I’m looking to use Plex as a Tivo replacement, and the one thing I really miss is the ability to sort grouped shows by last aired. So whatever show most recently had an aired episode would be listed at the top. It would be even better if I could filter out shows that have no unwatched episodes. Is there any way to do this? I’m running plex on FreeNAS and PlexConnect.
When using Plex connect the recently aired episodes should show up under the on deck section inside the TV shows library. I believe it’s also possible to filter for unwatched TV shows only by using the top list while viewing all shows. Not sure about that one. I’ll check when I get home.
So the issue is that I don’t want to see individual episodes listed, I want to see shows. Also, On Deck does seem to display the oldest unwatched episode, but if I have an old series it can show up first in that list. Since the list has limited space, I won’t see other, more recently aired series. I would like a sort that isn’t trying to outhink me; just a list of series (Simpsons, Family Guy, etc) ordered by most recently aired episode. Even better if it can sort by most recently aired unwatched episode. I can figure out how to order by “first air date,” but that orders by the date of the oldest episode in each series.
