzb and just so many checks to make.)
b. Just display "Show Name - First Aired Date"
My two show cents
P.S. tv_search branch is working great man! Not run into any bugs so far on my test server.
A nice, simple change would be to perhaps make the downloaded items a darker color rather than striking them through, for easier reading. And perhaps being able to sort/filter the list? I have a lot of requests and it's a little unwieldy it currently being in the order of addition.

I was thinking of doing something like that. And update new version, I've added a radio selector to switch between search types!

Sorting is on the list but down the line only. Possible idea, but not sure how that would work with readability though?
That works too, however I think I'll change how the URL get's generated. Right now it's using "Meteor.absoluteUrl()" which get's the variable from ROOT_URL. But assuming you're not serving from a sub directory I should be able to get it to work with just a "/plex". I'll test later and update as needed.
For those users on Windows, I've written a quick post on how to install Plex Requests the easiest way that will allow easy and seamless updating using Git. You can find it here http://8bits.ca/blog/installing-plexrequests-windows/ if you're interested. Of note I will be merging dev and master on Wednesday so I can work on TV Series requests.
I just must be missing something here. Installed Git, used Git GUI to clone the rep, downloads successfully. But - "You can open up your command prompt, navigate to the folder, and run meteor.." isn't exactly working for me. Is there an exe of some sort in that folder that I should be able to run from within cmd?

You need to navigate to the parent folder of the project. In the example you would "cd" (Change directory) to "C:\plexrequests-meteor\" From this directory, you type "meteor" to start the meteor process. There is no exe, the "meteor" process get's added to your PATH when you install Meteor.

This is the dir of the folder after the cloning process - I´m guessing there's something missing?
C:\plexreq>dir
Volume in drive C has no label.
Volume Serial Number is DAA5-837C
@Loken, can you point me to a tutorial on how to push this out to Heroku?
Honestly? No, I've tried it a few times myself but with no luck. It should be possible by using the demeteorizer tool to convert it to a plan vanilla node.js application but it keeps failing for me. I'd look into getting a nodejs application up onto Heroku. There are a few build packs that are suppose to be for meteor applications as well. Personally I'm waiting for Meteor to get their product out so I can just type "meteor deploy" (and not on a dev server, even though it's pretty stable right now).
Guess you might want some feedback on the TV alpha version:
For TV
1. Links on added versions (dereferer.org goes to imdb.com)
2. Change request movie button to request series
3. How does series get marked as complete? everything downloaded? including extras?
For Movies
A setting for removing movies thats complete from the list.
If my setting in CP is to always get 720p but still get lower quality but never gets marked as done untill better quality, will plexrequests still mark it as undone?

- Changed to go to thetvdb
2. Change request movie button to request series
- It's just request now
3. How does series get marked as complete? everything downloaded? including extras?
- Currently they don't as the information available is limited from SickRage and TV shows aren't like movies where it's an all or nothing, but still open for ideas on what to do
For Movies
A setting for removing movies thats complete from the list.
- Currently you'd have to use the admin panel for that, however movies do get removed from the "Requested list" that users see after 14 days

- The done status is pulled from CP when it shows up under the "Manage" tab, so I'm not sure how CP handles those movies but that's where I get the status. I'd assume it wouldn't tag it as done if it's waiting for a different version but I'm not sure, that's a CP question
Also if you have a backlog of future additions, hook it up to sabnbz and list out the "qued GB, or episodes" or some other stats that might be relayed to the frontpage.

Does it work same as Sonarr? And I honestly don't know if that info is available, it's not from SickRage last I checked.
