Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/tubearchivist/tubearchivist-plex/issues/37

I've read the documentation.

I'm running the latest version of the TubeArchivist Plex Integration Scanner and Agent. I have read the latest release notes and installation instructions.

Operating System

Proxmox LXC Debian

Your Bug Report

Describe the bug

If you add a "Show" to a Collection in Plex, the Show's Collections tags are erased when a new "Episode" is added and the metadata is updated by the Agent.

Steps To Reproduce

Add Show to Collection
Download new Episode to Show in TA
Scan Files in Plex

Expected behavior

When TA-Plex agent updates Show metadata, Collections and other tags should not be overwritten.

Relevant log output

Will provide logs if absolutely necessary, but I don't think they're needed for this case.

Anything else?

No response

Acknowledged, but needs additional testing and checks.

At this point, it will require the playlist feature to be researched further. Once I have more details on how Plex and its Agent are interacting with the Collections function, then I can preserve non-TA Collections and Playlists before/during my build out of that feature.

This is projected as a potential feature of v0.2.0, but it will be determined after I have done more research and testing.

This is probably going to be included as part of the effort with v0.2.0 release, due to the complexity of the playlists functionality.
