Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/tubearchivist/tubearchivist-plex/issues/24

I've read the documentation.

I have read the current limitations, and confirmed that this hasn't been requested as a feature request previously.

Your Feature Request

When using Plex to watch TA content, you must manually mark videos as watched to use TA features such as auto-delete.

Describe the solution you'd like

When a video is watched on Plex, the watch status should be updated in TA to match. In Plex, the watched status can be set by watching a video or using the mark as watched or as unwatched menu options. This change would allow you to use TA with the Plex plugin like the other media collection managers.

Additional context

If real-time syncing isn't an option, then a scheduled job would be an acceptable solution.

Your help is needed!

Yes, I will work on this in the next few days or weeks.

@lamusmaser commented on GitHub (Nov 9, 2023):

Recommendation noted. We will see if this interaction is possible.

To-do:

Determine if a Plex call to watch/mark a video as watched can be caught
Determine if a Plex call to watch/mark a video as watched can send a trigger
Write API call to TubeArchivist with watched request when trigger is seen
Create sync between TA and Plex watch status.

I would like this feature, mainly so I can use the auto delete watched for some channels.

For my use case running it as a cron checking the status daily would be enough, and I imaging much easier than a real time sync, and could be a good first step for this feature

@lamusmaser any progress on this one? This is about the only feature stopping me from using tubearchivest more and more

I've had other obligations and haven't been able to develop against it. It is still in my plan to do so here within the next few months, all things going well.
