Find out which episodes you are missing I wrote a very simple web application that will look up a show from your Plex library and tell you which shows you are missing using TVDB. It is a single web page that contacts your Plex server. You must have PHP installed to use and have a web server running. Its really simple to use. Just open the tvclass.php and make sure the $PlexURL = .. points to your server. Next put it on any web server and enjoy finding missing episodes. ---

Cool, works great! But you need to disable secure access to PMS to make it work. ---

Ya, I forgot to mention that. Secure access doesn’t currently work. I’ll add secure access in the next couple days. ---

This is seriously amazing, I am forever grateful! You saved me so much time with this, If you continue to update it please let me us know. An option to search all shows at once and just pull up missing episodes would be nice as well! Thanks again, great job. ---

This is a great script. I have one question, when a episode has an “original aired” date in the future aka the episode has not aired yet your script reports “Missing” can you maybe change this in “Comming” or “Not aired” Thx for your great script. Rob. ---

This is great, will give it a spin in my new plex set up next week. I would however prefer to have this built in to plex as my feature request suggests: [http://forums.plexapp.com/index.php/topic/31193-indicate-when-tv-series-got-new-episodesold-missing-episode/page\_\_p\_\_201716#entry201716](http://forums.plexapp.com/index.php/topic/31193-indicate-when-tv-series-got-new-episodesold-missing-episode/page __p__ 201716#entry201716) ---

Splendid. Took me a while to figure out how to set up the server etc. But I want to learn php and web development in the future anyway, so I enjoyed the process. Thank you very much for this great tool. ---

Hey all, If it's useful to those following this, I wrote a bash script that's got some extra features, such as showing missing seasons, all missing episodes, or just missing episodes between your lowest and highest downloaded episode per season. See: [https://forums.plex.tv/topic/121345-app-shell-script-to-identify-missing-seasonsepisodes/](https://forums.plex.tv/topic/121345-app-shell-script-to-identify-missing-seasonsepisodes/) Thanks. ---
